Through this project, the expansion of our product at the national level
as an international entity that is dedicated to offering a quality product as well as high in
nutritional values, in addition to having the fundamental objective of increasing competitiveness
from banana flour.
1.1. Characteristics
The importance of bananas as a food crop in tropical areas cannot
Underestimate. Bananas are divided into two categories:
Cooking bananas, including plantains and other sub-groups of
varieties like Pisang Awak in Asia.
The bananas for desserts or sweets, among which the Cavendish subgroup stands out.

2. Project Definition
The production of Banana Flour would constitute an industrial innovation that would facilitate the
insertion in the productive activities of the agricultural field.
The production of flour from bananas, for the manufacture of bakery products and
Pastry such as breads and cookies, cakes, etc., would constitute a product.
innovative.
In addition, the banana provides carbohydrates, potassium, vitamins, magnesium, among others.
nutrients, which makes it a fruit with high international demand. The production of
Banana can vary; there is both conventional banana and organic banana.
conventional banana requires chemical fertilizers, unlike organic banana which
it is free from conventional pesticides, artificial fertilizers or transgenics, in addition to
what positively contributes to the environment. Therefore, the price difference between both
it also varies, with organic bananas having a higher value.
2.1 Name
The name arises from the reason to create an innovative company that involves products
new and useful for the market.
2.2 Nature
The nature of the microenterprise is the production of flour, which consists of the transformation
of high quality green bananas at accessible prices for the city market.
2.3 Location
It will be located in the city of MARCAVELICA in the District of SULLANA.
Provide a quality product with high nutritional value, aimed at satisfying the
expectations of our clients, to be a leading company in the international market
recognized for its high standards of quality, so that we can position ourselves in
highly demanding markets. Offering a quality product starting from an organic banana
that meets the needs of bakeries and pastry shops.
Banana flour is considered a simple, low-cost product to obtain.
food product, obtained from the dehydration, grinding, and sieving of the pulp of
green bananas.
The flour obtained can be used as a partial substitute for wheat flour for the
elaboration of baking products, with the aim of combining nutritional properties
of both fruits. The peel can be used through the same process for the
obtaining food for animals.
Through the dehydration process, rejected bananas could be utilized.
export promoting the establishment of small industries in order to provoke savings of
currencies to the country, through the substitution of wheat flour imports that are widely used in the
country, through bakeries and pastry shops.
Main contributions of the Banana
The main contributions of banana production to the Dominican economy are recorded in
different aspects to know:
c) Combats extreme poverty, given that the main banana plantations in the country are
are located in the southwestern and northwestern provinces of the country, which evidence
the highest poverty rates.
Determine the technical, economic, and financial feasibility to allocate resources for the
investment in a project that produces banana flour, bakery production and
pastry, in the provinces, starting from a strategic alliance between small and
medium producers, who are part of the populations.
YEAR OF UNIVERSALIZATION OF HEALTH
To determine the current situation of Banana Flour, a survey will be applied to the
direct users of the product, namely bakeries and pastry shops; through the
interviews, it is possible to determine the potential of the demand and the level of acceptance of the
product. Through the application of the survey, the market size and profile will be defined
of the consumer.
It will be based on secondary sources obtained from the National Statistics Office, the IDIAF, the
Ministry of Agriculture, the FAO, quarterly bulletins from the Central Bank of the Republic
Dominican Republic, the Institute of Innovation in Biotechnology and Industry, as well as pages of
Internet, among others, relates to the vegetative cycle of the banana, cultivated surface destined for the
production, annual sales levels, yields, prices and information classified by
region and months for a specific period.
2.5.3 Marketing
Upon analyzing the company, it has been concluded that for the development of the
In a competitive and developing environment, a salesforce is required that

market and accelerate the company's growth process.
Introduce ourselves to the flour market as a producer and marketer of banana flour.

This determination is made based on the surveys.
Consumers will be the pastry chefs, bakers, and the general population where these
they will be able to use and consume as a substitute for wheat flour, which in turn enjoys
vitamins and calories that will be a natural product without preservatives.
Through this strategy, the company aims to achieve a greater market share in the
market and be an optimal purchasing option especially for consumers

first, the price of the banana is at an intermediate level in our country. Moreover,
the raw material produced by the country is of good quality and this allows the product to be
of good quality.
b) Indirect competition: They are Emapa and Trigal who do not produce this product, but
that by their nature could offer in the future. they only focus on other products.
Our strategy to achieve competitiveness would be to synthesize in the flour offer at a price.

of Banano, mainly in the area of influence of the Project, that is, in the provinces
directly involved, as well as in the rest of the country. The analysis of behavior
of the flour market, suggests part of the behavior of the banana market, as
main input for its processing, as it will use non-exportable or second-grade bananas.
This will allow us to know the magnitudes and future trends of these products.
3.1. Demand Analysis
The demand for organic and natural products arises from a conjunction of needs of the
consumer. This need transforms into demand and begins to be interpreted and
"satiated" by the productive sector. Unlike other products or movements that arise
of technology and are imposed as needs on society, the demand for 49 products
natural arises in the consumer and awakens interest in production due to its potential
of the business.
Banana flour is a product that provides functional properties that are beneficial for
health. This product will be made from green bananas, which will then be peeled,
cut, dried, and ground
In order to reduce imports of wheat flour and take advantage of our potential
in agricultural production, flour production is a simple and low-cost process that
allows obtaining products with better storage characteristics at temperature
