Dublin, Aug. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Carp Market by Type (Bighead Carp, Common Carp, Crucian Carp), Form (Canned, Fresh, Frozen), Sales Channel - Forecast 2024-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Carp Market grew from USD 106.62 billion in 2023 to USD 112.48 billion in 2024. It is expected to continue growing at a CAGR of 5.63%, reaching USD 156.46 billion by 2030.
Growing consumer demand for organically farmed carp, which adheres to stringent farming practices free from chemicals and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) may create growth potential in the market. The development of processed products such as ready-to-cook meals, smoked preparations, and health-centric offerings could cater to changing consumer preferences, generating opportunities for market expansion.
However, carp farming often faces criticism for potentially harmful impacts on local ecosystems, such as water pollution and displacement of native fish species, limiting the market scope. Issues such as mercury contamination and other pollutants may harm consumer perceptions, impacting demand adversely and creating challenges for market growth.
Regional Insights
In the Americas region, the United States and Canada have a relatively small carp market mainly driven by immigrant communities and niche consumers. Interest in carp is increasing in the United States slightly as local chefs seek sustainable and locally sourced options. Carp is generally underutilized in Canada, with some interest in areas where it is caught as a byproduct of other fishing activities. T
he market dynamics vary significantly across the EMEA region with differences in consumer preferences and regulatory environments. Countries including the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia have a robust market for carp, especially during festive seasons. There is limited commercial interest in carp in the Middle East region, with some regional consumption depending on immigrant populations and localized aquaculture projects. In Africa, interest in carp farming is growing to increase food security and provide employment.
The high population density and traditional inclusion of carp in the diet make the Asia-Pacific region the largest consumer of carp globally. China leads in both consumption and production, supported by a long history of aquaculture. Japan emphasizes on premium carp products, often linked to cultural festivities, driving a niche market for specific carp breeds. India is witnessing growth in carp consumption due to rising incomes and expanding market penetration.
