Based on the Product Insights, the market is segmented into Pelagic and Demersal.
- The pelagic segment held the largest market share of more than 60.0% in 2021. The rising popularity of fish food due to growing health consciousness among consumers will boost the market growth over the forecast period. Additionally, increasing consumption of pelagic fish has significantly reduced the level of micronutrient and protein malnutrition, thus accelerating market growth. Moreover, increasing consumption and production of pelagic fish in developing economies like India, China, and Indonesia due to more affordable pricing is propelling the growth of this segment.
- The demersal segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR of 3.0% from 2022 to 2028 due to the increasing demand for demersal fish as it is a valuable protein source for human consumption. Increasing consumption of seafood across the world, especially in developing countries, is anticipated to increase the product demand. However, regulations on seasonal fishing may restrain the growth of this product over the forecast period.
Based on the Form Insights, the market is segmented into Fresh and Frozen.
- The fresh segment captured the largest revenue share of more than 55.0% in 2021.
