In 2015 the total fish catch was 170,500 MT, which included the Baltic Sea and long-distance fisheries. Fish catch in 2015 was eight percent higher than in 2014 because the increased catch in the Baltic Sea offset a reduced catch in the long distance fisheries. The Polish fish processing industry is one of the largest in Europe. There are 262 processing plants eligible for export to the European Union and several hundred small, often family run companies which are permitted to sell products only to regional markets. Average annual fish consumption in Poland is almost 50 percent of average per capita fish consumption in the EU. Poland imports mainly raw fish which is used by the local industry for further processing.
