DEHYDRATION OF ONION AND GARLIC - Manufacturing Plant, Detailed Project Report, Profile, Business Plan, Industry Trends, Market Research, Survey, Manufacturing Process, Machinery, Raw Materials, Feasibility Study, Investment Opportunities, Cost & Revenue
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Dehydration technology is well established and proven. Certain products like green peas cauliflower carrots spinach etc. command good prices during lean and off-season.Drying is one of the oldest methods of food preservation. Drying preserves foods by removing enough moisture from food to prevent decay and spoilage. Drying is highly energy consuming unit operation. Dehydration of vegetables by sun-drying is the oldest known method. Now modern techniques have been developed for dehydration of vegetables.The domestic garlic-dehydration industry takes meticulous measures to ensure an outstanding dried garlic product. The main advantages of dehydrated onions are that they are easy to store, being lighter in weight and smaller in bulk than fresh or other processed onions.

Market Survey
With growing incomes changing lifestyles and hectic daily schedule, market for dehydrated vegetables is growing especially in urban areas. Proper placement of products in the departmental stores super markets shopping malls etc. backed-up by publicity is the key to success. India is also a prominent exporter of dried and preserved vegetables to the world. The country has exported 138464,00 MT of dried and preserved vegetables to the world for the worth of Rs. 700.20 crores during the year 2011 12. Food processing industry in India is growing at 14% annum. It is estimated that potential for processed foods is estimated to reach from Rs 8,200 billion in 2009-10 to Rs13, 500 billion by 2014-15. The Indian food production is estimated at 500 million tonnes and food processing industry has immense potential. India is a large and growing market for food products as it is growing at about 1.6%annum.
