Global Crayfish Market to Grow at a CAGR of 25.70% During 2026-2035, Driven by the Growing Demand for Sustainably Sourced Crayfish and Sea Foods

Crayfish, also called crawfish, are small crustaceans that majorly grow in freshwater and are popular across the globe. The increasing global consumption of seafoods and the growth of aquaculture are the major factors influencing the crayfish market growth. Total fisheries and aquaculture production have increased dramatically on a global scale over the past few years, due primarily to improvements in production technologies, favourable government policies supporting fish farming, and to fulfil food demands of the growing population.

Around 95% of the crayfish consumed in the United States of America are harvested from Louisiana. The Asia Pacific is anticipated to hold a significant share of the market owing to rising production and consumption of crayfish in China. China is known to produce crayfish at a mass scale. The rising demand for seafood and the growing culinary popularity of crayfish in China are aiding the market growth. Crayfish is widely incorporated in soups and other dishes in Chinese homes and restaurants.

The wide availability of crayfish and crayfish-based products in precooked or frozen categories at supermarket chains such as Walmart Inc (NYSE: WMT) and Kroger Co (NYSE: KR), also supports the market growth.
