About crustaceans, frozen, dried, salted or in brine

cpc code 2125 covers the import and export of frozen, dried, salted, or brine-preserved crustaceans. This industry plays a vital role in the global seafood trade, providing a diverse range of crustacean products to consumers and businesses worldwide. As a key component of the broader food processing and distribution sector, the crustacean industry contributes significantly to international trade and economic activity.

Production process

The production of frozen, dried, salted, or brine-preserved crustaceans typically involves several key steps. Crustaceans are first harvested, either through commercial fishing or aquaculture operations. They are then processed, which may include cleaning, grading, and packaging the products. Depending on the desired final form, the crustaceans may be frozen, dried, salted, or packed in brine to preserve their quality and extend their shelf life.

Production inputs

The crustacean industry relies on a variety of inputs, including the raw crustacean materials, such as shrimp, lobster, crab, and other species. Additionally, the industry requires specialized processing equipment, such as freezers, drying units, and brine tanks. Packaging materials, such as bags, boxes, and containers, are also essential inputs for the final distribution of the products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the crustacean industry under cpc code 2125 are frozen, dried, salted, or brine-preserved crustacean products. These outputs are consumed by a wide range of industries, including 4611 Food and beverage stores, 4621 Wholesale trade of agricultural raw materials and live animals, and 4622 Wholesale trade of food, beverages and tobacco, as well as by individual consumers.
