A dive into the Fish & Seafood industry
16 Aug 2023
The global annual consumption of fish per person has reached a record level of over 20.5 kg, with a projected increase of 15% by 2030, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Besides being a delicious source of protein, fish and seafood offer numerous health benefits.
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, they promote heart and brain health. Additionally, their affordable production cost and lower carbon footprint compared to other animal-based foods make them an environmentally friendly food.
Besides being a delicious and versatile source of protein, there are many reasons the amount of seafood is increasingly showing up in consumers’ diets these days. There are three main factors to influence this dynamic:
-
Health benefits: fish and seafood play an essential role in food security, being nutritionally valuable thanks to omega-3 fatty acids, which help protect both people’s heart and brain.
- Affordable production cost compared to animal protein sources.
- Environmentally friendly food, the fishing sector offers proteins with a much lower carbon footprint than any other animal-based foods.
However, FAO warns that the global population is also increasing rapidly. It is therefore essential that the sustainable production of fish and seafood is extended to avoid overfishing, a potential threat with the already significantly increasing demand. Additionally, any food waste is to be avoided.
