In 2023, the fresh European plaice production for human consumption in the UK capture fisheries was lower compared to the forecasts for the subsequent years. The forecast from 2024 through 2028 indicates a steady increase in value, with an average yearly growth rate (CAGR) pointing towards a rising trend. Year-on-year growth is consistent, demonstrating a positive and stable market outlook.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of regulatory changes in fishing quotas and environmental considerations, which could affect supply stability and market prices. Monitoring consumer demand for locally sourced seafood and sustainable fishing practices will also be crucial.
