In 2023, the per capita consumption of fish fillets in batter or breadcrumbs in Germany stood at approximately 2.00 kilograms. The forecasted period from 2024 to 2028 indicates a subtle, steady decline in consumption per capita, decreasing from 1.99 kilograms in 2024 to 1.95 kilograms in 2028. Year-on-year percentage reductions are minor, showing about a 0.5% decrease annually. Over the five-year forecasted period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) implies a consistent downward trend, influenced potentially by dietary shifts or a growing preference for alternative protein sources.

Future trends to monitor include:

The impact of health and sustainability trends on consumer preferences, potentially leading to further declines.
Technological advancements in the production of alternative fish products which might attract traditional consumers.
Market shifts driven by economic factors and their effect on discretionary spending on food items.
