How to open your own production
In this article:
Concrete is one of the most popular building materials used in repair and construction work. This material is used by everyone - from small private farms to large industrial enterprises. The demand for concrete is constant, and reaches its peak value during the period favorable for construction - from May to October. Therefore, the opening of a mini-factory for the production of this material is profitable business, which will generate regular income.
On registration of a concrete production enterprise
1. To open a factory, you must register entity(OOO). This legal form should be chosen because it is safer and provides more opportunities for running this business.
In case of failure, the founders of the LLC risk only the authorized capital.
Before the beginning production activities You must also choose one of the taxation systems: OSNO (general taxation system) or simplified taxation system (simplified taxation system).
If the income from the commissioning of a concrete production plant will not exceed 60 million rubles, then it is preferable to choose the simplified tax system, since this system exempts from paying income tax, VAT, and property tax.
Otherwise, you should select BASIC. With this taxation system, it is necessary to keep a full account. accounting and paying all general taxes.
2. In the process of preparing organizational and legal documents, you will need to indicate the following OKVED code: 26.63 – “Production of ready-mixed concrete”.
3. For organization technological process You need to familiarize yourself with the rules:
- GOST 26633-91 – “Heavy and fine-grained concrete. THAT";
- GOST 27006-86 – “Concrete. Rules for selecting the composition";
- GOST 10060.0-95 – “Methods for determining frost resistance”;
- GOST 10181-2000 – “Concrete mixtures – test methods”;
- GOST 18105 – 86 – “Concrete – rules for strength control”.
Concrete production technology
Used in construction in accordance with normative document - GOST 25192 concrete is classified according to brands, classes and its characteristics. In this business plan, we will consider only the important and useful information necessary for the production of concrete mix.
Raw materials
To prepare a classic solution, the following raw materials are required:
- Cement is a binder that is the basis of a concrete mixture. It is a gray powder that crystallizes and hardens when moistened.
- Construction sand. According to GOST 8736-93 sand is bulk material, the grain size of which should not exceed 0.5 mm.
- Crushed stone is a mineral with grains larger than 5 mm, produced by crushing gravel, rocks or slag.
- Ballast is a mixture of gravel and sand. A mixture with a ratio of 1:3 (one part river sand to three fine gravel chips) is best suited for concrete production. This composition is sometimes referred to as the "General Mixture".
- Water. For the production of concrete mixture, only clean water without foreign inclusions is used. There are no clearly established standards for water consumption, since its costs are determined by the moisture content of other raw materials.
Concrete production includes the following stages:
1. Preparation of raw materials
Typically, operations for the preparation of raw materials - removal of contaminants, crushing of aggregates - are carried out at enterprises that supply them for sale. At a concrete production plant, only special activities are carried out (preparing chemical additives, grinding cement, heating aggregates) when the need arises. Since performing these operations entails additional payment costs utilities and the purchase of special equipment. These operations include: the production of solutions of chemical additives, grinding cement, heating aggregates in the cold season.
Let's take a closer look at each of the events:
- preparation of chemical additives - the process of dissolving in clean water additives followed by setting a certain concentration of the solution. To perform this procedure, containers with a pipeline system are used, which are designed to mix solutions of chemical additives using compressed air.
- Cement grinding can be done using wet or dry methods. Thanks to this operation, it is possible to speed up the hardening process of the final material - concrete. However, activation (grinding) of cement is not always carried out, since this requires additional energy costs and the presence of special equipment.
- Heating of aggregates is carried out in special bunkers or covered warehouses.
The heating stage of aggregates can be carried out using one of two methods:
- Passing hot air, steam or gas through the filler. This method is more economical, but to implement it it is necessary to take measures aimed at reducing steam losses;
- Contact heating method using combs and steam pipes, which are placed in bunkers.
2. Dosing the mixture
Dosing– measuring the consumption of raw materials for mixing the concrete mixture.
Typically, factories use weighing dispensers, thanks to which it is possible to measure the consumption of cement and water with a minimum error. If concrete production is carried out in the field, then volumetric dispensers are used for measuring. During this operation, the moisture content of the constituent components, especially sand, must be taken into account.
