31171

Analysis

NAICS 31171 is the 2022 NAICS industry for seafood product preparation and packaging, part of 3117 (Seafood Product Preparation and Packaging).

It has only one more detailed code, 311710, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.

County Business Patterns counts 516 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 29,132 people at an average annual payroll of $60,776 per employee (34th percentile of national industries). 29% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 7% and employment fell 6%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
