PRODUCTIVE PROPOSAL

1 BUSINESS IDEA

The business consists of strengthening the Association of Organic Producers of


Aromatic Plants in the area of marketing and added value of the productive chain of
aromatic herbs that they manage, with the aim of promoting economic and social
development in the area. With the acquisition of materials and equipment in this
link, the aim is to provide sustainability to the association that has been producing
aromatic herbs and with this contribution it will significantly contribute to improving
the quality of the product and therefore entering better national and international
markets.

1.1 BUSINESS DEFINITION

The Association of Organic Producers of Aromatic Plants - SIHUAS, aims to


improve the marketing of a wide variety of aromatic herbs, for culinary use,
preparation of aromatic and medicinal drinks in Peruvian homes. We seek to
reach the consumer's kitchen directly with a durable product for the moment of
preparation, with a product that, due to its presentation, can be kept on hand
and can be easily preserved in kitchens.
The differentiating element of APEPA lies in the fact that aromatic herb plants
are currently sold directly fresh, therefore there must be a very clear need to
go and look for them. With our proposal we want to be close to the consumer,
in the places that they frequent when making their purchases, in a place where
they can see them and the need to purchase them is generated, they include
them as a product in their basket and see them as a Excellent alternative to
replace other products that are normally found in supermarkets and stores,
such as condiments, sauces, dried herbs, fresh herbs and aromatic drinks,
among others.

Its presentation will be an important element to make the product attractive:

• Variety of species offered

Page | 3
• Presentation of the dry plant
• Sticker with the name of the species
• Label with the name of the plant, its description, origin, uses, properties,
care and recipes

b) References of the productive proposal

The increase in consumers, in the United States and Europe, for herbs or
species that are used as food infusions, medicinal or as a condiment to
season meals.
Consumer concern about preserving their health, the growing preference
for organic products, the spread of native species and the dispersion of
Asian and Latin American ethnic groups around the world are some of the
factors that explain the increase in the use of these herbs. .
The processing of medicinal herbs remains concentrated in Europe,
especially France, as well as in some Asian countries. Other production
areas include Yugoslavia, Germany, Bulgaria and Hungary.
Brazil is a strong supplier to the European Economic Community and
Japan, starting in the 1980s, giving impetus to the planning of the
cultivation of certain species. Brazil is the third largest exporter of herbs and
spices to the countries of the European Union.
The most important destination for aromatic products is the United States,
which concentrated 17% of the value and volume of world exports. Ten
countries imported 60% of the available volume and value, they were:
United States, Germany, Japan, United Kingdom, France, Singapore,
Malaysia, Spain, Netherlands and India

c) Experience

Since 1996, the Association of Organic Producers of Aromatic Plants has


been promoting the development of the production of aromatic herbs, which
has had a growing trend in production and marketing. Currently it has
assumed the productive chain approach and generate added value to the
production of aromatic herbs, to improve its positioning in the national
market and market directly to the external market with the sponsorship and
support of Sierra Exportadora.
Hierbas Aromáticas de Sihuas Pachachin SA - HAPSSA is a local company
established in 2004 that has machinery and that, in agreement with
APEPA, will be in charge of providing processing and packaging services
for the production and APEPA, with the support of Sierra Exportadora, will
carry out the marketing. internal and external aromatic herbs

PRODUCTIVE CHAIN OF AROMATIC HERBS IN THE PROVINCE OF
SIHUAS – ANCASH REGION”

2 MARKET RESEARCH

Peru is a country rich in natural resources and its wealth is based on its great biodiversity;
having contributed to the world with around 2,000 plants with healing properties. The
mountainous part of Peru has a very important diversity of aromatic and medicinal plants.

In recent years, interest in natural products has been increasing significantly, mainly
medicinal plants and aromatic herbs for their healing properties, whose consumption does
not cause harmful effects on human health and consequently does not present side effects
or sequelae.

Currently we are witnessing the boom of medicinal plants and aromatic herbs in the World
Market due to the preference in their consumption, having seen a notable development as
alternative medicine in various countries around the world. Likewise, Peruvian companies
with export experience are introducing these value-added products into the international
market, which is a good indication that we can successfully venture into this business
alternative.

Aromatic and Medicinal Plants: Tariff Classification


In the tariff classification, heading 1211 whose tariff description consists of “ Plants,
parts of plants, seeds and fruits of species used mainly in perfumery, medicine or
for insecticidal, parasiticide or similar uses, fresh or dried, whether or not cut,
broken or powdered .” Contains products such as ginseng, coca leaf, oregano, cat's
claw and lemon verbena; These products have a specific subheading which is
detailed below, and others such as basil, chamomile, boldo, eucalyptus, horseleaf
and others grouped under the stock subheading 1211.90.90.90.
Item 1211 also contains Peretro (Peritro) whose plant is used as an insecticide and
Poppy Straw from which opium is extracted; For the latter, no production and export
data have been recorded in our country.