3. Stirring
The cement and aggregates are thoroughly mixed until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Depending on the characteristics and type of concrete mixture, use various methods stirring. If in concrete mixture If coarse-grained mobile mixtures with aggregate made of hard and dense rocks are included, it is advisable to use gravity concrete mixing plants.
In such equipment, mixing is carried out as a result of repeated dropping and lifting of materials from a given height during rotation of the mixing drum.
Mixing of lightweight concrete and fine-grained mixtures is carried out in forced-action concrete mixing equipment. In this equipment, a homogeneous mass is obtained by mixing materials using blades and other devices. Sometimes enterprises perform vibration mixing. This method ensures the activation of cement, which has a positive effect on the strength of concrete.
The quality of this process directly depends on the duration. Insufficient duration of this operation can lead to deterioration of the properties of the concrete mixture.
Equipment for concrete mini-plant
Typically, automated lines are used in stationary and mobile concrete mini-plants. Such lines include the following equipment:
- Cement silo. 40 m 3, 60 tons. Price – 477,900 rubles.

Business plan for a concrete production plant
A building material production plant must include the following divisions:
- Cement warehouse;
- Aggregate warehouse;
- Boiler room;
- Administrative and utility plant;
- Support service block.
Premises for these units will be built. It is planned that the company will produce the following products:
- Heavy concrete (M 250) – annual production volume – 360,000 m 3;
- Heavy concrete (M 350) - annual production volume - 640,000 m 3.
Total – 1,000,000 m3.

Equipment costs – 1,997,740 rubles;
Other costs – 20,315,500 rubles;
Total: 303,099,240 rubles.
Costs of raw materials and materials
The need for raw materials and materials is established based on the consumption rates of these components per unit of production or annual production volume.
To produce an annual volume of concrete M 250, the following raw materials are required:
1. To produce the annual volume of concrete M-250:
- cement – 13,860,000 tons;
- crushed stone – 28800 m3;
- sand – 16500 m3.
2. To produce the annual volume of concrete M-350:
- cement – 26880000 tons;

- sand – 28,800 m3.
Let's calculate the costs of purchasing raw materials:
1. For the production of concrete M-250:
- for cement: 138,600 tons * 2,800 rubles = 388,080,000 rubles.
- for crushed stone: 28800 m 3 * 900 rubles = 25,920,000 rubles.
- for sand: 16,500 m3 * 500 rubles = 8,250,000 rubles.
2. For the production of concrete M-350:
- for cement: 26,880 tons * 3,000 rubles = 80,640,000 rubles.
- for crushed stone: 48,000 m 3 * 700 rubles = 33,600,000 rubles.
- for sand: 28800 m 3 * 600 rubles = 17,280,000 rubles.
Total: 553,770,000 rubles.
Payroll costs
To start a concrete production plant, the following personnel are required:
- administrative and managerial staff – 5 people;
- for the concrete mixing shop – 9 workers;

- salary of workers for the support services block – 2,400,000 rubles;
- salary for drivers – 960,000 rubles.
Total: 20,040,000 rubles.
Other costs
Indirect costs (per year) – 250,000 rubles per year.
Costs for maintenance and operation of equipment (per year) – 186,679,000 rubles;
Shop costs (per year) – 800,000,000 rubles.
General plant costs – 825,000,000 rubles.
Total costs (per year) – 2,385,836,500 rubles per year.
Revenue
Revenue for the year (sales of concrete):
- heavy concrete (M-250) – 360,000 m 3 * 3900 rubles = 1,404,000,000 rubles.
- heavy concrete (M-350) – 640,000 m 3 * 4,100 rubles = 2,624,000,000 rubles.
Total: 4,028,000,000 rubles.
Annual revenue excluding VAT – 3,302,960,000 rubles.
Calculation of technical and economic indicators:
Net profit – 917,123,500 rubles.
Production profitability is 38%.
Payback period - 303,099,240/917,123,500 =0.33 years or about 4 months.
conclusions
Having made calculations, we established that the payback period for the plant will be 4 months. This indicator shows that selling concrete is a profitable business and the building material is in demand on the market.
