From 2023 to 2028, the import volumes of frozen whole sardines, brisling, and sprats to France show a declining trend. The volume decreased year-on-year from 6.8442 million kilograms in 2024 to 6.461 million kilograms in 2028. Annual reductions average approximately 1.5% across this period. Looking back, 2023 marked the reference point just before these projections, highlighting a consistent downward trajectory in import volumes.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in fishing regulations impacting supply.
- Fluctuations in consumer demand for frozen seafood.
- Environmental factors affecting fish populations.
- Market entry of alternative, sustainable seafood sources.
