    Proyecto de factibilidad para la implementación de una planta procesadora de mermelada utilizando fresa (Fragaria sp) de calidad no comercial y edulcorante en el cantón Rumiñahui, provincia de Pichincha
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Alimentos, 2024-02) Alcocer Vasconez, Juan Fernando; Ruiz Robalino, Oscar Eduardo
    The feasibility project for the implementation of a jam-processing plant using non-commercial quality strawberries (Fragaria sp) and sweeteners in the Rumiñahui canton, province of Pichincha, aims to determine its viability, considering three main aspects: market study, technical study, and economic-financial study that goes hand in hand with the organizational framework. Focusing on the use of raw materials that do not meet the usual standards of the food industry makes them the central nucleus of the strategy for the production of the final product. The market analysis focuses on the reception of the product among potential consumers in the urban area of the Rumiñahui canton, province of Pichincha, considering purchasing patterns, presentation preferences, and taste acceptance. Simultaneously, the technical study allowed the identification of the optimal formulation through sensory tests and the selection of the appropriate technology, with the design of facilities in accordance with the regulations in force in the country. In the organizational framework, the mission, vision, policies, and corporate identity are outlined. A simple hierarchical organization chart was designed to detail the responsibilities and professional profiles of each collaborator. Finally, the economic-financial study evaluated the economic feasibility of the implementation of the plant, considering a time horizon of five years, calculating the total amount required for the initial investment of the project and the financial indicators, such as break-even point, Net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return, Payback Period and Return on Investment.

    The present project allows us to determine the feasibility of implementing a micro-enterprise to produce flavored drinkable yogurt with blackberry pulp in the Latacunga canton, through a feasibility study based on four study parameters: market analysis, technical study, administrative-organizational study, and financial study. The objective of the project is to introduce to the commercial market a line of dairy products such as yogurt drinks flavored with fruit pulp as an option to reduce the use of artificial flavorings and colorings that are used as chemical additives that can be harmful to the consumer's health because they cause side effects. The consumption of the product tries to be included in the target market as a strategy that is focused on the nutrition of the buyer, through the acquisition and introduction of yogurt to their daily diet. The market study determined the preferences and forms of consumption of the selected segment. The technical study identified the production capacity, process technology, and distribution of the plant, which is in the Latacunga canton, parish of Ignacio Flores. The administrative study established a hierarchical organizational structure with a solid business philosophy, consolidating Lácteos Tapia S.A. as a microenterprise dedicated to the production of quality dairy products. Finally, the economic analysis determined the feasibility and profitability of the project by applying a financial matrix where financial indicators such as VAN, PRI, TIR, ROI and break-even point (BEP) were obtained over a 5-year period.

    The production of tea and infusions in Ecuador is an oligopolized market due to the fact that not many companies decide to invest in the transformation and elaboration of this aromatic drink, originating the importation of other teas. As for the natural wealth in Ecuador, this is vast and poorly exploited, due to the fact that there is no adequate investigation of the novel plants that exist and that provide health benefits to those who consume them, a fact for which the flavors of tea of traditional herbs prevail on the market. This project includes the study for the development of a new product: infusion based on soursop leaves. From an investigation of the leaves of the soursop plant, the market study of the competition and the determination of the target population, qualitative and quantitative investigations to collect valuable information for the product, as well as an organizational structure that indicates in detail the constitution of the company together with the functions and duties of the personnel in charge. It also presents a technical study that establishes the distribution of the plant, its geographical location, the manufacturing technology of the infusion and the physicochemical parameters of the raw material. Finally, a financial study was carried out where the costs of raw material, machinery and equipment required were determined, obtaining as a result a total investment of USD 59.115,29, a NPV of USD 4.748,92 and an IRR of 22.33 percent, indicating that the business is feasible to implement.