Dumpling production is a process similar to home cooking, but on a larger scale. The product goes through several stages:
- Selection of raw materials (meat, flour, spices, water).
- Recipe development - dumplings made from one type of meat or combined minced meat.
- Preparing dough that should not be thick, but also not break at the most crucial moment.
- The choice of sculpting method is manual or machine.
- The production process from minced meat to packaging and shipping to freezer. It can be conveyor or manual.
There's nothing complicated. There is only one point - making dumplings at home, where the housewife alone controls the process, or in an industrial-scale “kitchen”, where everything must be sterile, molded in accordance with the recipe and the requirements of government authorities. Dumpling production can be organized in the kitchen of your home or you can find a suitable room and equip it with the appropriate equipment and equipment. These are two different areas in which the scale of investment and the number of products produced differ significantly. Accordingly, the opportunities to earn money will be different.
When producing at home, it is impossible to prepare the documents necessary to send dumplings to the shelves. grocery stores. Rospotrebnadzor, SES and other authorities issue permits, certificates, certificates only for products manufactured in specially equipped premises. Therefore, you can make dumplings for sale only for friends, relatives or private consumers. But you won’t earn much capital from this.
Opening a dumpling shop, even a small one, provides greater opportunities than home production. A small business in the production of dumplings usually starts as a family business and gradually gains momentum. It is irrational to start right away with a large complex, given the scale of competition. It is better to move from small to large, taking into account mistakes and finding attractive recipes for consumers. In addition to dumplings, the production can produce dumplings with various fillings. It won't be a big hassle because the molding principle is the same, but the revenue may be higher due to the variety of choices for customers.
The right start
Where should a beginner start if he is attracted to a business idea for producing dumplings? Any business begins with a deep analysis of the selected market segment and writing detailed business plan. Without this, you will not be able to understand what investments will be required to initial stage and whether this direction is profitable in a particular region. If the findings are positive, then the following steps will have to be completed:
- Register your entrepreneur status.
- Find a premises that meets the requirements for the location of food production.
- Collect a package of documents from government agencies that will allow you to open a dumpling shop.
- Develop a recipe and decide what list of products will be produced in production.
- Select equipment.
- Explore potential partners who will be able to provide the workshop with high-quality raw materials.
- Resolve the issue of staffing.
- Find distribution channels for semi-finished products.
- Develop a marketing strategy.
These are the main points in implementing your idea of producing dumplings. Let's look at each stage in more detail.
Organizational aspects
When considering the algorithm of actions for a novice entrepreneur, we will focus on opening a separate dumpling shop, rather than home-made dumplings. You can start either by searching for suitable premises or by registering a business. Although, when submitting documents for registration to the Federal Tax Service, you will have to submit a lease agreement or evidence of ownership of a specific object.
A new entrepreneur must take care of premises that:
- Meets the requirements of the SES and fire department.
- Has access to water supply, electricity, sewerage.
- Spacious, it is possible to arrange equipment and ensure the safety of raw materials and products.
- It is desirable that production be located close to a populated area to reduce transportation costs. This is beneficial for expanding the scope of activity if over time it is decided to open your own dumpling cafe.
If the premises are to be rented, then you need to agree with the owner about a long stay, so that during the recovery stage you do not have to curtail production and change the location.
Business registration
For a dumpling shop, two forms of work are relevant: individual entrepreneur ( individual entrepreneur), if there is one owner, and LLC (limited liability company), if several partners will invest in the business. In any case, you need to collect a complete package of documents, pay the state fee and contact the regional tax office. When filling out the application, you must select the type of main and additional activities according to OKVED. The following codes are suitable for the production of dumplings:
- Main view entrepreneurial activity select "Production" food products"(code 10).
- There are two additional options: for dumplings with meat – “Production of meat (meat-containing) semi-finished products” (code 10.13.4), for dumplings with potatoes – “Production of frozen semi-finished potato products” (code 10.31).
At the registration stage, you must select a taxation system so that the tax office does not automatically make charges for common system, which may be disadvantageous for a novice entrepreneur. You need to consult with tax authorities, but most often businessmen choose the simplified tax system according to the “income minus expenses” scheme, given that at the first stage there will be a lot of expenses.
