Study Overview
The fish and seafood market covers the consumption and distribution of seafood products, which includes fish, seafood and shellfish. This market is dominated by a few leading wholesalers, who supply several thousand independent retail players. The fish consumption is increasing sharply worldwide, mainly as a result of increased production, but also due to other factors such as improving distribution channels. At the national level, the market is particularly dynamic, driven by significant local consumption. Spaniards remain the largest consumers of seafood in Europe. The consumption of fish is equally important, making Spain a particularly buoyant market. While the vast majority of fish consumed in Spain is imported, Spain's imports of seafood products by value continues to grow, with an increase of greater than 6% in 2018. Domestic production is hanging on by relying on consumer appeal for product innovation and organic fish and seafood.