Evolution of Peruvian Exports


One of the main exported products of item 1211 is oregano, which exceeds the
export values year after year; During 2011, exports of this product exceeded 11.4
million dollars, increasing the amount by 4.4% compared to the previous year.
As for cat's claw, although it reached an exported amount of US$ 454 thousand
during 2011, this decreased by -25.5% compared to 2010. On the other hand,
lemon verbena exports have been increasing, as has oregano, year after year;
However, this product has shown notable growth in recent years; So much so that
in 2011 exports increased by 58% as can be seen in the following table, exceeding
US$ 108 thousand.
For the subheading of other plants, a growing trend is also observed for exports of
various varieties of aromatic and medicinal plants, among those exported are
chancapiedra, boldo, annatto leaves, basil, ayahuasca, molle, muña, chuchuhuasi ,
graviola leaves, palo santo, valerian, chamomile, calaguala, camomille,
chancalagua, chacruma, culen, cuti cuti, dandelion, eucalyptus, valerian, lemon
verbena, sand flower and many others; Overall, exports during the last year

2.1 COLLECTION OF SECONDARY AND PRIMARY INFORMATION

To collect the information, primary and secondary sources were used, all in order to
obtain as much information as possible to prepare the business plan.

• Secondary Information
Consisting of statistical information from Minagri, ADEX, SIICEX and studies on
various economic, social, cultural, legal, technological topics linked to the chain of
aromatic herbs in Peru, which can influence the business proposal, this information
must be selected from reliable, official sources that are verifiable.

• Primary information:
This information was obtained through the meeting with the board and producers of
APEPA Association of Organic Producers of Aromatic Plants held on 12/11/13 at
6:00 PM in the town of Sihuas. In this meeting, the SWOT of the Association was
worked on with the participation of the producers.
Surveys were carried out, obtaining descriptive and quantitative information from the
106 partners, and verifying their plantations. This information was processed to
deduce the relevant indicators of the business and socioeconomic situation of the
association.

2.2 DEMAND ANALYSIS

■ Demand :
The consumption of aromatic plants has experienced sustained growth due to their
nutraceutical nature, that is, they satisfy nutritional needs and have benefits that also
promote health.
Aromatic plants have versatility in presentation and use: they are consumed fresh,
dried and ground; It is used for direct feeding, it is medicinal and for the
pharmaceutical and food industries. They have advantages for marketing: they can
be stored for long periods, they have few problems with pest attacks – rodents and
others. , higher price margins are obtained for added value.

In the case of Sihuas, the production of oregano, rosemary and thyme is mainly
aimed at the national market. Currently, the production of aromatic species is being
commercialized in the markets of Lima, Chimbote and Trujillo.

Currently, APEPA has managed, with the support of Sierra Exportadora, to articulate
the productive chain of the aromatic herbs of rosemary and thyme with the Company
Inka Fresh SAC, to the US market and there is demand from the European market
that can be met with the increase in new growing areas and new varieties of
aromatic herbs. The current demand for the foreign market from companies linked to
Sierra Exportadora is 150 tons of dried herbs.

The demand for new environmental dryers comes from new producers who will
expand their crops with aromatic herbs.

2.3 COMPETITOR ANALYSIS

It is currently known that the areas producing aromatic herbs are Tacna, Moquegua
(oregano), Arequipa, Cajamarca and Ancash. It is estimated that the cultivated area of
this product reaches 750 hectares, with an average annual production of 3,220 kg per
hectare-year. Their production is mainly aimed at the Lima market and they also serve
the large cities of the Peruvian coast.

With respect to rosemary, thyme, mint, chamomile and lemon verbena, there are
production areas in Huancavelica, Ayacucho, Arequipa, Junín and Ancash, but with
non-significant areas.

The strategy to face internal competition is based on the following aspects:


• Direct our production to the foreign market and in the national market to the markets
of Lima, Chimbote and the northern markets (Trujillo, Chiclayo and Piura);
• Continue improving technology to increase productivity;

• Post-harvest handling (drying and storage) to guarantee a good quality product;


• Generate added value to production, through rigorous selection, classification and
appropriate packaging.
• Diversify the supply of dried herbs, in addition to exotic ones, incorporate native
herbs.