Don’t forget to register with the Pension Fund, Social Insurance Fund, and Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund if you plan to hire employees. In production, it is impossible for one owner to do all the work, even with full automation of the workshop.
We collect a package of documents
Business legalization is not the only paper stage. After receiving the certificate, you will have to go through other authorities to obtain permission to open a dumpling shop. What documents need to be collected:
- Lease agreement for the selected premises.
- Certificate of inspection of the premises by firefighters (usually this document is drawn up by the owner of the property).
- Technical passport for the premises with the latest edition of the redevelopment.
- Recipe approved by Rospotrebnadzor.
- Technical conditions.
- Conclusion of the SES on the condition of the areas where production will be located.
- Engineering and technological communications projects (location electrical networks, water supply, sewerage, hoods, fire alarm, panic button).
- Products will require a quality certificate if sales are planned in grocery stores.
- Permission from the administration and architecture to open a dumpling shop, posting information on the facade of the building.
Documents can be collected gradually. First of all, it is advisable to undergo an inspection of the premises so that the investment will not be in vain if the SES does not issue a permit and it will be impossible to correct the shortcomings. After approval, you can contact design services that will help you arrange the room and properly plan the space.
Production equipment
This stage is the most expensive and stressful, because it is necessary to bring all the rooms into proper condition, select and order equipment, provide conditions for the work of personnel, storage of raw materials and products. Objects in a dumpling shop or warehouse should be placed ergonomically so as not to make unnecessary movements. To complete the production hall, you will need equipment that corresponds to the planned daily production plan.
At this stage, it is advisable to study different equipment proposals, analyze the characteristics and cost. For a novice entrepreneur, in order to save money, there is the option of purchasing used equipment. But this may be a “pig in a poke” if the resource of equipment and devices is coming to an end. Repairs will be expensive and will result in downtime for the dumpling line.
A standard set of equipment for mechanical modeling of dumplings and dumplings may consist of the following items:
- Dough mixer for kneading dough. Its cost depends on power, bowl volume and hourly productivity. Varies from 50,000 to 300,000 rubles.
- A flour sifter allows you to remove lumps and small inclusions from the mixture and saturate it with oxygen. The average cost for one set is from 25,000 to 100,000 rubles.
- Meat grinder for chopping meat. The assortment is large, but it is worth considering production volumes. The cost of an industrial meat grinder is from 50,000 to 500,000 rubles.
- A mince mixer is used for mixing necessary ingredients. The better the process, the more homogeneous, rich and tastier the minced meat turns out. Prices range from 70,000 to 500,000 rubles.
- An automatic complex for making dumplings, into which dough and minced meat are loaded and where programs are configured. The products go through the entire stage from dough rolling to dumpling packaging and labeling. Such a device can cost from 300,000 to 1.5 million rubles.
- Refrigeration equipment will be required for warehouse where raw materials and finished products will be stored. The dumpling shop also needs a pre-freezing refrigerator finished products before the stage of packaging and sending for storage.
- Do not forget that funds will be required for consumables for equipment, packaging, labels, scales, various containers, dishes. Staff rooms must be equipped with a wardrobe, bathroom, and shower to ensure employee hygiene.
- In the administrative building it is necessary to install upholstered furniture, cabinet furniture, and office equipment.
You don't have to spend a lot of money on repairs. It's enough to make it simple redecorating to keep it clean, and think about light sources and hoods.
Recipe development
The market offers a wide range of dumplings with various fillings, so the owner needs to develop his own product recipe in order to be able to attract consumers. Without a ready-made recipe and a list of manufactured products, it will not be possible to obtain approval from Rospotrebnadzor.
Perhaps your mother or grandmother prepared dumplings according to their family recipe and their taste was unforgettable. Then you can take it as a basis. But one type is not enough to get large audience consumers. Tastes and preferences vary, so can be used for filling different types meat:
- Beef.
- Pork.
- Veal.
- Mutton.
- Bird (various).
- Game (hare, venison, etc.).
- Rabbit.
