Under the trend of consumption upgrading, the shift from "eating well" to "eating well" has injected new impetus into the food industry, driving the upstream food industry to accelerate optimization and upgrading. From food packaging to food types, food quality, etc., all aspects of snack food are changing quietly. In this process, seafood, as an important source of high-quality protein intake by the human body, has become a major product of high-end snack food in combination with the market development trend and the characteristics of seafood itself.

Looking at the market in recent years, Jinzai, Zhenzhiwei, Baicaowei, Jinmofang and many other brands have emerged in the industry to produce fish snacks, and launched multi-flavor instant-flavored dried fish and grilled fish fillets. Zhangzidao Reached a strategic cooperation with BESTORE to jointly promote the launch of individually packaged seafood snacks such as umami whole shellfish, spicy skirt, oyster mushroom and scallops, spicy Taichi shrimp, and barbecued clams. It is not difficult to find that the boundaries of seafood snacks are The ever-widening, more and more abundant species show a positive correlation with people's growing material needs. Industry insiders also pointed out that seafood snack food brings together the two current hot spots of marine food and leisure snacks, and generally has broad development prospects.

Therefore, in the process of continuous development and evolution of seafood snack food, the upgrading of production technology and technology plays a crucial role.

On the one hand, in terms of production technology, the author noticed that manufacturers are committed to finding high-quality sea areas and consolidating high-quality foundations with high-quality seafood raw materials. Then, the seafood is processed by a high-temperature cooking process of 121 degrees Celsius, so as to improve the flavor as much as possible while retaining the nutrients such as high-quality protein in the raw materials; or through deepening industry-university-research cooperation, modern production technology enables seafood snack food production , so that the delicious seafood that usually appears on the table can enter the consumer market in a more convenient way.

On the other hand, with the increasingly clear development trend of snacking and high-end seafood snack food, the growth of front-end consumer demand has also injected impetus into the rear-end transformation and expansion of production. For example, Zhangzidao has reached a relatively complete supply chain system with the upstream seafood raw material supply base and downstream leisure snack brands. The mid-end production is matched with cleaning equipment, baking equipment, vacuum lock fresh packaging equipment, etc. to improve production and quality. It can open the market smoothly and bring benefits to all parties. In addition, with the continuous expansion of the seafood snack food market and the operation process of production enterprises moving towards industrial scale, supporting the corresponding automatic production equipment and facilities is also an indispensable and important measure to improve quality, increase efficiency and expand the market, strengthen the machinery industry and food production. The communication and cooperation of enterprises has become an important direction of industrial development.

All in all, driven by consumption upgrades, seafood snack food is becoming a "sweet pastry".