The strategy to face external competition is based on the following aspects:


• Continue with production with organic management and manage organic
certification in the future.
• Diversify production through added value (for example oils, vacuum
packaging, etc.).

■ Offer :
It is currently known that the oregano producing areas are Tacna, Moquegua,
Arequipa, Cajamarca and Ancash. It is estimated that the cultivated area of this
product reaches 750 hectares, with an average annual production of 3,220 kg per
hectare-year.
With respect to rosemary and thyme, there are references to production areas in

Page | 9
Huancavelica, Arequipa, Junín and Ancash, but with non-significant areas.
To supply the national market such as Lima, Chimbote and Huaraz, APEPA sells
3,000 kilograms of dehydrated leaves (oregano, rosemary and thyme) annually. We
must also indicate that there are producers who go directly to the Chimbote market,
with oregano and rosemary.
The supply of dried aromatic herbs comes from the production areas located in the
districts of Sihuas, Cashapampa, Ragash, San Juan, Quiches and Cusca. Currently
there are 30 hectares and at the end of the 2015 agricultural campaign it is projected
to reach 100 hectares.

Rosemary
Two types of rosemary are sold: whole green dried rosemary and ground dried
rosemary. In addition, it is sold fresh and also mother plants for propagation.

Thyme
Two types of thyme are sold: whole green dried thyme and ground dried thyme. In
addition, it is sold fresh and also mother plants for propagation.
The crops of mint, chamomile and lemon verbena to date are not significant, it is
expected with the present PN to increase and motivate their production considering
the great demand for these products.

2.5 MARKET STRUCTURE

2.5.1 Previous analysis

INTERNATIONAL AROMATIC HERBS MARKET

The international herbs and spices market is traditionally destined for expert consumers
with extensive experience. The trade structure and marketing channels are the same for
aromatic herbs and medicinal species. There are very few who only deal with medicinal
plants.

Producers interested in being an active part of this market can join it if their production
responds to good quality and with distinctive properties to those already existing, in
terms of aroma, flavor, color, content of essential oils and fundamentally presentation of
the product. to compete with traditional suppliers. The growing conditions are also very
important since high levels of organic components are required for these products;
practically the market does not accept products with chemical concentrations.

It is a difficult market for those who want to enter directly without the intermediation of
traditional or established ones. Importers require commercial references from new
suppliers and are paid after receiving the merchandise, but not traditional suppliers, who
are normally paid. against the presentation of shipping documents.

Contracts are made based on samples of 20 to 100 grams, with a CIF quote for the port
of destination. There are contract models that specify quality, presentation, price,
transportation conditions, arbitration and payment conditions.

It is estimated that spices move around US$6 billion in the global market and that the
sector is growing 5 to 6% per year.

Page | 11
In the international spice trade, a value of more than 1.5 billion dollars is traded
annually. The three countries with the largest participation in the supply, according to
the average figures exported between 1997 and 2005, were Indonesia, with an average
annual amount of 144 million dollars; India, with 126, and Brazil, with 97 million.

Within Latin America and the Caribbean, Brazil, with the amount just indicated, is the
only country of importance in the global spice trade. The next countries in the region
export much lower quantities: Guatemala, 33 million dollars, and Mexico and Jamaica,
only 6 million each.

In terms of demand, the United States is the main importer, since it purchases
approximately 20% of the herbs traded in the world. Of that total, approximately 15%
generally comes from Latin America and the Caribbean.

The current market for culinary aromatic herbs has a sufficient supply in the EU market,
therefore the entry of new suppliers will have to displace existing ones by offering at
least the following:

o Better quality and without microbiological or chemical contamination


o Volume
o Stability in the offer
o Competitive prices, which implies that costs must be at least equal to those of
competitors.

MAIN WORLD IMPORTERS


The first 10 importing countries concentrate 61% of the total imported:
or United States : 18,6
or Germany : 7.8 %
or Japan : 7.8 %
or Singapore : 7,1 %
or France : 4,1 %

In Peru, perfect competition develops, where the demand for this product is greater
than the supply at the national level, hence the increase in imports in recent years.
According to national agricultural data, we do not record production of aromatic herbs,
but some productive areas have been identified in the country.

2.6 DETERMINATION OF THE DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP

At the national level there is a supply that does not exceed the country's internal
demand; part of the national production has always been destined for the foreign
market.

In the national market, the demand for thyme and rosemary is low, and there is
currently an overproduction of oregano that is driving the price down. Surpluses of this
product are being exported.

