Market Growth Factors

The majority of the aquaculture market in Turkey is export-oriented, and seafood exports are expected to be worth US$2.5 billion by 2027, compared to US$2.02 billion in 2024. Production of salmon for export has developed from 6000 tons to 100,000 tons worth $498 Million in 2024. By the end of 2024 it is expected to be $650 Million. Sales may reach $1 Billion after five years of meeting EU regulations, receiving subsidies, export licensing and trading. The fish is mainly exported to EU member states, with Italy, Spain, and Greece being the leading markets. Other markets include Europe and the Middle East. There are initiatives to reduce waste and become zero-waste.

Another contributing factor has been the strong growth of the domestic aquafeed market in Turkey, and investments have been concentrated on high protein and species-specific aquafeeds for trout, sea bass, sea bream and other cultured species. Egyptian feed manufacturers have invested in modernization of production and R&D sometimes in joint ventures with European technology providers. Feed produced in Turkey is cheaper and produced with better technological control and delivery than can be achieved in Egypt. Government incentives through tax exemptions, infrastructure development, and a flourishing aquafeed supply chain have encouraged the aquaculture industry's rapid expansion.

The development of modern fish farming facilities and fish farming technology will also lead to further growth in the market. The largest project to date by the Turkish AKVA Group is the delivery of sixteen Polarcirkel 220 meter (720 ft) pens, and three Akvasmart CCS feeding systems to Gümüşdoğa, operator of the largest bass and bream farm in Turkey, located at Güllük Bay. The plant and three others to be built in Muğla by 2026 will improve efficiency and sustainability of aquaculture supported by new technologies and local production capacity, thus increasing Turkey's competitiveness.
