The import of fresh or chilled whole plaice to Italy is projected to show a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. The value decreases each year by less than 1%, indicating a very gradual reduction. From a volume of 240.26 thousand kilograms in 2024, it is forecasted to drop to 234.74 thousand kilograms by 2028.
Year-on-year percentage change shows minor negative growth, reflective of stable yet declining demand. Without 2023 data, exact historical trends are indeterminable, but the projected sustained negative CAGR over five years outlines a slow contraction in the market.
Future Trends to Watch:
- The impact of sustainable fishing practices and regulatory changes.
- Consumer preference shifts towards alternative seafood types.
- Price competitiveness and supply chain factors affecting imports.
