The European market for fresh tunas, bonitos, and billfishes in capture fisheries for human consumption is led by Spain, accounting for nearly half of the market share. Italy and France follow, with Italy showing a steady growth and France reflecting a moderate increase in recent data. Portugal, though significant, experienced a slight decline, while Greece remained stable. Noteworthy growth is seen in Norway, suggesting a potential emerging market. The data from 2023 reflects these changes, with an annual average growth trend visible over the past five years.
Future trends to watch include the increasing contribution from lesser-participating countries like Norway, driven by significant year-on-year growth, as well as potential market instability due to minor declines seen in smaller regions like Cyprus and Slovenia. The overall diversification of the market share with possible emerging markets could influence the European landscape of fish production markedly by 2024 and beyond.
