Investment in the Food Processing Industry
Investment in the Food Processing Industry

Few industries are as broad as the food processing industry, but Bangladesh does well on all fronts: confectionery as well as organic, frozen, and chilled foods.

Our market – one of Asia’s largest – brings almost every international food player here. This strength is only expected to improve as consumption trends and the good reputation of our products promise higher future sales. For investors, too, the time is ripe. A fragmented, pre-consolidation industry allows investors access to the market, its distribution channels, and its technological capabilities.

Bangladesh has a well-established food processing sector, which relies on domestic agricultural production and is oriented mainly to domestic needs. It includes sugar refining and milling, production of edible oils, processing and preserving of fruits and fruit juices as well as fish processing, especially shrimp and prawns. As a tropical country Bangladesh has a plentiful domestic supply of exotic fruits and sea species.

We have decided to take Processed Fruit Products as our industry item. Targeting the upper and upper middle class consumers of the major cities as more and more people live in the cities far away from where food is grown and produced food. In many families the adults are working away from home and therefore there is little time for purchasing fresh fruits and make any item out of that.

The Fruit Processing Business model:

The Theme:
We have selected processed food industry for our analysis. We are focusing on the processed fruit segment. Our idea is to establish Fruit Processing Centers at different places of the city. The place would be something like a refreshing corner for the customers just after a tiring journey, or place where they can think of visiting at a break from the days work. The centers will sell different seasonal fresh fruit juice along with young coconut water, milkshake, etc. they can also have different dried
