OPP-91
Organization of Fishery Producers of Palamós
The Organization of Fishery Producers of Palamós (OPP-91) is an association with its own legal personality and non-profit recognized by the Generalitat de Catalunya.
The OPP-91 was born from the will of the shipowners and fishermen of the port of Palamós with the aim of representing and defending the interests and rights of the associated people.
Every year we plan our actions based on the objectives set, such as: promoting the improvement of the commercialization of fishing, promoting the extraction of living marine resources in a responsible, balanced, competitive and sustainable way, as well as improving the conditions of work and life of all those who work at sea.

PROJECTS
Despite the recent creation of the Palamós Fish Producers Organisation (OPP in its Spanish acronym), we are already working on various associated projects, such as the creation of a fish handling facility and the design of a web-app to digitalise all the information we have.
Fish handling facility
The new OPP will create a fish handling facility in order to produce products for sale. This facility will be built in the port grounds, on a plot of land provided by Ports of Catalonia to the Palamós Fishermen’s Guild. The OPP will manage these facilities by means of a cession of use agreement.
Digitalisation of fishing
The OPP is requesting quotes from various IT technology companies for systems to be implemented across the associated fleet. The OPP is actively participating in the design of the applications. We consider this an indispensable tool for the creation of a database and its subsequent application.
