Abstract

This study analyses how the Spanish fish canning sector is principally located in Galicia, specifically in Vigo Estuary. Its origin is investigated and the main features of the canning sector are studied. The conclusion is that during the first decade of the 20th century there was a consolidation of a productive structure composed of small companies specialised in fish canning and concentrated in Vigo estuary. This concentration and specialisation was maintained throughout the rest of the century and continues with force in the 21st.