The consumption of organic products worldwide has a growing trend. The


consumption of aromatic plants has experienced sustained growth due to their
nutraceutical nature, that is, they satisfy nutritional and health needs as well.

The expansion of the cultivated area of rosemary and thyme and the new areas of
mint, chamomile and lemon verbena are motivated by the good prices they currently
have, especially by the proven quality obtained in the Sihuas area.

4 BUSINESS PLANNING

4.1 SITUATIONAL DIAGNOSTIC

- Productive impact: Increase in production, improve product quality through better drying
in environmental dryers (green color and greater aroma).
- Economic impact: Increase in supply, improvement in the price for a quality product
(green color and greater aroma), reduction in losses due to poor drying and increase in
the producer's income.
- Social impact: improvement in the productive practices of the members of the peasant
family.
- Environmental impact: nil, since we use solar energy and plant remains are recycled as
fertilizer.

5 MARKETING PLAN

5.1 PRODUCT STRATEGY

For the domestic market, the characteristics of a quality product are green color and good
aroma, in addition to being free of impurities.

For the external market, in addition to the above, proper selection, classification and
packaging are added, as well as future certification as an organic product.

5.2 PRICE STRATEGY

Prices are determined by production, marketing and transportation costs. And also
because of supply and demand.

It is essential that sales prices are based on production costs in order to guarantee levels
of profitability for all actors in the production chain.

This year the price of aromatic herbs has grown by 25%, due to the increase in planted
areas in southern Peru (departments of Arequipa and Moquegua, and to a lesser extent
other departments in the mountains of Peru).

5.3 PROMOTIONS STRATEGY

It will occur through participation in local, regional, national and external fairs, with the
support of Sierra Exportadora.
The implementation of an APEPA website is also relevant.

Page | 27
5.4 DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY

To reach the consumer in the domestic market, commercial agreements will be established
with processing companies (e.g., filters, etc.), in the case of Guagua Sana, Herbi SA,
Duncan, and in the case of lower quality material, establish agreements with distributors
and/or merchants. wholesalers, so that the entire production of dried herbs can be sold.
For the external market, commercial agreements will be established with
importing/exporting companies, such as the company Inka Fresh SAC, Agro Business
Group, the Swiss company Silvia + Peter Lendi Erboristi SA. In this case, there will be top
quality production with added value that allows improving final prices. In the national
market, the wholesale market of medicinal and aromatic herbs in Lima and Northern Peru
will be taken into account.

7 OPERATIONS PLAN

7.1 TECHNICAL ASPECTS PRIOR TO THE START OF PRODUCTION.

THYME
Thyme is a common kitchen herb in Europe and the United States. The thyme produced in
Sihuas comes primarily from the terminal flowers of the common thyme (Thymus vulgaris).
It has a wide range of culinary, medicinal and decorative uses. The herb is commonly used
for fillings and as an essential component of bouquet garni and herbal blends. It is widely
used to season soups, cheeses, liver and pork sausages, legumes and vegetables, fish,
game, poultry, pizzas, Italian sauces and some liqueurs.

The thymol content of the plant provides pronounced germicidal and antiseptic properties.
Thyme is used, therefore, to treat coughs and colds, as a fungicide ingredient, and in many

Page | 29
anti-mold preparations.
The essential oil is used above all for the medicinal and germicidal purposes already
mentioned. It is also used in perfumery, to make bath preparations, toothpaste and
mouthwash liquids, and widely in food dressings.
The meat industry uses very small amounts of thyme oleoresin as a flavoring agent.

ROSEMARY
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a versatile herb that is used somewhat in Spanish,
French, Greek, North African and Portuguese cuisines, and much more in British and
Italian cuisine.
The herb dresses meats, including lamb and sausages, sauces, legume and vegetable
dishes, poultry, seafood, stews, marinated products, etc. It often appears in boquet garni
and in herbal mixtures, but it must be used with care, because if the quantity goes too far,
the other ingredients in the recipe would be nullified.
Rosemary is also used for its antioxidant properties in the industrial manufacturing of meat
products.
Rosemary leaves allow the vapor of a yellowish essential oil to be obtained by distillation.
This oil is widely used in hair shampoos, bath essences, deodorants, cosmetic products,
perfumes (especially cologne) and insect repellents.

