Frequently Asked Questions

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 fruit-flavored milk drink 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.

Fruit-flavored milk drink manufacturing requires raw materials such as milk (fresh or powdered) as the base, fruit juice or concentrate for flavor, and a sweetener like sugar or corn syrup. Additionally, stabilizers (e.g., carrageenan, xanthan gum), emulsifiers, flavoring agents, and vitamins or minerals are often added to improve texture, enhance flavor, and increase nutritional value.

A fruit-flavored milk drink factory typically requires milk pasteurizers, homogenizers, mixing tanks, flavor and sugar dosing systems, filtration units, sterilization equipment, filling and sealing machines, bottle washers, along with labeling and packaging machines.

The main steps generally include:

  • Receive and test raw milk for quality assurance

  • Pasteurize milk to eliminate harmful microorganisms safely

  • Homogenize milk to ensure uniform texture and stability

  • Mix milk with fruit pulp, flavors, and sweeteners

  • Filter and standardize blend for desired consistency

  • Sterilize mixture to enhance shelf life effectively

  • Fill, pack, and label bottles under hygienic conditions

  • Store and distribute finished drinks in cold chain

Usually, the timeline can range from 12 to 24 months to start a fruit-flavored milk drink 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.
