Aquaculture Gains Major Fish Supply Market Share, Business and Industry Trends Analysis

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) found that fish farming (aquaculture) exceeded the production of beef for the first time in 2011.  As of late 2015, global consumption of farmed fish surpassed consumption of fish caught in the wild.  By 2030, fish consumption is expected to increase to 201 million metric tons.
Mergers and acquisitions of fish growers and feed suppliers is on the rise.  Grain trader and meat supplier Cargill, Inc. made headlines when it acquired EWOS Holding AS, a Norwegian salmon-feed business, for $1.5 billion.  Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp. bought Cermaq ASA, a salmon farming company, for $1.4 billion while SHV Holdings NV spent $4 billion to acquire Dutch salmon-feed supplier Nutreco NV.
