In 2023, Germany's import of prepared and preserved fish, crustaceans, and molluscs stood at 225.85 million kilograms. The forecasted values for 2024 to 2028 show a consistent, albeit modest, increase in import volume, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.27%. This suggests a stable demand for these products within Germany's market.
The year-on-year growth from 2024 to 2028 indicates a slight upward trend, with increments ranging from 0.22% to 0.21% annually. These minor increases are indicative of a steady growth market rather than a rapidly expanding one.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from global fishing regulations, sustainability initiatives, and shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative protein sources. Moreover, changes in EU trade policies or fluctuations in global seafood supply chains could influence import volumes significantly.
