Abstract :In this study, both the business structure and the socio-economic structures of the employees in 13 active aquaculture processing plants operating in Istanbul were examined and it was aimed to reveal the data in social and economic terms. In the study, a 24-question questionnaire for employees and a 15-question questionnaire to evaluate the business structure were presented. It was seen that 52% of the employees were men and 48% were women and 34.29% were in the 31-40 age range. It was found that 73.14% of the respondents were married and most of them lived in apartments under 120m2. In the multiple compliance analyzes, it was determined that there was a relationship between education level and the number of social media uses, and between monthly income and job satisfaction. It was determined that 31% of the 13 enterprises in the study had an export permit and that the HACCP system was applied in all of them. It was seen that only 38% of the enterprises received state support. The problems and solution proposals of the sector are also put forward in titles. Turkey\`s aquaculture sector and the processing plants connected to this sector are very important in economic terms. With the two different survey applications used, both a different perspective on employee data and important data on general problems within the scope of the facility were revealed. When the importance of Istanbul and the aquaculture processing sector is considered, the originality of the study is revealed.
