Rising awareness of benefits of seafood consumption is notably driving market growth. Sea bream, a nutrient-dense fish, has gained significant attention in the global market due to its health benefits. The last decade has seen a rise in the consumption of seafood, particularly in areas with high deficiencies of essential micronutrients, particularly among women and children. These populations often suffer from suboptimal nutritional status, leading to poor health conditions.
Sea bream, rich in low saturated fat, vitamin B6, selenium, and protein, plays a crucial role in addressing these nutritional gaps. The global sea bream market is expected to grow during the forecast period, driven by the increasing health consciousness and the adoption of protein-rich diets. This fish is available in various forms, including frozen, canned, and processed, catering to diverse consumer preferences. However, it is essential to ensure food safety to prevent foodborne illnesses. Export activities of sea bream have increased significantly due to its high demand. Thus, such factors are driving the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Growth of online retailing is the key trend in the market. The expansion of the Internet has led to a increase in e-commerce businesses worldwide, including the seafood industry. Consumers' increasing preference for convenient shopping and the ease of product discovery have fueled the growth of online retailing. This trend presents opportunities for seafood vendors to boost sales, expand their reach, and enhance customer relationships.
An online presence enables manufacturers and distributors to broaden their market scope, exploring new and emerging markets. For instance, in China, e-commerce platforms like Yiguo have become popular for seafood sales. Sustainable seafood, such as aquaculture-raised sea bream, is a significant category in this market. Vendors offer value-added products, including organic culture and nutritional fish feed, to cater to health-conscious consumers. Thus, such trends will shape the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Increasing illegal overfishing is the major challenge that affects the growth of the market. Overexploitation of fish stocks and environmental damage are major concerns, leading to a decrease in commercial fishing. Illegal, unregulated, and unreported fishing practices further exacerbate these issues. Aquaculture services have emerged as a viable alternative to commercial fishing, providing a more sustainable and controlled method for producing sea bream.
Fresh sea bream is increasingly being supplied to the food service industry, convenience stores, and specialty stores.
