Issue 2/2019 February 2019 Index for prices
Latest trends February is traditionally a quiet month for fish consumption in Europe. Landings in European waters are generally poor at present due to the winter weather. Prices are trending upwards, despite lacklustre demand. Further price hikes are likely as Easter approaches.
GROUNDFISH Groundfish quotas have been reduced for 2019, which will lead to price increases. In Poland, demand is currently limited but catches have been poor recently and prices have started to move up.
