In 2023, the production of inshore squids for human consumption in France was recorded at 5.62 thousand metric tons. From 2024 onwards, forecasted data shows a steady increase in squid production: 6.02 thousand metric tons in 2024, rising to 7.6 thousand metric tons by 2028. This consistent growth equates to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.8% over the five-year period. The year-on-year variations indicate an upward trend in production, with annual increases ranging from 6.64% to 5.41%.

Future trends to watch for include:

Technological advancements in capture fisheries that could further enhance squid production efficiency.
Potential impacts of climate change on squid habitats affecting production levels.
Increasing demand for sustainable seafood, potentially driving more investments in responsible squid fishing practices.
