The Global Fish Oil Market is expected to value around US$ 3.62 Billion by 2030, according to the report. Fish oil is derived from fish tissues that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These omega-3 fatty acids find applications in various sectors, including aquaculture, animal nutrition, pet feed, supplements, functional foods, and pharmaceuticals. Fish oil is known for its positive impact on the cardiovascular and nervous systems. The increasing awareness among medical professionals and the general public about the importance of omega-3 fatty acids has led to a significant rise in fish oil consumption. As a result, companies are expanding their nutraceutical product lines to include concentrated EPA and DHA. The growing demand for EPA and DHA in human nutrition has had a notable influence on the global fish oil market.
Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil, are especially important for the elderly population as they help to reduce the risk of chronic diseases and address issues related to heart, cognitive function, eye health, and joint health. With the rising awareness of the health benefits associated with omega-3 fatty acids, their consumption is expected to increase among consumers.
The fish oil market is anticipated to experience substantial growth due to the growing proportion of the global population reaching the age of 65 and above. Japan, where over 25.9% of the population falls into this age group, already sees significant consumption of omega-3 fish oil to mitigate cardiovascular risks in older individuals. The Japanese government is actively promoting the inclusion of omega-3 fatty acids in diets to reduce the incidence of chronic diseases. This trend is likely to extend to other parts of the world in the coming years, driven by higher awareness of health and well-being among senior consumers.
China strong demand for dietary supplements, especially fish oil supplements, is fueled by the increasing awareness of the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. As a major producer of farmed fish, China growing aquaculture industry drives the demand for fish oil as a vital component in fish feed. However, domestic fish oil production has declined due to overfishing and environmental pollution, leading to a greater reliance on imported fish oil.
The global demand for farmed fish is increasing due to population growth, urbanization, and rising incomes, leading to higher production that relies on fish oil as a feed supplement. Fish oil benefits farmed fish by enhancing growth, health, and reproduction, resulting in increased production and profitability for farmers. It is readily available in large quantities and at an affordable cost, making it a cost-effective choice. Government support, including subsidies and research investments, further stimulates the aquaculture industry's growth and drives the demand for fish oil.
Hypermarkets and supermarkets are poised for growth in the global fish oil market due to rising awareness of omega-3 benefits, convenience, broad customer reach, diverse product selection, competitive pricing, and convenient locations.
