Items 





It can be fairly stated that the distribution of canned 

 fishery products is meeting the demands of consumers in all parts of 

 the country. Only 3.2$ of all households indicated that any item 

 which they wished to purchase was unavailable at their usual shopping 

 place. It may be noted that this percentage was somewhat higher (5.8$) 

 in the West. But most of the Western respondents wanted products so 

 unusual that no one of them occured with sufficient frequency to warrant 

 separate listing in the tables. Respondents wanting unavailable items 

 were highly concentrated in metropolitan areas and in the highest in- 

 come groups.
