Global Herring Market is valued at approximately USD XX billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than XX% over the forecast period 2022-2029. Herring refers to a variety of fish species that belong to the Clupeidae family and are mostly found in shallow, waters of the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, including the Baltic Sea, and off the west coast of South America. Herrings are considered rich in essential nutrients including vitamin B12 and vitamin D. Moreover, consumption of herring offers various health benefits such as it improves brain function and maintaining healthy nerve cells as well as helping the body in creating red blood cells. The increasing aquaculture production worldwide and growing health concerns are key factors driving the market growth.

The increasing aquaculture production worldwide is contributing towards the growth of the Global Herring Market. For instance – as per the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations – in 2018, global aquaculture production was estimated at 26 million tonnes, and this amount is projected to grow by more than 32 percent to reach 109 million tonnes by 2030. Also, rising penetration of e-grocery channels and increasing number of health-conscious individuals would create lucrative growth opportunities for the market over the projected period. However, high cost associated with herring food products hinders the market growth throughout the forecast period of 2022-2029.
