Dublin, July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Fishing Market Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, and Forecast 2025-2034 | Global Industry Growth, Competitive Landscape, Opportunities, and Challenges" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global fishing market, appraised at USD 616.8 billion in 2025, is on a growth trajectory, projected to expand at a CAGR of 6.4%, reaching USD 1.07 trillion by 2034.

This dynamic sector integrates commercial and recreational fishing, addressing the rising demand for seafood while navigating sustainability pressures. Key drivers include the escalation in seafood consumption as a primary protein source, alongside the environmental implications of overfishing, which propel innovations in sustainable fishing practices. These advancements encompass eco-friendly fishing gear and regulations aimed at safeguarding marine populations.

Recreational fishing is witnessing a surge, aided by coastal tourism. The introduction of technological solutions like GPS-equipped vessels and automated fish detection systems is enhancing operational efficiency, minimizing environmental disruption. In 2024, sustainability and technology further influence market trends. The intensified focus on aquaculture is notable as wild fish stocks face increased pressure. Modern fish farming techniques, especially recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), enable sustainable seafood production in land-based environments, easing the burden on natural fisheries.

Sustainable practices, such as biodegradable nets and bycatch reduction techniques, are gaining momentum, driven by regulatory measures from governments and environmental organizations. Additionally, alternative seafood products, including plant-based and lab-grown options, are transforming market dynamics, spurred by environmentally conscious consumers.

Looking into the future, the market anticipates a more profound integration of advanced technologies with sustainability at its core. Innovations such as blockchain for seafood traceability are geared to become widespread, enhancing transparency in supply chains. Smart fishing tools, encompassing automated catch systems and drones, are set to advance efficiency while curtailing environmental impact. The pivot towards plant-based and alternative protein sources promises to disrupt traditional consumption patterns further. Certifications like Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) are increasingly demanded by consumers advocating for sustainable sources.

Key market trends include:

• Sustainable Fishing Practices: Biodegradable nets and bycatch reduction methods are becoming standard to protect marine life.
• Growth of Aquaculture: Enhanced fish farming techniques such as RAS offer sustainable solutions.
• Alternative Seafood Products: Both plant-based and lab-grown seafood are on the rise, reducing ecological footprints.
• Technology Integration: Smart equipment like GPS-enabled vessels and automated systems boost efficiency.
• Blockchain for Seafood Traceability: This technology ensures transparency and ethical sourcing in the seafood supply chain.
