About processing and preserving of fish, crustaceans and molluscs
isic code 102 covers the processing and preserving of fish, crustaceans, and molluscs. This industry plays a vital role in the global food supply chain, providing a crucial source of protein and other essential nutrients. As a key component of the broader 03 Fishing and aquaculture industry, the processing and preserving of aquatic species is a significant economic activity, contributing to employment, exports, and food security in many regions around the world.
Production process
The main production techniques used in this industry involve a range of processing methods, such as freezing, canning, drying, and smoking. These techniques are employed to extend the shelf life of the raw materials and ensure the safety and quality of the final products. The specific processes may vary depending on the type of aquatic species being processed, as well as the desired end-product characteristics.
Production inputs
The key inputs required for this industry include the raw materials, namely the fish, crustaceans, and molluscs harvested from the 03 Fishing and aquaculture sector. Additionally, the industry relies on various packaging materials, such as cans, jars, and plastic containers, as well as specialized equipment for processing, preserving, and packaging the final products. Energy sources, such as electricity and fuel, are also essential inputs for the various stages of production.
Production outputs
The main outputs of this industry are the processed and preserved fish, crustaceans, and molluscs, which are then distributed and sold to a wide range of consumers, including households, food service establishments, and other 10 Manufacture of food products industries. The processed aquatic products may be further consumed or used as inputs for the production of other food items, such as 102 Processing and preserving of fish, crustaceans and molluscs, 103 Manufacture of vegetable and animal oils and fats, and 104 Manufacture of dairy products.
