INTRODUCTION

A new food trial is being conducted in the city of San Pablo, Philippines, to invest

igate the effectiveness of local foods in improving the taste of dogs. Titled "Local

Flavor Delight: Investigating the Efficacy of Powdered Chicken Feet and Banana as

Canine Appetite Booster in San Pablo City” the study sought to determine whether

chicken feet with banana powder can improve the appetite of dogs in the city of San

Pablo.

The study takes place in the city of San Pablo, known for its diverse culture and

Gastronomic heritage. Inspired by the local food scene, the research team aims to solve

the problem of canine eating habits by using the delicious taste and nutritional properties

of locally produced food.

The decision to employ powdered chicken feet and bananas as the investigation's

primary ingredients was well thought out. High in protein, chicken feet are

frequently utilized in Filipino cuisine. They also contain vital minerals like collagen,

glucosamine, and chondroitin that support the health of a dog's joints.

Meanwhile, even the pickiest dog palates may be tempted by the naturally sweet and

seductive flavor profile of bananas, which are widely available in the Philippines.

Located along the busy major highway of San Pablo City, lies Barangay San

Roque, a valuable site for businesses that has a great access to raw materials. This

barangay, just a mere 15-minute drive away from the local market, gives a location that is

ideal for sourcing production inputs.

However, Barangay San Roque stands as a testament to sustainable development

practices, ensuring that environmental impact is carefully mitigated. With a strong

emphasis on eco-friendly operations, businesses in the area adhere to stringent regulatory

requirements aimed at preserving the local ecosystem. Efforts will be made to have a

good waste management protocols and renewable energy initiatives contribute to the

barangay's reputation as a safe and environmentally conscious production hub.

In addition to environmental considerations, community engagement plays a role

in shaping the landscape of Barangay San Roque. Residents, who take pride in their

barangay's rich heritage and natural beauty, express mixed sentiments about the prospect

of hosting a dog appetite booster mini plant. While some view it as an opportunity for

Waste Management System

The waste disposal system for the business involves implementing a

comprehensive approach to manage waste generated during the production process. This

includes segregating waste into categories such as organic, non-recyclable, recyclable,

and hazardous materials, followed by proper training of employees on waste segregation

techniques. Waste is stored in designated areas within the facility and collected weekly

by a waste management company for transport to San Pablo Landfill. Compliance with

local regulations and documentation of waste disposal activities are ensured, while

continuous improvement efforts focus on reducing waste generation, increasing recycling

rates, and minimizing environmental impact over time.

Quality Control

The quality control system for the dog appetite booster business encompasses

various measures to ensure consistent product quality and safety. It begins with stringent

sourcing and inspection of raw materials, including bananas and chicken feet, to

guarantee freshness and integrity. Throughout the production process, strict adherence to

standardized procedures and hygiene practices is enforced, with regular checks and audits

conducted to monitor compliance. Quality assurance checkpoints are established at key

stages, from ingredient preparation to packaging, with trained personnel responsible for

inspecting product attributes such as texture, aroma, and appearance. Additionally,

Investing in advanced machinery like the grinder from Hanabishi can streamline

production processes, leading to increased output and reduced operational costs. By

incorporating cutting-edge technology and equipment from reputable suppliers like

Carrier for refrigeration units, the business can stay competitive in the market by meeting

consumer demands for quality and innovation.

However, it's important to acknowledge the potential limitations or constraints

associated with technology and equipment utilization. For instance, while modern

equipment like La Germania ovens may offer advanced features and functionalities, they

can also come with a higher upfront cost, which may pose a financial challenge for small-

scale businesses. Additionally, reliance on technology for critical production processes,

such as dehydrating and grinding, may introduce a risk of equipment failure or

malfunction, leading to disruptions in production schedules and potential losses in

revenue. Furthermore, maintaining and servicing complex machinery like refrigeration

units from Carrier requires expertise and close monitoring, which can incur additional

Table 14. Raw Materials

The current trend in accessing raw materials for the dog appetite booster business

aligns with sustainability efforts, especially considering the rural location. This presents

opportunities for sourcing fresh and locally produced ingredients, such as bananas from

San Pablo and chicken feet from poultry farms in Brgy San Nicolas and Brgy. San

Ignacio, contributing to a more sustainable supply chain. Additionally, with the

increasing emphasis on environmentally friendly practices, there's a growing demand for

organic and ethically sourced materials, further driving the need for accessible and

sustainable raw material options. The future availability and access to raw materials

appear good, given the continued support for agricultural development in rural areas and

the potential for

expansion of local farming initiatives. This can lead to greater self-sustaining and

reduced reliance on external suppliers, enhancing the stability of the business's supply

chain.

In terms of quality, the materials and inventory needed for production must meet

standards to ensure the consistency and safety of the dog appetite booster. This includes

selecting high-quality bananas, chicken feet, and packaging materials that are free from

lxvii
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO

AND INNOVATION
contaminants and defects. Maintaining inventory levels is also crucial to prevent

disruptions in production and meet customer demand. Regular monitoring and inspection

of inventory are essential to identify any potential issues or discrepancies and address

them promptly to maintain product quality and availability.

Exploring possible alternatives for raw materials can provide flexibility and

resilience to the supply chain. For instance, if there are fluctuations in the availability or

prices of bananas or chicken feet from local sources, alternative suppliers or substitutes

may be considered. Prices, locations, and quantities of alternative raw materials, such as

bananas from neighboring regions or alternative protein sources for the dog appetite

booster, should be evaluated to determine their feasibility and compatibility with the

business's operations. By sourcing options and considering alternatives, the business can

lower risks associated with supply chain disruptions and fluctuations in raw material

availability or prices, ensuring continuity of production and meeting customer demand.
