The production of alive fresh aquatic animals in capture fisheries in France is forecasted to increase steadily from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the production stood at 52.35 thousand metric tons, providing a basis for projected growth. The year-on-year growth rate from 2024 to 2028 is approximately 2%, with a consistent increase in production volumes observed over each consecutive year. From 2024 through 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects this robust trend, emphasizing a steady upward trajectory in the industry.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems, which could influence fish populations and availability.
Advancements in sustainable fishing technologies that may improve catch efficiency and environmental impact.
Regulatory changes in EU fishing policies that could affect quotas and market dynamics.
