Salmon is a species of oily, ray-finned fish belonging to the family of Salmonidae. It is rich in astaxanthin, vitamins, potassium, iodine, zinc, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other essential nutrients. It aids in reducing the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and minimizing the risk of developing heart diseases, cancer, dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other cognitive disorders. It also improves the functions of cells, maintains blood sugar levels, reduces inflammation, and boosts the immune system. As a result, it is widely utilized in the preparation of various food items worldwide.

Salmon Market Trends:
Salmon is used in the preparation of commercial food dishes, such as pizza, pasta, burger, salad, and mac and cheese, which are widely served across restaurants and other food outlets. This, in confluence with the significant growth in the food and beverage (F&B) industry, represents one of the major factors bolstering the market growth. In addition, the growing consumption of seafood on account of the increasing awareness among individuals about its health benefits is influencing the market positively. This can also be attributed to a considerable shift in consumer preferences from high-calorie, carb-based food items to protein-based diets. Moreover, the rising consumption of ready-to-eat (RTE) food products due to busy lifestyles, rapid urbanization, and expanding purchasing power of individuals are catalyzing the demand for frozen and canned salmon-based products. Apart from this, the introduction of value-added products, such as smoked salmon, salmon jerky, salmon oil, salmon lox, and salmon spreads, is creating a positive outlook for the market. Furthermore, the rising farming of aquatic animals and significant improvement in seafood productivity are anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors.
