The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the object categorization of English terms of the food industry. The relevance of the article is determined by the need to study object categorization in the formation, structuring and functioning of the English terminology of the food industry. The material of the study was the English-language terms of the food industry, which were obtained by the method of continuous sampling from specialized dictionaries. The analysis was carried out using definitional, semantic, categorical and conceptual research methods. The object category is widely represented by terms that designate concepts used in the terminology of the food industry and serve for their classification. It was determined that the terms representing the object category are divided into six groups: 1) terms for the designation of raw materials; 2) terms for labeling processing products; 3) terms for marking equipment and technology; 4) terms for marking packaging and labeling; 5) terms for designation of trademarks and brands; 6) terms for marking quality control and product safety. Groups of nominations corresponding to the object category are represented by the author. The study has shown that the various subcategories of the object are indeed represented in the specialized terminology of the food industry. The primary objective of the research is to shed light on the role of the object category and its linguistic representation in the English food industry terminology. The research also identifies productive linguistic elements, including special vocabulary, specialized morphemes, and syntactic constructions, that contribute to the formation of terms related to the object category. It is justified that the object category is widely used in the terminology of the food industry, as it is one of the basic categories that play an important role in the birth and formation of the naming of concepts in this industry.
