Crayfish, also known as crawfish are freshwater crustaceans typically green, dark brown, or sandy color and live in freshwater streams, ponds, lakes, swamps, and marshes. They are widely consumed by people in Europe, China, Africa, Australia, Canada, and the U.S. Crayfish are also retained as pets in freshwater aquariums.
Crayfish are packed with proteins, vitamins, and minerals and are low in fat. Increase in awareness about the health benefits of seafood consumption especially among youngsters majorly drives the growth of the crayfish market.

However, increase in popularity of veganism and high price of crayfish exports are the factors expected to hamper the growth of the market.
