Capital requirements generally include land acquisition, construction, equipment procurement, installation, pre-operative expenses, and initial working capital. The total amount varies with capacity, technology, and location.
To start a coconut powder manufacturing business, one needs to conduct a market feasibility study, secure required licenses, arrange funding, select suitable land, procure equipment, recruit skilled labor, and establish a supply chain and distribution network.
Coconut powder manufacturing requires raw materials such as fresh mature coconuts (12–13 months old). Other essentials include clean water and food-grade packaging materials like BOPP pouches and printed cartons.
A coconut powder factory typically requires a dehusking machine, deshelling machine, testa (brown skin) remover, and a washing unit. For the drying and powdering stages, the essential equipment includes a pulverizer/disintegrator, a sieve/grading machine, and a hot air dryer.
The main steps generally include:
Selection and grading of mature coconuts
Dehusking, shelling, and paring of coconuts
Washing and sterilizing coconut kernels thoroughly
Grinding kernels to form coconut milk
Spray drying or desiccating to make powder
Sieving and cooling the dried powder
Packaging and sealing for storage or distribution
Usually, the timeline can range from 12 to 24 months to start a coconut powder manufacturing plant, depending on factors like site development, machinery installation, environmental clearances, safety measures, and trial runs.
Challenges may include high capital requirements, securing regulatory approvals, ensuring raw material supply, competition, skilled manpower availability, and managing operational risks.
Typical requirements include business registration, environmental clearances, factory licenses, fire safety certifications, and industry-specific permits. Local/state/national regulations may apply depending on the location.
