Smoked salmon is a preparation of salmon fish or typically its fillets that have been cured and hot or cold smoked. The smoking process increases the flavour and texture of the fish. The salmon has various nutritional advantages as it is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, proteins, vitamins, selenium and potassium which can lower the high blood pressure and heart disease risks. Further, the millennials demand for tasty meals that offer nutritional benefits due to their growing health consciousness.
The growing trend of consuming organic food products as they are free-from harmful chemicals as well as are sustainable has led the manufacturers to introduce organic smoked salmon. For instance, In September 2019, JCS Fish Ltd., has launched BigFish Signature, a premium range of organic smoked salmon which are hand cured with natural salt.
The increasing demand for processed foods that are convenient as well as healthy due to the busy lifestyle of the consumers has driven the smoked salmon market. Salmon is a rich source of nutrients and is widely consumed in smoked form either directly or is incorporated in some culinary preparation. Along with this, the growing demand for seafood due to its rich taste and nutritional properties has contributed in the market growth.
The smoked salmon fish is expensive as its supply is less as compared to its demand. Along with this, the salmon undergoes various processes such as curing, brining and smoking that leads to increase in its overall end product price. Thus, this is the major factor impeding its growth.
