Key Market Trends

Unprocessed Fresh/Chilled Fish Dominate the Market

The aquaculture market in Saudi Arabia is in the nascent stage of development, as compared to other Middle Eastern countries. In 2019, the fresh/chilled unprocessed fish segment in Saudi Arabia was estimated at USD 151.8 million and happens to be the largest segment by type. The segment is projected to reach USD 177.1 million by 2025, with a CAGR of 2.6% during the forecast period.

Processed Fish Segment is likely to Witness Significant Growth

Saudi Arabia is mostly dependent on the developing countries in South and Southeast Asia, South America, and Africa, toward meeting its domestic demand for fish and fish products. Processed shrimps, lobsters, caviars, and cuttlefish are mainly imported from Korea, Thailand, the Philippines, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Hong-Kong, Taiwan, and Argentina. According to the Saudi Society of Agricultural Sciences, as most of the seafood in the Kingdom is imported from other countries, their prices are usually high. In 2019, the market for processed fish in Saudi Arabia was estimated at USD 80.8 million, and it is projected to reach USD 101.1 million by 2025, with a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period.
