According to Technavio analysts, one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the global tilapia market is the growing demand for processed seafood:
Global tilapia market: Growing demand for processed seafood
Processed seafood such as canned and frozen tilapia, is gaining popularity among consumers because of their busy lifestyles and growing demand for ready-to-cook yet healthy products. Consumers are more inclined toward eating protein-rich food, especially seafood products like tilapia. Seafood is rich in essential nutrients, such as proteins, vitamins, and minerals, and is considered as a staple diet in many geographies and cultures. Processed seafoods like frozen whole tilapia and tilapia fillets are healthy and provide convenience to the consumer as they are easy to cook. Consumers prefer the wide variety of tilapia products in ready-to-cook packaging as it helps them save time and effort, without compromising on health and nutrition.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio for research on food, “Apart from the growing demand for processed food, new product launches is another factor that is boosting the growth of the market. New and innovative products, in line with growing consumer demand, characterize the global market. Players launch new products to meet the changing consumer demands and to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in April 2018, HAINAN XIANGTAI FISHERY, a leading tilapia producer in Hainan Province, China, launched an organic pre-cooked range of tilapia products. Similarly, in March 2017, High Liner Foods launched 10 new value-added products through its Sea Cuisine line, like tilapia, salmon, cod, and scallops, all with better flavors.”
