In 2023, the value of alive fresh brill production in capture fisheries in France was greater than the forecasted value for 2024. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast indicates a steady decline in value from 10.13 to 5.88 thousand euros per metric ton, demonstrating a shrinking market trend. Year-on-year, this represents a decrease of 10.7% from 2025 to 2026, and a noticeable further decline in subsequent years. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over five years is negative, underlining a consistent reduction in unit value.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of sustainable fishing practices and potential regulatory changes. Additionally, market shifts towards alternative sources of seafood or changes in consumer preferences could further influence brill pricing and production volumes.
