    Food supplements are products that complement nutrition through the macro and micronutrients that it possesses. For this reason, this research work studied the feasibility for the creation of a microenterprise in the city of Ambato dedicated to the elaboration of food supplements from of Andean grains such as amaranth, chia, quinoa and sacha Inchi. For this reason, this research work analyzed the administrative part, studies: market, technical and financial. The administrative part established the business philosophy, as well as its organization. The market study identified the environment that the company faces, in addition to segmenting it, evidencing a surplus for the commercialization of food supplements. The technical study established the engineering of the project with the necessary equipment and supplies for the different economic and financial scenarios. A feasibility was determined for the company with a base production and a commercialization greater than 1000 units, analyzing its monthly and annual behavior and a five-year projection. The microenterprise of food supplements presents a good scenario for its constitution in the city of Ambato, the same one that addresses issues of food security and sustainable development objectives (SDG), a competitive advantage is the industrialization of the national raw material and the power of negotiation with suppliers and customers, which allows the microenterprise to compete with the products of foreign companies.
