Global Growth Rate of the Tilapia Industry
Between 2010 and 2022, global tilapia production grew at a rate of over 5% annually. Forecasts for 2023–2025 estimate a growth rate of 4–6%. China continues to dominate as the global capital of tilapia farming. However, Indonesia is rapidly gaining momentum and is expected to become China's strongest competitor in the global tilapia market. Egypt follows, maintaining stable production levels in recent years and ranking among the top three tilapia-producing countries worldwide.
Currently, the United States is the largest consumer of tilapia globally. American consumers often prefer low-cost frozen tilapia fillets. China, Indonesia, and Brazil are the primary suppliers of tilapia to the U.S. market.

The European Union is the second-largest consumer bloc for tilapia. To export tilapia to the EU, suppliers must comply with strict certifications such as ASC and Global GAP. Indonesia and Vietnam are the two main suppliers of tilapia to the EU. These high product standards reflect the complexity of the EU market and indirectly indicate the high quality of products from its suppliers.
Additionally, the Middle East, South Korea, and Japan are important destinations for tilapia exports, offering a more diverse product range beyond just frozen fillets.
