Fishmeal Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.62% through 2030

The emphasis on sustainable fishing practices and increasing shift in pet food industry is expected to drive the Global Fishmeal Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030.


According to TechSci Research report, “Fishmeal Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Global Fishmeal Market stood at USD 5.54 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.62% in the forecast period through 2030. 

The expansion of sustainable fishing practices is a crucial market driver that significantly influences the growth of the global fishmeal market. This driver is rooted in the increasing emphasis on responsible sourcing, environmental conservation, and certifications that promote the sustainability of fishery resources. The expansion of sustainable fishing practices is a response to growing concerns about overfishing and the environmental impact of traditional fishing methods. Sustainable fishing practices aim to harvest fish in a way that minimizes ecological disruption, maintains fish populations, and preserves the overall health of marine ecosystems. As these concerns gain prominence, there is a heightened focus on sourcing fish responsibly, driving the demand for fishmeal from certified sustainable fisheries.

Certification programs, such as the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and other eco-labeling initiatives, play a pivotal role in promoting sustainable fishing practices. Fisheries that adhere to these standards demonstrate responsible sourcing, ensuring that their operations are environmentally sustainable. As consumer awareness about these certifications increases, there is a growing preference for fishmeal derived from responsibly managed and certified fisheries, thereby driving the growth of the global fishmeal market. The marketability of seafood and related products is increasingly influenced by consumer preferences for sustainably sourced and environmentally friendly products. As consumers become more conscious of the environmental impact of their choices, there is a higher demand for fishmeal derived from fisheries that adhere to sustainable fishing practices. This preference for sustainability extends not only to the final seafood products but also to the feed ingredients used in aquaculture, contributing to the growth of the fishmeal market.

Many companies operating in the fishmeal industry, as well as those downstream in the aquaculture and food sectors, are incorporating sustainable and responsible sourcing practices into their corporate social responsibility initiatives. This strategic alignment with environmental sustainability not only meets ethical standards but also enhances the reputation and market position of businesses. As a result, there is an increased focus on procuring fishmeal from sources that prioritize sustainable fishing practices. Governments and international bodies are increasingly recognizing the need for sustainable fisheries management. Regulatory frameworks and policy support that encourage sustainable fishing practices contribute to the growth of the global fishmeal market. By incentivizing responsible sourcing and penalizing unsustainable practices, governments play a crucial role in shaping industry behavior and driving the adoption of sustainable fishing methods.

Technological advancements are playing a pivotal role in the growth of the global fishmeal market. Innovations in fishmeal production processes, such as improved rendering techniques, extraction methods, and quality control measures, contribute to the production of higher-quality fishmeal. These advancements not only enhance the nutritional content of the final product but also improve the overall efficiency and sustainability of fishmeal production. Additionally, the application of data analytics, automation, and precision aquaculture technologies is optimizing the formulation of aquafeed, ensuring a balanced and targeted nutritional profile that includes fishmeal.
