In 2023, Germany's import of frozen whole flatfish stood at an unspecified level. Forecast data for 2024 indicates an import volume of 219.78 thousand kilograms, decreasing steadily to 211.08 thousand kilograms in 2028. From 2024 to 2028, the year-on-year decline averages approximately 1.0%, suggesting a gradual decrease in demand or shifting market dynamics. This trend shows a consistent but modest negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in consumer preferences, sustainability concerns, or policy impacts that could influence import volumes, as well as competitive pressures from other seafood markets potentially affecting the flatfish sector.
