Seafood Product Preparation and Packaging

Establishments in the NAICS 3117 industry primarily engage in the preparation and packaging of seafood products. This includes activities such as processing fresh, frozen, or canned seafood, as well as producing seafood-based products like fish fillets, shellfish, and surimi. The industry is distinguished by its focus on transforming raw seafood into consumable products, setting it apart from industries involved in fishing or aquaculture, which focus on harvesting seafood.
