CPC v2.1 Code: 21259

About other crustaceans, frozen, dried, salted or in brine

cpc code 21259 covers a diverse range of crustacean products, including shrimp, prawns, lobsters, crabs, and other seafood items that are frozen, dried, salted, or preserved in brine. This industry plays a vital role in the global food supply chain, providing a valuable source of protein and nutrients. As consumer demand for seafood continues to grow, the trade and processing of these crustacean products have become increasingly important to the broader economy.

Production process

The production of items under cpc code 21259 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 freezing or drying the products. Salting and brining are also common preservation methods used to extend the shelf life of these seafood items.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cpc code 21259 items include the raw crustacean materials, such as shrimp, lobsters, and crabs. Specialized equipment, such as freezers, drying units, and brine tanks, are also necessary for the processing and preservation of these products. Additionally, labor, energy, and transportation resources are critical inputs to support the various stages of production and distribution.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of cpc code 21259 are frozen, dried, salted, or brined crustacean products that are ready for consumption or further processing. These items may be sold directly to consumers or used as inputs for other industries, such as 21251 Other fish, frozen, 21252 Fish, dried, salted or in brine; smoked fish, and 21253 Prepared or preserved fish; caviar and caviar substitutes prepared from fish eggs.
