Analyst Opinion

The Fish & Seafood market in Australia & Oceania is experiencing slow growth, influenced by factors such as changing consumer preferences, increasing health consciousness, and convenience of online services. The sub-markets of Canned, Dried & Smoked Fish and Fish Fingers & Portions also play a role in shaping the overall market. However, the negligible growth rate suggests that factors such as economic downturn and fluctuation in fish prices may be impacting the market's growth.

Customer preferences:
As consumers in Australia and Oceania become more health-conscious, there is a growing trend towards sustainable and ethically sourced processed fish and seafood products. This is driven by a desire for transparency and responsible consumption, as well as an increasing awareness of the environmental impact of traditional fishing practices. Additionally, there is a growing demand for plant-based and alternative protein options, reflecting evolving dietary preferences and a shift towards more sustainable and ethical food choices.

Additionally, there is a growing interest in alternative protein sources, such as plant-based seafood, which could have significant implications for traditional seafood producers.

Local special circumstances:
