Shark Liver Oils Market to Reach $263.6 Million by 2035

Published: Feb 2026

Shark liver oils market was valued at $156.2 million in 2025 and is expected to reach $263.6 million by 2035, registering a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2026 to 2035. Recent developments in environmental regulation and ingredient innovation are influencing dynamics across the Global Shark Liver Oils market. In December 2025, international conservation agreements under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) were strengthened to enhance protection for endangered sharks, including deep-sea species traditionally harvested for high-value liver oil. This increased protection is expected to prompt greater sustainability scrutiny and supply chain adjustments among producers and suppliers within the shark liver oils ecosystem.

Concurrent industry innovation is seen in related ingredient sectors with the launch of GMP-quality plant-based squalene by Evonik, offering an alternative to shark-derived sources for pharmaceutical adjuvants and other health care applications. This product supports batch-to-batch consistency and reduced reliance on animal-derived materials, which could influence formulation strategies where squalene from shark liver oil has been previously used.

Consumer interest in shark liver oil derivatives persists in Europe, with squalene and shark liver oil supplements drawing attention for their antioxidant and immune-support properties, despite regulatory nuances in cosmetic applications. European regulations restrict shark-derived ingredients in some cosmetics while allowing shark liver oil use in dietary supplements under established food safety frameworks.

Together, these regulatory shifts, ingredient innovations, and evolving consumer trends are shaping demand patterns, sustainability practices, and product development across the pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements, and personal care segments of the Global Shark Liver Oils market.
