China's fishery industry is at a critical stage of transformation and development. Traditional aquaculture models are gradually shifting toward greener, smarter, and more digital approaches, with technologies like recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and deep-sea farming seeing increasing adoption. As consumption upgrades, demand for high-quality, high-value-added aquatic products has grown significantly, with processed items like ready-to-eat meals emerging as a new growth driver. However, the industry also faces challenges such as rising environmental pressures and increasing farming costs, making green and sustainable development a shared priority. Supply chain integration is accelerating, with leading companies enhancing competitiveness through technological upgrades and brand building. Amid a complex and volatile global trade environment, exporters are actively exploring emerging markets. Overall, the sector is transitioning from scale expansion to quality-driven growth, with technological innovation and industrial integration set to shape its future direction.
According to the latest “2025-2026 China's Fishery Industry Status and Consumption Trend Insight Report” released by iiMedia Research, a third-party global new-economy industry data mining and analysis firm, consumer preferences for aquatic products exhibit distinct characteristics: over 70% favor minimally processed or fresh/frozen products, reflecting a market demand for freshness and original flavor—prompting companies to strengthen cold-chain logistics and standardize processing practices.

As Gen Z becomes the core consumer base, personalized and health-oriented aquatic snacks and prepared dishes will gain further traction. The industry should establish a fully digitalized supply chain—from farming to sales—to enhance traceability and operational efficiency, achieving high-quality development by meeting diverse consumer demands.

China’s fish-maw sector is now at the intersection of surging demand and industrial upgrading. On the mainland, deepening health awareness has moved fish maw from a niche tonic into the mainstream; consumption occasions have expanded from festival gifting and postpartum recovery to daily wellness and light-meal substitutes, with Gen-Z acceptance rising sharply. Hong Kong, leveraging its role as an international financial and trading hub and its long-standing tonic culture, occupies a unique position: propelling the market toward greater refinement and premiumization.Yet the industry remains constrained by legacy models. Products are still dominated by dried formats, carrying high entry barriers, while consumer knowledge is fragmented and quality uneven. Supply chains operate through both traditional channels and nascent e-commerce; the overall market is evolving from a fragmented, rudimentary state toward standardization and segmentation.
According to the latest White paper on the consumption trends of the fish maw industry in the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong region in 2025, released by iiMedia Research, 53.9% of buyers prioritize “product efficacy/nutritional value.”Top perceived benefits are beauty and skin nourishment (59.9%), immunity enhancement (47.8%), and energy replenishment/recovery (42.9%). Among women, the leading consumption scenarios are daily wellness (61.9%), primarily post-menstrual recuperation), pre-pregnancy preparation (27.9%), and pregnancy support (27.2%). Geographically, the mainland is shifting from postpartum recovery to broader daily wellness, whereas Hong Kong has fully woven fish maw into local cuisine and customs, yielding mature and diverse usage occasions.
Analysts at iiMedia believe that as health needs become more granular and scenario-specific, the sector is poised for deep restructuring of product formats and the consumer ecosystem. Ready-to-eat and portable offerings will rapidly penetrate everyday life, breaking the limitations of traditional tonics. Going forward, the mainland and Hong Kong markets are expected to strengthen interaction and complement each other, jointly exploring new demand and opportunities. The industry will transition from fragmented competition to branded, intensive development, and fish maw will evolve from a regional tonic into a national health food—an iconic category bridging traditional wellness wisdom and modern healthy living.