The more diverse the choice, the more buyers. You can order a recipe from an experienced technologist if such a position is not provided in the state.
Packaging is also important detail in the sale of products, it is worth discussing this issue with the designers if there is no option for selling dumplings and dumplings by weight.
We are staffing
Small-scale dumpling production requires hiring employees. Even a fully automated workshop must be controlled by a person in order to lay down the ingredients, set up the work program, and turn on the conveyor. Small business often involves the participation of family members, but each participant must have an employment contract and have a health certificate in hand. For small production services required:
- Equipment operator.
- Technologist.
- Butcher.
- Warehouse Manager.
- Helper worker.
- Loader.
- Cleaning woman.
The owner can handle administrative work and the issue of searching for suppliers and distribution channels, so as not to spend money on an administrator and manager. We hire an accountant part-time, because there will not be a large amount of work at the initial stage. You can do many paperwork yourself. Employees are paid a salary because it makes no sense to determine the salary level based on sales volume.
Selection of raw material suppliers
Making dumplings is not only equipment, but also high-quality raw materials at an affordable price. You need to find suppliers of meat, spices, and vegetables in advance. It is not profitable to buy products at the market or in a store, because the price will be very high, which will affect the final cost of the dumplings. In order to make money and not spoil the impression of buyers, you need a farmer who raises animals for slaughter and has documents confirming the quality of the meat. Without certificates, it will not be possible to sell dumplings through retail chains.
Spices and flour can be bought at wholesale stores, but you should make sure of their quality. The type of flour will greatly affect the external characteristics of semi-finished products and their properties in finished form. First, you need to make a trial purchase and make a small batch of dumplings to see the result. You can deliver raw materials yourself or enter into a delivery agreement with a partner.
We think about product sales in advance
Although dumplings are not a perishable product, keep a large batch in stock for a long time unprofitable. Therefore, before starting production at full power need to find a sales channel:
- Small grocery store.
- Dining room, cafe.
- Rent a small area and install a chest refrigerator.
- Go to chain shopping centers.
- Participate in agricultural fairs and sell dumplings from a tent on wheels.
In any case, you shouldn’t expect great demand right away, because until the consumer tries it, he won’t buy several packages. You can release a trial batch of products and organize a tasting of dumplings so that people can evaluate the quality and leave requests for single deliveries.
Start looking for distribution channels at the stage of preparing production for opening in order to control production volumes and not work at a loss. Investments must pay off; the profitability of dumpling production should not be lower than 25%.
Advantages and disadvantages
Before starting to implement a business idea, it is worth studying the pros and cons of this direction, so as not to curtail production after investing large amounts of money. The disadvantages of the dumpling business include the following:
- You are unknown to the consumer, and it takes time to get enough customers at once (this is especially true in food production).
- It is difficult for newcomers to enter large retail chains, because companies set conditions in which it is impossible for the manufacturer to make good money unless they inflate the cost of the product. And this is not in favor of the consumer. Retail chains transfer money with delays, so the manufacturer must pay all expenses independently without making a profit.
- It is difficult to find premises suitable for locating production. We have to invest in redevelopment, provision of water supply, electricity, and other communications.
- The competition is serious, but it all depends on the location of the new workshop, the quality, range and cost of the goods presented on the shelves.
The advantages include the following indicators:
- There is always a demand for dumplings. Even a family with average income often fills the freezer with semi-finished products in order to cook them at the right time.
- Consumers choose quality. If competitors think only about profit, greatly inflate prices, add soy and flavorings, then it makes sense to compete with them in quality and reasonable price.
- You can make money even on small batches and not spend money on expensive equipment. Use regular kitchen appliances, get your family to make dumplings by hand, or use a special dumpling mold.
- There is a prospect for expansion if you open a dumpling shop or a small outlet to sell your products personally.
It is profitable to establish sales in countryside, where the range of products is not always large. Even rural residents don’t always want to make homemade dumplings. Therefore, it makes sense to start your own business.
