Global Fish Market Growth Analysis - Market Size, Share, Forecast Trends and Outlook Report (2025-2034)

There is a growing awareness and interest in sustainable fishing practices and responsible aquaculture. This trend is shaping the seafood industry by encouraging businesses and consumers to seek seafood from sources that do not over-exploit marine resources or harm the environment. The Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA) has developed the Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) certification program, which sets standards for responsible aquaculture practices.

As per industry reports, global aquaculture production has increased by 250% between 2000 and 2015, while the use of wild fish for feed has declined. Moreover, aquaculture's reliance on wild fish has been weakening due to improvements in feed conversion efficiency and the use of plant-based ingredients in fish feed. This has resulted in fish market development.

The introduction of advanced tools and technologies, such as drone technology, precision fishing, and big data analytics, is enhancing the efficiency of the fishing industry. This trend is reducing waste, improving product quality, and making fishing practices more environment friendly. The impact is increased productivity and better resource management in the fishing sector.

Among regions, Asia Pacific dominates the fish market share as China is the world's largest producer of seafood, accounting for a significant portion of both wild catch and aquaculture production.

Seafood producers are increasingly recognising the importance of mitigating climate change and adapting to its impacts, such as ocean acidification and rising sea temperatures. This trend is driving research and innovation in more resilient species, investment in developing plant-based and cell-based seafood production methods, and the development of alternative feed sources.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has recommended the development of climate-resilient aquaculture species, such as tilapia and catfish, which can better withstand changes in water temperature and pH levels.
