Abstract
The measure 2.3 of the European Fisheries Fund, in Sicily, claimed investments of fish companies in production capacity expansion and modernization of fish processing. Have these investments been effective in supporting the competitiveness of these companies and have they influenced the economic sustainability of the regional seafood chain? Proposed analysis contributes to this assessment through an exploratory survey and a review of the changes in their business performance.