Eventually
Despite the large number of enterprises engaged in the production of semi-finished products, the demand for dumplings and dumplings will never disappear. There is no point in jumping into a large complex right away, but for a small business, such as a family business, it makes sense to start in the food industry. A good option might be a dumpling shop with the function of selling ready-made dishes, the so-called dumpling shop. The principle of registration and preparation for opening is approximately similar, but requires more investment. Although the profitability may be higher.
In fact, now factories are not only those built in Soviet times colossuses and European colossi are industry leaders. There are also mini-factories that are quite capable of creating good competition in the hands of even a small business. And this specific type has its own undeniable advantages, which can and should be used.
Advantages of small production complexes
Mobility. Naturally, the main advantages come from the main difference between such plants - their size. Mini-factories usually do not cause difficulties in assembly. And there is no need to look for an area of several hectares; accordingly, it is possible to significantly save on rent. And if necessary, quickly arrange a move for your plant.
Economical. Savings are evident in everything. Starting from the prices of production equipment and ending with the amount of expenses for wages. After all, the mini-complex will employ a much smaller amount of human resources. However, remember that often repair and maintenance work is not so economical.
Efficiency. Such mini-factories use technologies that differ from standard enterprises. This is a new branch of production development, so the use of other resources coupled with technology allows us to develop faster and more efficiently.
Environmental friendliness. Nowadays, especially if you follow the path of European standards, and it is almost impossible not to do this on the world market, environmental friendliness for your enterprise will not remain in last place. Processes of waste processing, use of recyclable materials - all this not only provides required level"cleanliness" of the plant and environment, but is also a powerful marketing tool in the right hands.
Exclusivity. The opportunity to create a non-standard, use individual solutions and in every possible way stand out from competitors is gaining popularity. And the price for such things differs from market price on standard things in a big way.
Support from the state. Now in different countries, including in Russia, many programs have been created to support the development of small business ideas. If you plan to use socially significant areas, you have every chance of receiving subsidies from government agencies. Environmentally friendly production, by the way, refers specifically to the subsidized area. And not necessarily only businessmen starting a business in the capital can count on this. Small towns are also eligible for the program, and starting a business there is often easier. (By the way, many people start with garage production).
Variety of species
At this stage of development of this area of business, several main directions can be distinguished, based on the industries to which mini-factories belong.
Building sector. These are enterprises producing various kinds Construction Materials, concrete, brick, mixtures for mortars, different types of tiles - from paving to ceramic, building materials for external and interior decoration premises.
Food industry. This includes food processing (for example meat or milk), canning, production of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, production bakery products. And complexes designed for catering establishments.
Processing industry. There are complexes for processing waste, garbage, and recyclable materials.
Packaging industry. Container production, packaging production.
Light industry sector. Production of cosmetics, perfumes, household goods, textiles.
It should be noted that this is only a small part of a possible list consisting of those industries that are now most popular among entrepreneurs. They are the ones who have good indicators of return and the ratio of payback and invested resources. But in no way should you limit yourself to this when choosing a direction. So, you can, for example, opt for the woodworking industry, or a complex for the production of hardware products; fortunately, in the market for such services, the choice is not limited in any way. And all you have to do before making a choice is to evaluate the optimal price-quality ratio for you, focusing on your desires and capabilities.
As for choosing a manufacturer for your future equipment, the choice here is also not limited, including countries. So, if earlier entrepreneurs in our country settled on offers mainly from Western manufacturers, now everything larger number businessmen choose China. Their quality is constantly growing, bringing to the world market brands that are no longer inferior to other European brands, and their prices compare favorably. Therefore, it will not be superfluous to familiarize yourself with all the available offers, as well as with the reviews of those who have already used this or that product. Fortunately, worldwide access to the information network allows us to do this with maximum coverage.
Offers from Chinese manufacturers equipment
Brick production. The raw materials for this industry are clay or waste from metallurgical and mining industries, as well as cement and water. Pigment-containing substances are used for coloring. For the production of hollow bricks - sawdust.
Milk production and processing. With the help of complexes in this industry, milk is filled into containers. As well as the production of dairy and fermented milk products. Such as kefirs of various fat contents, yoghurts, butter and cheeses, koumiss. The capacity of the mini-plant is enough to achieve processing rates of up to 20,000 liters of milk of various types - cow, camel, mare, goat.
