Ecoonomical convenience foods from locally sourceable fish

One of the most important challenges for the food processing industry is a reshaped eating behavior caused by a daily life tempo, especially in big cities and in the Western world. Another associated tendency among customers is pursuing a modern understanding of a healthy diet and routinely choosing healthier options, as well as demanding value for money. The producers on the other hand traditionally have been focused on commercialization potential and profit. The project focused on the development of a technological process for an innovative fish-based convenience food with increased nutritional value that could be used in daily consumption. At the same time, the project succeeded to develop a cost-optimizing production process, including solutions for extended shelf life.
