In 2023, the production of whole fresh common squids in UK capture fisheries was at approximately 3.38 thousand metric tons. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 displays a consistent upward trend, with an expected increase from 3.48 to 3.86 thousand metric tons. This represents a year-on-year growth rate ranging from 2.8% to 2.5%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period is approximately 2.7%.
Looking ahead, future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on squid populations, shifts in demand due to consumer preferences, and regulations affecting capture fisheries. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for production stability and growth.
