Despite a stable growth trajectory, competition, and regulatory changes in the seafood industry, particularly related to sustainability and environmental impacts might influence this forecast.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer preferences and demand for sustainably sourced seafood products.
- Potential impacts of climate change on anchovy stocks and availability.
- Trade policies and tariffs that could affect import costs and dynamics.
- Technological innovations in aquaculture and food preservation methods.
