Seafood Processing in France Industry Data and Analysis
The French seafood processing industry has undergone significant transformation. The industry has contended with supply constraints caused by stringent EU fishing quotas and the economic pressures of stagnating wages and high inflation. Processors have had to navigate a reduced supply of landed seafood as fishing quotas and Brexit have cut stock access. Fish landings dropped by over 17.4% between 2018 and 2023, forcing price hikes that boost revenue in the short term but drive down volume sales. These price increases have made seafood less affordable to French households, whose disposable incomes have stagnated over the past few years and driven more households to shift toward cheaper protein alternatives like poultry and pork.
