Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and mentoring involving vacuum packaging technology, financial management training, and logo and packaging development. Descriptive analysis examined business conditions and mentoring outcomes.Results: Vacuum sealing extended product shelf life and supported frozen otak-otak bakar development for broader markets. Logo and packaging improvements strengthened product identity and appeal. Financial mentoring improved cash recording, separation of business and personal finances, and operational budgeting.Conclusions: Integrating product innovation, packaging technology, branding, and financial management offers an approach to strengthening MSME competitiveness and supporting business sustainability.Limitations: The study involved one MSME and a limited mentoring period, restricting assessment of long-term outcomes and transferability.Contributions: Drawing on contemporary applications of Dynamic Capabilities Theory, this study illustrates how technology adoption, product differentiation, and financial resource reconfiguration can support business adaptation. It provides a contextual development model integrating operational, marketing, and financial practices for fish-processing MSMEs, without establishing causal effects on competitiveness or long-term sustainability.]]>
