The global oyster and clam market size is expected to reach USD 143.28 billion by 2030, expanding at 3.5% CAGR from 2022 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing popularity for premium seafood coupled with rising consumer interest towards health benefits provided by seafood are the major factors driving the demand for the oysters & clam market.
The rise in the number of consumers following a balanced diet is favoring the demand for oysters and clams. As consumers become more health-conscious and environmentally aware, they are increasingly seeking out sustainable and healthy food options. Clams & oysters are seen as a healthy and sustainable protein source and are becoming more popular as consumers seek out healthier and more environmentally friendly food options.
In addition, the globalization of trade has also led to increased competition in the oyster and clam market, as companies globally compete to sell their products worldwide. This has led to improvements in the quality and variety of seafood products available to consumers, as companies seek to differentiate themselves from their competitors. Overall, the globalization of trade has been a key factor in driving the growth of the market in recent years.
In addition, growing awareness among consumers about the importance of sustainable fishing practices and the impact of overfishing on the environment. As a result, many consumers are seeking out seafood products that are sourced using sustainable practices, such as those certified by organizations like the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC). This has driven demand for sustainably sourced oysters and clams. For example, in 2020, as per a survey by National Retail Federation and IBM, close to 57% of Americans are willing to change their buying habits to reduce the impact on the environment.
Advances in seafood processing and packaging technologies have led to improvements in the quality and safety of seafood products, making them more attractive to consumers. For example, new packaging materials and technologies can help to extend the shelf life of seafood products and reduce the risk of contamination.
