The rising prevalence of heart disease and diabetes is expected to propel the growth of the canned seafood market going forward.

For instance, in September 2024, according to the British Heart Foundation, a UK-based cardiovascular research charity, approximately 7.6 million people in the UK are affected by heart and circulatory diseases, causing around 27% of all deaths in the country, equating to roughly one death every three minutes.
