Seafood Premiumization is Gaining Attention of Consumers in Global Seafood Market
Global seafood consumption has been growing steadily in recent years, and is now worth over $165 billion. This growth is being driven in part by a trend towards premiumization, with consumers increasingly willing to pay more for higher-quality seafood products. According to a new report from SKyQuest, this trend is being fueled by a number of factors, including a greater awareness of the health benefits of seafood, and a desire for more sustainable and ethical products. As a result, premium seafood brands are seeing strong growth, both in developed markets like Europe and North America, and in emerging markets such as China and India.
The report on the global seafood market highlights some of the key players in the premium seafood space, including MSC-certified brands which have seen sales grow by 20% annually since 2018. The report also identifies some of the challenges facing the premium seafood sector, such as ensuring sustainable supply chains and meeting the needs of increasingly environmentally conscious consumers.

China to Dominate Asia Pacific Seafood Market
In 2021, over 189 million tons of seafood was produced across the globe, out of which around 156 million tons was consumed. This is significantly up from 145 million tons in 2010. The majority of this seafood is consumed in Asia, where over 60% of the world's population lives. Not surprisingly, China is the biggest seafood consumer, followed by India, Indonesia, Japan, and the Philippines. The Asia Pacific region is the world’s largest consumer of seafood, accounting for more than 60% of global consumption. This is largely due to the large population in the region, as well as the fact that seafood is a staple in many Asian diets. In addition, the region has a growing middle class that has increased demand for higher-quality seafood products. As a result, the Asia Pacific seafood market is expected to continue to grow in the coming years.
The world’s seafood consumption has been on the rise in recent years. In 2021, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported that the global per capita seafood consumption was 20.5 kg – up from 19.7 kg in 2014. This increase is being driven by a growing global population and rising incomes, which are leading to higher demand for seafood. China is by far the biggest seafood consumer in the world, accounting for over a third of global seafood consumption. Other major consumers include Japan, India, Indonesia, and the United States. As seafood becomes more popular, there is a risk of overfishing and depletion of fish stocks. This would have serious consequences for both the environment and the livelihoods of people who depend on fishing for their livelihoods.
