About fruit, nuts and other edible parts of plants; prepared or preserved in ways n.e.c., whether or not containing added sugar or other sweetening matter or spirit, not elsewhere specified or included

HS code 2008 covers a diverse range of processed fruit, nuts, and other edible plant-based products. This industry plays a crucial role in the global food supply chain, transforming raw agricultural commodities into shelf-stable, value-added items for consumers. The products within this code are widely used across various sectors, including retail, food service, and manufacturing, making it an important component of the broader economy.

Production process

The production techniques for HS code 2008 items typically involve a combination of processing methods, such as canning, jarring, drying, and freezing. These processes are designed to preserve the natural flavors and nutritional properties of the raw materials while extending their shelf life. Depending on the specific product, additional steps like peeling, slicing, or blending may be incorporated to prepare the ingredients for packaging and distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 2008 items include a variety of fresh fruits, nuts, and other edible plant parts. Producers may also utilize sweeteners, spices, and other ingredients to enhance the flavor and texture of the final products. Additionally, specialized equipment such as canning or drying machinery, as well as packaging materials, are essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The outputs of HS code 2008 include a wide range of preserved, prepared, or otherwise processed fruit, nuts, and other edible plant-based products. These items are often consumed directly by end-users, but they may also serve as inputs for other industries, such as 1904 Prepared foods obtained by the swelling or roasting of cereals or cereal products, 2103 Sauces and preparations; mixed condiments and mixed seasonings, and 2106 Food preparations not elsewhere specified or included.
