In 2023, salted or in brine cod imports to the UK amounted to approximately 412.7 thousand US dollars. Recent forecasts indicate a gradual decline in the import value, with figures descending from 407.44 thousand in 2024 to 386.7 thousand US dollars in 2028. This suggests a slight but steady contraction over the forecast period. The year-on-year variation shows a consistent decrease, emphasizing a downward trend in imports. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast signals an overall negative growth, reflecting a declining demand or possibly shifting supply dynamics.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of changing trade policies or tariffs on import costs.
Fluctuations in global cod supply due to environmental factors or fishing regulations.
Changes in consumer preferences which might affect demand for imported cod.
