fish processing
Fish processing involves cleaning, filleting, and preparing fish for sale and consumption. It starts with catching or harvesting fish, then transporting them to a processing facility. There, fish are cleaned to remove guts, scales, and bones. They may be cut into fillets or other products, then packaged—often frozen or canned—to preserve freshness. Additional steps can include smoking, drying, or adding preservatives. The goal is to ensure the fish is safe, high quality, and suitable for consumer use, while minimizing waste and maintaining nutritional value.
