Tomato paste is one of the products that is in demand always and everywhere and has a firm place in the food basket of Iranian and even foreign families. As you know, the price of tomatoes decreases a lot every year at certain times, and the price of industrial tomato paste remains the same as before, so setting up a small paste-making workshop has good economic justification.
If you want to start a business at home or near you, then one of the best ideas is to produce tomato paste, which has many reasons behind this claim and the biggest reason is the impressive profit percentage of this product.
The space required for the tomato paste production workshop
In general, any space with good access to the three main sources of water, energy, and raw materials can be a suitable place to start a production line. For example, as a workshop introducing 5 to 10 tons of tomatoes per day, an area of about 70 square meters would suffice. It should be noted that you will need about 300 to 400 square meters for storing raw materials, storing manufactured products and also office space.
The number of people required for a tomato paste production workshop
The people required to start a small workshop depends on the number of machines used and also the daily production load of the workshop. For example, in the workshops that use packaging machinery, the number of workers is greater than in the bulk paste production workshop. In general, it can be said that a minimum of 2 to 3 people will be required to set up a small workshop.
Tomato squeezing machine
To start a home production line, the first thing you will need is a juicer or a machine to produce paste because if you are planning to start your own business, mass production without these machines is a very difficult task. And it will take a long time.
There are many types of industrial tomato pressing machines, and some of these machines can separate tomato pulp and juice from the pulp. Others can only separate the tomato juice from the pulp, and you can choose one of these two types according to your needs. It should be noted that washing such handicrafts does not require special skills and is very simple and easy.
These devices can be used both at home and in industrial environments, speeding up your production process. There is only one safety point when working with this device, i.e. care must be taken when placing tomatoes and washing the blade of the device. Juicers are made in different sizes and capacities, making it easier for you to choose according to your production and business volume.
Apart from using tomato juice at home, this product is also used in factories and workshops to produce tomato paste and sauce, and for this reason, manufacturers and experts have made the juicing process very easy for users by designing and producing this product. You can juice a large amount of tomatoes in the shortest possible time.
Economic forecasts for tomato paste production
One of the main concerns of entrepreneurs interested in food production is the net profit and economic justification of the final product. Starting a production line for this product, like other food products, requires careful and proper financial planning. Financial planning is the first step to take before investing.
This planning is a plan in which all current and fixed costs must be specified in full detail. Current costs include the cost of raw materials such as tomatoes, packaging containers such as paste jars and other similar costs. Fixed cost includes initial start-up costs such as hardware purchase cost, workshop rental cost, and other initial costs.
Final conclusion
We all know that a small tomato paste production workshop will have lower profit and sales than a large tomato paste factory, but we must also consider the low profit and cost ratio of setting up a workshop. You can make a big profit by paying much less than the factory. The short period of initial capital return and break-even period at 6 to 9 months, which indicates adequate profitability for this business.