Production of foam blocks. To set up production, you do not need to master complex high technologies, and the process itself allows you to get by with small financial investments. But it is ideal for those entrepreneurs who want to develop their business in construction industry. The excellent quality of such mini-production and at the same time a competitive advantage will be the fact that such production does not require space; it can be organized directly on construction site, thereby reducing a significant part of the costs for the logistics component. Also, in addition to saving money, the entrepreneur gets the opportunity to control the quality of his products, which directly affects demand. The payback period for a foam block production plant is extremely fast compared to other types of production.
Garbage recycling. Distinctive feature This type of production complex is that you will need to obtain licenses from the relevant services. Fire department sanitary and waste processing license. However, as mentioned earlier, it is the environmental orientation of the business that will allow you to become a participant in entrepreneurship support programs and receive a grant for the development of your business.
Production of compound feed. If you are planning to develop your business in the agricultural sector, or are a farmer yourself, wanting to reduce the cost of purchasing and delivering feed for your farm, then this area is for you. The production complex allows us to focus on the production of complete feed for animals and birds, feed concentrates and balancing feed additives.
Release toilet paper. The raw material in such production is waste paper. Again, in this regard, the social role of your enterprise increases, and you can count on various benefits and subsidized support from the state. Well, the demand for such products will never weaken, which means that with the right planning and strategy for your business, you can achieve good results.
Price of the production complex
The cost of a mini-plant varies depending on the cost of equipment, necessary expenses for delivery of the complex to the buyer, customs costs for documentation and taxes. Prices on the market vary depending on the completeness of such plants, as well as the power of the equipment and its productivity. Therefore, as was written earlier, it is better to spend more time analyzing all offers on the market and reduce possible expenses already at the first steps of your business.
So, for example, a complex allows the production of porous bricks, made in China with a productivity of 10,000 pieces per eight-hour shift will cost around 25 thousand dollars. But the same mini-factory, capable of producing 10 times more in one shift, and also producing paving slabs will cost $130,000. Therefore, you need to choose knowing exactly what volumes you need and already having an idea about selling your own product.
Production complexes for the production of foam blocks at prices start from 100,000, but can easily reach up to two million rubles. Again, perhaps you will find a favorable offer from a Russian supplier. Then the costs of delivery and customs clearance will be reduced.
For one million rubles you can also find complexes from the food processing industry that will allow you to produce mayonnaise, ketchup, sauces, canned fish, juices and nectars, purees, marinades, chips, vegetable oil, but perhaps you have a goal for one specific product and then you will be able to find something cheaper. There are many options.
But production lines for processing milk and meat are initially more expensive. Prices start from two million and sometimes reach 20-30. But a mini-canning plant can cost only 500,000.
When it comes to waste recycling, the price varies depending on what types of waste you will be recycling. If these are tires, from which the output will be rubber crumb, then you will find a price tag of one and a half million, but processing PET and PVC is much more expensive - about 10 million.
How to choose?
If the choice fell on foreign technologies, keep in mind that it will be more convenient to make the purchase through an intermediary company that will take care of all the details. There are plenty of specialized offices on the market. They will not only take care of the paperwork, but in some cases will also deliver the goods and carry out the necessary installation. Of course, their services are not free, but in the end you will save both time and nerves, and the costs of specialists can be recouped by a quick start and the absence of unexpected situations during the first tests of the equipment.
Remember that you should already know in advance the sales corridor for your future products. You should also know about your competitors and how demand behaves. All this should be reflected in the business plan. This is the only way to achieve a high-quality development strategy for your business and not lose money and time.
If all costs, both mandatory and probable, are taken into account, if all steps not only for organizing production, but also for its immediate development are outlined, then you will be able to get your first real profit very soon. And the difficulties that arise in any case different stages organizing any entrepreneurial business will not make your hands give up.

“Money itself is only a means of exchange; its existence is impossible without the production of goods and people who know how to produce.

In the hands of slackers and beggars, begging with tears for the fruits of your labor, or bandits who take them from you by force, money loses its meaning and ceases to be a means of exchange.
