The objective of the present study was to map the productive chain of tilapia of the state of Veracruz, carried out during the months of July to September 2016. For this purpose, the study was carried out in two stages. In the first, the different actors of the production of tilapia in the links (raw materials, type of producers, process and commercialization) of the production chain were classified. In the second, the following aspects were determined: type of species, category of producers, level of production by category, form of commercialization, presentation of the product, added value, markets for purchase and sale and problems for the sale of the final product. The results of the first stage of the study determined that the main inputs are imported and the market of greater importance is local. Likewise, the producers were classified according to their production (self-consumption, semi-commercial and commercial) and the market they are targeting (selfconsumption, local and regional). In the second stage of the investigation it was found that the most representative species is tilapia and its sale is on foot of the farm with an intrinsic value added being the markets of sale more representative those of the big cities. It is concluded that by means of the schematization of the productive chain of tilapia of the state of Veracruz, the main inputs are imported, which must be replaced by national supply and technologies.
