Plan de negocios para la implementación de la biofábrica de insumos orgánicos en la comunidad San José de Tanquis, parroquia Columbe.

Abstract

A business plan was designed for the implementation of the organic-inputs biofactory in the community of San José de Tanquis, Columbe parish. The business plan included analysis, market study, biofactory strategies, marketing mix, production plan design, organizational plan, financial evaluation, and project awareness. Methods and techniques of field research were used for the analysis and market study by means of surveys for the farmers in the fourteen communities, including San José de Tanquis. Within the strategies of the biofactory, it was identified that the association called ASOPCINOR, which will be in charge of managing the biofactory, should be regulated under the name of the Superintendence of Popular and Solidarity Economy, and the mission, vision, values, objectives and competitive advantage were also established. In the first year it is planned to start with a production and marketing of 400 containers of biol and 742 sacks of bocashi whereas for the tenth year 4002 containers of biol and 7421 sacks of bokashi will be got. In terms of the administrative plan, the structural and functional organization chart was established, as well as the description of the required positions. Project awareness was carried out, which consisted on considering renting instead of buying the land and the construction of infrastructure in order to reduce the initial investment; on the other hand, the doubling of biol production was considered, which resulted in a positive NPV of USD 44,116.52, IRR of 17%, a B/C ratio of USD 1.72 and a payback in the eighth year, which is within the duration of the project. It is recommended to consider awareness of the project and apply all the strategies mentioned in the business plan, so that the implementation of the biofactory can be feasible.
