According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Sandfish Market Report by Application (Food Service, Food Processing, Medical Applications, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the global sandfish market size reached 1,181 Tons in 2024. Sandfish is a type of skink lizard that is native to arid and is well-adapted to sandy environments. It is known for its unique ability to swim through sand and has specialized scales and a streamlined body that allows them to move efficiently through loose sand. It uses a combination of body undulation and muscular movement to navigate the sand. It is well-camouflaged with its surroundings, often having a color that matches the sand they live in, which helps them blend in and evade predators. It primarily feeds on insects and small invertebrates that they find in the sandy substrate.
Global Sandfish Market Trends:
The increasing number of commercial spaces, such as cafes, restaurants, quick service restaurants (QSRs), and luxury hotels, is catalyzing the demand for sandfish in sushi, sashimi, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, steaks, burgers, wraps, and salad. This, along with the thriving food and beverage (F&B) sector, represents one of the significant factors supporting the market growth around the world. Moreover, the rising inclination of consumers towards lean meat and protein rich food like sandfish in their daily diets is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, the growing consumption of seafood like sandfish due to the increasing awareness among individuals about the health benefits of sandfish, such as reducing the risk of numerous lifestyle-related disorders, is influencing the market positively. Apart from this, rising preferences for frozen and canned sandfish-based products and increasing consumption of ready to eat (RTE) food products on account of rapid urbanization, hectic schedules, and the expanding purchasing power of individuals are propelling the growth of the market. Furthermore, the growing farming of aquatic animals and significant improvement in seafood productivity is creating a positive outlook for the market. Looking forward, the market volume is projected to reach 4,548 Tons by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 16.07% during 2025-2033.
