On 3 December 2019, the Policy Department for Structural and Cohesion Policies presented a study on "Seafood industry integration in all EU Member States with a coastline" in the Committee on Fisheries.

This study researched the drivers and mechanisms of both structural and non-structural horizontal and vertical integration in the seafood industry in all Member States with a coastline. The objective of the study was to identify trends among the Member States.
The observed trends generally fall into three broad, inter-linked categories: regulatory environment, natural resources and firm performance.
