The production volumes of fishing and aquaculture in Sweden indicated a steady increase between 2013 to 2018, peaking at 2.52 billion SEK in 2018. This upward trend was disrupted in 2019, showing a significant year-on-year decline of 13.12%, followed by another drop in 2020. Although the sector rebounded in 2021 with a 14.21% increase, the growth plateaued from 2022, with values stabilizing around 2.27 billion SEK in 2023.
From 2024 onwards, forecasts predict a slight decline in production volumes with a 5-year CAGR of -0.17%. Predicted volumes stabilize around 2.23 billion SEK by 2028, indicating very marginal changes in production.
Key future trends to watch for include the impact of environmental policies on fishing practices, advancements in sustainable aquaculture technologies, and market demand fluctuations driven by changing dietary preferences and global economic conditions.
