Ireland’s Ocean Economy, 2024

Ireland’s Ocean Economy Report, 2024, provides an update on Ireland’s ocean economy across three main economic indicators: turnover, gross value added (GVA) and employment. It provides an analysis of trends over a five-year period (2019-2023) and a commentary on rates of change over a ten-year timeframe (2013 to 2023). The report is accompanied by an online dashboard, where data trends can be accessed. The 2024 Ocean Economy Report is the eight in the ocean economy series. Ireland’s ocean economy statistics are based on nominal values.
