In 2023, France imported approximately 2.596 million kilograms of frozen rock lobster and other sea crawfish. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 suggests a slight but consistent decline, with imports projected to decrease gradually by 0.06% each year on average, leading to 2.5904 million kilograms by 2028. This reflects a stable, minimal contraction in import volumes.

Key trends to watch include:

Potential changes in global supply chain dynamics that may affect availability and prices.
Shifts in consumer preferences towards local or alternative seafood options.
Regulatory changes impacting seafood imports and sustainability standards.
