Green Mussel Processing Supports Coastal Livelihoods in North Jakarta

Green Mussel Processing Supports Coastal Livelihoods in North Jakarta

Workers in Cilincing, North Jakarta, boil green mussels after they are harvested and before they are sold.

Boiling helps make the shells easier to open and prepares the mussels for market.

The work provides income for local residents who depend on processing and selling seafood.

Collecting, boiling, packing and distributing the mussels involve workers, fishers and traders.

This chain links coastal producers with sellers and consumers, and contributes to local trade.

The business also faces challenges involving the supply of mussels, selling prices and conditions in the surrounding waters.
