The shrimp will remain the most landed species in 2024. An increase has even been noted from 20 tons to 67 tons. Striking: the whelk knocks the tongue out of second place.
“Suddenly a French fisherman wanted to sell whelks here. So it runs like clockwork. Those whelks have found their place here,” Vandecasteele explains.
The larger supply does not translate into turnover figures. At 1.63 million euros, this is even 40,000 euros lower than in 2023.