MINT
Mint is one of the aromatic plants most used in sweet dishes. It is an edible herb with
multiple properties beyond those related to gastronomy, which is why below we briefly
describe its effects on the body.
It facilitates digestion and helps eliminate gas and flatulence while relieving heartburn,
discomfort and nausea.
It has relaxing in the central nervous system action. It is analgesic and reduces pain due to
its refreshing effect and by stimulating blood circulation in the affected area, which is why
many muscle relaxants or gels contain its essence. It decongests the respiratory tract and
helps relieve colds and flu.
It has a refreshing effect and combats bad breath or halitosis.
It is a source of potassium, calcium, folic acid and vitamin A with antioxidant action. Mint is
an herb that can be used as an ingredient in a sauce, as part of a filling or cake, or to
decorate and color desserts or other sweet preparations. We can also obtain infusions with
it with all the aforementioned properties.
It is an herb with a great aroma and valuable nutritional properties that, together with
others, contribute to benefiting the body in different aspects.

CHAMOMILE
Chamomile has been used for centuries for its many medicinal properties. It was already
known in ancient Greece, Egypt and Rome and applied to treat a diverse variety of
ailments. Its use became popular during the Middle Ages, when it was consumed to relieve
different conditions such as asthma, nausea, nervous problems, skin problems, among
others.
Nowadays you can find chamomile in practically any country, since it is a very resistant
plant, which adapts to practically all climates. Its main properties are; anti-inflammatory,
antibacterial, anti-allergic and sedative properties, among others.
Chamomile also has important digestive properties . Consuming a cup of chamomile tea
after meals helps improve digestion and relieve stomach pain, as well as calm the nausea
caused by vomiting. The consumption of chamomile is ideal in treatments for gastritis or
stomach ulcers.
Thanks to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, chamomile is used to treat all
types of respiratory conditions and cold symptoms, such as asthma and bronchitis, high

Page | 30
fever.
Chamomile has important sedative properties , so if you have trouble sleeping you can
drink a cup of tea every night, and your sleep will be deeper. This relaxing property of
chamomile is also very effective in soothing menstrual pain.

KEDRON
Lemon verbena, also known as lemon verbena, whose scientific name is Aloysia triphylla ,
has many properties. Among others, it is attributed to antispasmodic and carminative
properties, as it promotes the elimination of gases accumulated in the digestive tract. In
addition, it has digestive and, to a lesser extent, sedative properties.
As an antispasmodic, lemon verbena is very useful for treating cases of diarrhea, both in
children and adults.
Due to the carminative properties of lemon verbena, it is recommended to treat cases of
gas accumulation, being very suitable for flatulence or bloating.
On the other hand, lemon verbena is very useful for controlling nerves and reducing anxiety
levels, since due to its properties, it acts as a sedative. Other medicinal properties of lemon
verbena are: Antihistamine: It has properties that reduce the effects caused by the release
of histamine, making it very useful for treating allergic reactions. Antiseptic: Lemon verbena
has properties that help prevent wound infections. Local analgesic: Due to its composition,
lemon verbena is sedative and analgesic, which reduces the sensation of pain caused by a
wound or injury.

9.6 BREAKEVEN ANALYSIS
The breakeven point is the amount of products or services that need to be sold to sustain
the business, that is, cover its fixed and variable costs. Likewise, it provides information
on the minimum quantity that must be produced and sold, in order not to win or lose.

■ Marginal Contribution.
Marginal Contribution = Sales Price - Unit Variable Cost

It is called "marginal contribution" or "contribution margin" because it shows


how much product prices contribute to covering fixed costs and generating
profits.

■ Breakeven.
The formula for calculating the balance point is as follows:

Fixed cost in the period ( t )


Equilibrium point, in the period ( t ) = —-----------3------—L—-— = Quantities in the period ( t )
Contribution margin,
in the period ( t )

Balance point inS/. = Quantities x Sales price

Where the time (t) can be: weeks, months, years, evaluation horizon (5 years) or useful
life of the production proposal.

11 CONCLUSIONS
ANNEXES
• Taking into account what has been described above, we conclude that it is
convenient to proceed with implementing the diversification of aromatic herbs
with mainly mint, chamomile and lemon verbena crops, which will increase the
crops that currently exist, which are thyme and rosemary. The producers
organized in the APEPA currently have the knowledge and experience in the
production of aromatic herbs, so the diversification and increase of production
areas will become profitable crops for small farmers in the provinces of Sihuas.

• We recommend that mint and lemon verbena crops are initially planted using
the seedbed logic. That is, producers install an average of 500 m2, so that from
there they can propagate and increase a larger area. This will also allow us to
observe the behavior and evolution of the price.

• According to historical studies of the price of aromatic herbs both in the national
and foreign markets, they have downward trends at certain times of the year;
however, the diversification and climatic conditions of the area allow for
production all year round, covering the market demand at the level of market
niches.
