The report provides comprehensive and valuable insights into the supply and demand dynamics of the Thailand’s caviar market. Below are the variables considered and analyzed in the report:
• Supply-demand trends, market growth, and trade
• Market structure, conduct, and performance analysis
• Historical and forecasted market size (volume & value)
• Trade analysis (export & import), including key partners, quantities, values, and price trends
• Supply chain mapping, pricing, and regulatory framework

E-commerce for premium foods is rising by **% year-on-year, government aquaculture grants and HACCP facilities support supply, and Thailand’s logistics hub status enables regional redistribution of **% of imported caviar.
Market Restraints & Challenges
Penetration is capped by ultra-premium pricing at THB 4,500–12,000 per 50g, long 5–7 year sturgeon maturation cycles, and tight CITES/biosecurity rules for species imports. Limited consumer education beyond fine dining, exposure to geopolitical and FX shocks on imports from Russia/Iran/Europe, and cold-chain costs that keep Thai retail 15–25% above origin prices add volatility.
Market Segmentation
Species demand is led by Siberian (share %) and Ossetra (%), with niche uptake of Sevruga/Kaluga (**%); Beluga is most desired but restricted. HoReCa accounts for **% of 2024 volume, premium retail and online for **%, and farm/DTC channels about **%. Price tiers bifurcate into ultra-premium (US$ **+/50g; % share) from France/Iran/Russia and mid-tier (% share) from China and emerging Thai farms.
Competitive Landscape
Imports are dominated by Calvisius, Prunier, Royal Belgian, and Chinese hybrids, anchored in five-star hotel contracts; domestic leaders Chiang Mai Caviar and Thai Sturgeon Co. hold **% of local output and supply Michelin venues while scaling online. Distributors such as Thammachart Seafood, Global Premium Foods, and Gourmet Market control cold-chain and licensing, creating high entry barriers and favoring brands with traceability and chef partnerships.
Outlook
By 2030, Thailand is projected to handle over ** tonnes annually, with domestic production rising from ** kg in 2024 toward ** tonnes and exports exceeding ** kg, chiefly to Singapore, Malaysia, and the UAE. Imports in 2024 totaled ** tonnes worth US$ ** million, with source shares from France (%), China (%), Italy (%), and Iran (%); import prices climbed from US$ 900/kg in 2018 to US$ **/kg in 2024, with seasonal spikes of 8–12%.
