About vegetables provisionally preserved; (e.g. by sulphur dioxide gas, in brine, in sulphur water or in other preservative solutions), but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption

HS code 0711 covers a wide range of provisionally preserved vegetables that are not suitable for immediate consumption. This industry plays a crucial role in the global food supply chain, providing a means to extend the shelf-life of perishable produce and facilitate international trade. The products covered under this code are an important input for various food processing industries, contributing to the availability of diverse and nutritious food options for consumers worldwide.

Production process

The main production techniques used in this industry involve the application of various preservative solutions to fresh vegetables. This can include immersion in brine, sulphur dioxide gas, or other chemical solutions that inhibit microbial growth and enzymatic processes. The vegetables are typically washed, sorted, and treated with the preservative before being packaged and stored in a controlled environment to maintain their quality until further processing or distribution.

Production inputs

The key inputs required for the production of provisionally preserved vegetables under HS code 0711 include fresh, high-quality vegetables, preservative solutions (such as brine, sulphur dioxide, or other chemicals), specialized equipment for washing, sorting, and applying the preservative treatments, and packaging materials to protect the treated vegetables during storage and transportation.

Production outputs
