Abstract

Activities at fishing port greatly affect the process of distributing catches, especially the distribution of yellowfin tuna at TPI Ulee Cot. Distribution activities have not been optimal and have hampered the distribution flow. This is due to the slow process of handling fish and the incomplete facilities. The length of the distribution process will determine the quality of the product to be marketed. This study aims to describe the distribution activities of the catch landed at TPI, the condition of fishing facilities and relation to the distribution of yellowfin tuna. The data taken consisted of the handling of the catch, pattern, transportation, price, the fishing unit and TPI facilities distribution from interviews and questionnaires. Data analysis is carried out into data selection, data appearance, and drawing conclusions. Distribution activities start from fish transportation and fish handling from boats to fish transported into trucks to be distributed to destination area. The distribution pattern at TPI Ulee Cot only consists of one distribution pattern starting from the level of fishermen-exporting companies. The lack of cold storage facilities causes the quality of the catch to decrease because the fish are not immediately removed from the hold ship until the truck came. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
