Abstract This paper gives an account on the incidence of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus during different stages of seafood processing from seafood processing plants in and around Cochin. E. coli and S. aureus were isolated from cuttlefish, squid, peeled and undeveined (PUD) shrimps samples of water, ice, utensils, processing tables and workers hand. Contamination with these organisms was found to be more in cephalopods and PUD shrimps than other samples. Some of the finished products got contaminated with these organisms during handling operations.
