The UK's fresh blue mussel production in capture fisheries is expected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028, starting at 919.82 thousand euros in 2024 and reaching 1021.8 thousand euros by 2028. This represents an increase of nearly 11% over five years. The year-on-year growth averages around 2.7%, showing a consistent upward trend. This positive projection follows actual production data from 2023, which serve as a baseline for forecasting.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of environmental changes on mussel supply.
Shifts in consumer demand for sustainable seafood options.
Regulatory changes in the fisheries sector that could influence production volumes.
