The important role of dried fruit industry in entrepreneurship
The food industry is one of the most profitable industries in the world. Dry fruit production, as one of the subsets of this field, is not an exception to this rule. In general, entrepreneurship in the field of food industry is considered a safe, low-risk and quick-return investment; Because wherever we are in the world, inflation and economic pressure reduce purchasing power in every field, but food is the only thing that can never be eliminated and always plays a prominent role in the families’ spending basket.
On the other hand, people’s tendency towards healthy nutrition and lifestyle has made the consumption of dried fruit popular. If you are looking for entrepreneurship and job creation, the dried fruit industry is a very favorable option for you. Because setting up a dry fruit production line does not require a lot of initial capital, and on the other hand, the geographical location of Iran, its climate and its four seasons, and of course the variety of fruits in Iran have made the conditions for dry fruit production available. A suitable opportunity that not only covers the domestic market of Iran, but also provides suitable conditions for export.
It is interesting to know that many people refer to the Zamens fruit dryer as a money-making machine and compare the high profitability of this machine to a banknote printing machine. Of course, it goes without saying that making money and earning money in this way, like any other job, has its own challenges and it can never be said that everything is ideal and very easy. Therefore, if you also want to work in the dry fruit production business, it is better to get to know more about this business, the challenges and the necessary equipment to work in it.
In the first step, you need to get a quality fruit drying machine. The quality of this machine is a very effective factor in the production of quality dried fruit, and if the machine does not have the ability to produce a desired dried fruit in the shortest possible time, the producer will suffer irreparable losses. So, before buying a fruit drying machine, do the necessary research and buy from a reliable fruit drying machine manufacturer.
In the next step, you need a corer and slicer so that you can core the fruits with stones and cut all kinds of fruits in a completely uniform way. Using a slicer machine not only increases the quality of the dried fruit produced, but also increases the speed of the production process. This equipment is among the most essential tools to start work. But an advanced workshop requires a fruit washing tub, a vegetable washing tub, a vegetable drainer, a worktable and more advanced models of slicers, peelers and corers
Be sure to note that the produced dried fruits should be stored at a temperature of about 5 degrees in a dry and cool place.
As mentioned earlier, dry fruit production, although very profitable, has its own challenges like any other job; Therefore, it is necessary to always pay attention to some points.
The first point is to try to get the fruit directly from producers and gardeners. Be strategic and produce fruit chips according to the agricultural products of the region. For example, the producer of fruit chips in your country does not have proper access to tropical fruits. Therefore, it is better to buy tropical fruits not at a high price and through different intermediaries and then dry them, but to buy dried tropical fruits directly from the producer of tropical regions and add them to your dried fruit packs.The next point is that during the production of dried fruit, you must follow the health tips completely so that the dried fruit you produce is of good quality.Another point is that if you are looking to export your products, be sure to get enough information in this field.Identify the target market and be active in all sales platforms, either face-to-face, virtual or online. Selling fruit chips at retail is more profitable than wholesale, but the hassle of selling wholesale is much less.
And in the end, never forget that Iranian dried fruit has many fans not only inside Iran, but all over the world, and although our country is under embargo, many countries still buy this dried fruit through intermediaries. So, if you are interested in this field and decide to become an entrepreneur in the dried fruit industry, act as soon as possible. To get advice and get more information, go to Zamens website.
