1. Executive Summary
This project envisages production of 4,000 tons of weaning food per annum. The total
investment requirement of the project is estimated at about Birr 45.3 million; of which
Birr 25.66 million is for machinery and equipment while Birr 12.92 million is the cost of
working capital. Based on the cash flow statement, the calculated internal rate of return
(IRR) and simple rate of return of the project are 40 % and 36.8 %, respectively. And the
net present value (NPV) at 18 % discounting rate is Birr 36,068,417. The plant is
expected to create employment opportunities for about 41 persons.

Due to the widespread poverty prevailing in the Amhara Region, pregnant mothers do not
get proper and sufficient diet during pregnancy. This does not physically affect only the
mothers but also the yet-unborn babies. At birth most babies are below the normal
weight. After birth the mothers and the babies do not get the necessary diet in the
required amount and mix. The mothers remain weak and sickly; the children
underweight and susceptible to diseases. This lack of proper diet affects both the
physical and mental conditions of the children. When one travels through Amhara land,
it is common to see underfed, underweight and skinny children.
Currently Dubbe, Miten, Ediget and Fafa are the weaning foods which are available in
the market. All of which are situated in Addis Ababa. Due to the cost of transportation,
the lion share of their supply is for the population of Addis Ababa. Though it will not
eliminate the general shortage of food in the Amhara Region, production of weaning food
on a commercial scale will improve the food consumption of many if not all mothers,
babies and children in Amhara land.

SUPPLY OF WEANING

throughout the country; and the benefit of feeding weaning food was not popularized by
the media. But there is a strong need for the supply of weaning food for the demand is
there waiting to be met. It might be unrealistic to expect that all children in the Amhara
Region will consume weaning food simply because their parents may not afford to buy
the food. But, if, at least, 5 percent or 447,300 of the 8.9 million babies and children
(between 0-4 years of age) consume weaning food, and if a child consumes at the
minimum 100gm of weaning food per day, the annul demand will be 63,880 quintals or
6,388 tons of weaning food per year. This is more than the production capacity of 2
medium scale weaning food factories.
Such project contributes to the reduction of nutrition deficiency in the region, stimulates
production of legumes by creating a new demand for the crops, and diversifies the pattern
of food consumption in the region by reducing the high dependency on cereals and by
increasing the consumption of legumes.
Though it has not yet met, there is a potential demand for weaning food in the ANRS.
Future demand for the product will be influenced by population growth, income growth
and change in taste as well as awareness to more nutritive food items. The average GDP
growth rate for the period between1996 E.C and 2000 E.C was reported to be 10 %. With
high elasticity of demand for food and population growth (i.e. nearly 3 %), the fast
income growth is expected to generate a shift of demand from quantity to quality of food.
Thus, it will be reasonable to assume that the demand for composite flour can grow at
least 10 % per year for the coming decades. Based on this, the future demand for
composite flour is projected as follows.

As it is seen in the above projection, the demand for a weaning food in the ANRS is
expected to reach at 10,287 tons in 2005 E.C and 16,568 tons in 2010 E.C. This clearly
justifies the establishment of a medium scale composite flour producing plant in the
region.
The current average retail price of weaning food is Birr 31 .00 per Kg. Producers can sell
their product at factory gate price of Birr 23 per Kg. The project should mainly focus on
distributing their products to different urban centers of the ANRS using their own means.

4. Raw Materials and Utilities
4.1 Availability and Source of Raw Materials
As mentioned above, the main raw materials for weaning food are cereals (wheat, barley,
and oats), legumes (peas, beans, soybeans, click peas, lentils.....) and fruits. The ANRS is
one of the regions in the country, where these groups of crops grow relatively in large
quantities. The region can supply sufficient quantities of these crops for the plant to be
established.
The annual requirement of the raw materials and utilities are indicated in Table 4.1 and
Table 4.2 below.

The major equipment required for the plant include winnowing machine, electric dryers,
electric ovens, cooling steel vat, a crushing machine and mill stone.

The total cost of Machinery and equipments is estimated to be Birr 25.6 million; of which
Birr 21.7 million is required in foreign currency.
Due to technological and engineering requirements the production hall shall have four
story building with a total floor area of 716m2, and it costs Birr 3,660,192.00. This would
include cost of land preparation and associated civil works. The total land area of the
plant including the open space is 1200 m2. The cost of the land lease is Birr 72,000 which
is as per ANRS land lease rate for Bahir-Dar (which is equal to Birr 60 per square meter
for industrial purpose). Of the total cost of the lease, 5 % is paid in the beginning while
the rest will be paid in 40 years.

The major components of the investment are plant machinery and equipment, and
working capital. The foreign component of the project accounts for Birr 22.8 million or
50.6 % of the total investment cost.
The total production cost at full capacity operation is estimated at Birr 72.4 million (See
Table 8.2). Of the total production cost, raw materials and utility account for 87.8 %.

I. Profitability
According to the projected income statement (See Annex 4) the project will generate
profit beginning from the first year of operation and increases on wards. The income
statement and other profitability indicators also show that the project is viable.
II. Breakeven Analysis
The breakeven point of the projects is given by the formula:
11
Investment cost and income statement projection are used in estimating the project
payback period. The project will payback fully the initial investment less working capital
in two years.
SRR= (Net Profit + Interest)/ (Total Investment Outlay) at full capacity utilization.
Based on the foregoing presentation and analysis, we can learn that the proposed project
possesses wide range of benefits that complement the financial feasibility obtained
earlier. In general the envisaged project promotes the socio-economic goals and
objectives stated in the strategic plan of the Amhara National Regional State. These
benefits are listed as follows
A. Profit Generation
12
The project is found to be financially viable and earns on average a profit of Birr 14.5
million per year and birr 142.4 million within the project life. Such result induces the
project promoters to reinvest the profit which, therefore, increases the investment
magnitude in the region.
B. Tax Revenue
In the project life under consideration, the region will collect about birr 53 million from
corporate tax payment alone (i.e. excluding income tax, sales tax and VAT). Such result
create additional fund for the regional government that will be used in expanding social
and other basic services in the region
