In 2023, Japan imported approximately 284.25 million kilograms of frozen fish fillets. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase in imports, with projections rising from 289.04 to 307.55 million kilograms, suggesting a consistent upward trend. The year-on-year growth ranges from 1.65% to 1.54% during this period, reflecting a stable demand trajectory. Over these five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is calculated at approximately 1.62%, indicating a modest yet persistent growth.
Future trends to watch for include fluctuations in global fish supply due to climate change and economic factors affecting import stability and pricing. Additionally, shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood options might impact these forecasts.
