(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Sustainability Gains Ground Through Innovations in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems and Eco-Friendly Feed Alternatives

Dublin, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Salmon Fish Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2025-2034" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Salmon Fish Market was valued at USD 19.1 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 44.4 billion by 2034, rising at a CAGR of 8.8%. Increasing consumer preference for nutritious, high-quality seafood, particularly rich in proteins and omega-3 fatty acids, is a major driver.

Sustainability is also becoming a core focus, pushing advancements in aquaculture. Technologies such as recirculating aquaculture systems and sustainable feeds are making production more efficient while reducing environmental impact. However, challenges such as overfishing, habitat destruction, climate change, and pollution are putting pressure on wild populations, affecting biodiversity and species dependent on salmon for survival. Despite these concerns, innovations in farming and regulatory efforts are helping stabilize supply and meet rising global demand.

By species, the market is divided into Atlantic and Pacific salmon. The Atlantic segment is projected to hold 72.9% of the market due to its high protein and omega-3 content. Emerging markets are expected to contribute significantly to its growth. Meanwhile, the Pacific segment, valued at USD 5.1 billion in 2024, is forecasted to reach USD 12.4 billion by 2034, with a CAGR of 9.2%. While known for its superior taste and nutritional profile, overfishing and climate change are impacting wild stocks.
By form, fresh salmon is anticipated to account for 42.4% of the market in 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 8.5%. Consumers prioritize fresh options for their nutritional value, with fillets and steaks being popular choices. The frozen segment is set to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% due to its extended shelf life and convenience, making it a preferred option for large-scale processors and retailers. Smoked salmon remains a premium product with strong demand, particularly in high-income regions. Canned salmon, available in various types, is a budget-friendly option widely accepted in North America and Europe. Other forms, including salmon roe, jerky, and ready-to-eat meals, cater to convenience-focused consumers seeking high-protein alternatives.
By distribution channel, supermarkets are expected to dominate with a 54.2% share in 2024, offering an extensive selection of fresh, frozen, and canned salmon. Convenience stores, growing at a CAGR of 9.5%, are seeing rising demand for ready-to-eat and packaged salmon products. Online retail, valued at USD 3.7 billion in 2024, is projected to reach USD 8.5 billion by 2034, driven by subscription models and bulk discounts.
The United States remains a key market, with an estimated value of USD 5.1 billion in 2024, set to grow to USD 10 billion by 2034. Farmed Atlantic salmon continues to gain traction due to its year-round availability and lower cost compared to wild-caught options. Shipments of fresh and frozen salmon have seen a notable increase, indicating strong market momentum.
