This study evaluated the coastal fisheries value chain (CFVC) of Ogun Waterside Local Government Area (LGA), Nigeria. 176 fisherfolks were selected using purposive and simple random sampling techniques for interview schedule administration. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tools. Fishermen, fish processors and fish-marketers were the major actors of the CFVC and their average ages were 34.79+0.57, 39.05+0.58 and 36.73+0.65 years; 91.7%, 57.8% and 70.4% of them were married, having an average household size of 9, 10 and 6 persons respectively. Actors in the CFVC were mainly uneducated (43.1%, 31.2% and 66.0% respectively). Chi-Square analysis revealed a significant association (P 0.05) and total revenue; although it was significant for the fish processors ( 2 =0.000, P < 0.05) and fish-marketers ( 2 =0.000, P < 0.05) at 95% fractile level. The study concluded that poor transportation network, high cost of fishing inputs, inadequate funding and poor storage facilities were major constraints to CFVC development and that the fish-marketers stage was the most profitable compared to the other stages in the CFVC.
