As a result, it offers numerous health benefits in maintaining good heart health, boosting immunity, relieving respiratory problems, strengthening bones and teeth, improving vision, etc. The global market for carp is primarily driven by the expanding aquaculture sector and the growing number of fish trade activities.

The rising consumer health concerns towards the high prevalence of cardiovascular ailments, premature skin aging, deteriorating bone health, etc., are augmenting the demand for carp. Furthermore, the changing consumer preferences from high-calorie food items towards a protein-rich diet are also catalyzing the product demand. Additionally, the growing awareness towards several health benefits of carp in balancing hormone levels and reducing the risk of chronic diseases is further propelling the market growth. Apart from this, the hectic consumer work schedules and sedentary lifestyles have led to the increasing adoption of canned, chilled, and frozen carp.
