Prawn is a marine crustacean with an exoskeleton and ten legs, resembling a large shrimp. The consumption of prawns offers numerous health benefits as they are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and are known to improve cardiovascular circulation. On account of this, they are widely caught and farmed commercially and are easily available worldwide. This has also made prawns an important part of various cuisines and one of the most traded seafood species. According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Prawn Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024”, the global prawn market reached a volume of 5.2 Million Tons in 2018.
Seafood is considered one of the healthy sources of animal protein. As prawns are one of the most popular seafood types, shifting food habits towards the consumption of seafood has provided a thrust to the global prawn market. Moreover, prawns form an essential part of the staple diets of many regions, especially those near the seashore. Since the people living in these regions are largely dependent on prawns for their protein intake, this has resulted in a large consumer-base. Some of the other factors that have contributed to the growth of the global prawn market are the convenience attached with processed prawns available in ready-to-eat packaging, increasing urban population in the developing regions, and rapid growth of aquaculture across the globe. Further, the market is expected to reach a volume of 6.4 Million Tons by 2024, growing at a CAGR of 3.7% during 2019-2024.
