Conducting feasibility studies (technical, financial and market)

technical study

Analysis and selection of the most efficient modern production techniques

A comprehensive review of available national and international technologies for producing the product in question will be conducted, considering criteria such as automation level, energy efficiency, output quality, compatibility with local raw materials, and lifecycle cost. This analysis will lead to the selection of the optimal technological solution that is both cost-effective and operationally sustainable.

**A thorough extraction and analysis of all standard requirements that the product, production process, equipment, and workspace must meet. This includes health standards such as (GMP, HACCP), safety standards such as (OHSAS), and product quality standards such as (ISIRI), to prevent any future problems.**

Estimating the optimal production capacity of the production line and planning for future expansion

Production capacity is calculated based on market analysis and economies of scale to meet market needs while avoiding underutilization of existing potential. A structured program for phased future capacity development is also provided, aligned with projected demand growth.

Supply chain analysis and evaluation of key suppliers

Review and map all stages of the supply chain, from raw material suppliers to final distributors. These services include assessing the risk and reliability of key suppliers, reviewing contract terms, and identifying potential bottlenecks in the supply of raw materials and spare parts.

Initial assessment of the project site in terms of access to infrastructure

The proposed project site is studied in terms of the availability of essential infrastructure, including electricity, water, gas, and sewage networks, access to main roads, proximity to target markets, and sources of manpower. This assessment ensures that the chosen site will cause the fewest possible costs and problems during operation.

Financial study

Accurate estimation of total required fixed capital and initial working capital
Calculation of all pre-operational costs, including land costs, construction, landscaping, facilities, machinery and equipment, engineering and supervision costs, as well as an estimate of the working capital required to cover operating costs until the break-even point is reached.
Complete forecasting of operating and ongoing costs
Preparing a complete list of all ongoing costs of the production unit after launch, including the cost of raw materials and packaging, salaries and wages, costs of water, electricity, gas and other energy carriers, repair and maintenance costs, marketing and sales costs, administrative and general expenses.
Preparing financial statement forecasts (profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow)
Prepare projected financial statements for a typical 5- to 10-year period. These statements provide a clear picture of the project's future profitability, asset and liability position, and cash flow, and are the primary basis for decision-making by investors and creditors.
Calculating financial key indicators
Calculation and analysis of quantitative indicators that allow for comparison and economic evaluation of the project. These indicators include Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Payback Period (PBP), and Benefit-Cost Ratio (B/C Ratio).
Conduct sensitivity analysis on key financial variables:
Investigating and quantifying the impact of changes in key and uncertain variables (such as product sales price, sales volume, raw material prices, exchange rates) on the project's financial indicators. This analysis helps identify the riskiest factors and plan for their management.

Market study

Analyze the size, growth rate, and potential of the target market
Estimating the current market size (in terms of rial value and physical volume), identifying its annual growth rate in the past, and predicting its future trend. This analysis helps to understand the overall market potential and the share achievable for the new business.
Accurate identification and segmentation of end customers
Dividing a heterogeneous market into smaller homogeneous groups based on demographic (age, gender, income), geographic, and psychographic (lifestyle, values) criteria. This allows for more effective targeting and the design of marketing and product strategies tailored to the needs of each segment.
Comprehensive competitor analysis (products, strategies, strengths and weaknesses)
Identifying direct and indirect competitors, analyzing their products and services, pricing, distribution, and advertising strategies, and evaluating the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of each of them (SWOT competitive analysis). The output of this analysis is determining the optimal competitive position for the new product.
Analysis of distribution channels and value chain structure
Investigating possible ways to get the product to the end customer, taking into account the specific characteristics of the product. This analysis includes evaluating direct channels (such as a direct sales team to contract with organizations, a dedicated telephone and online ordering system) and indirect channels (such as using reputable food supply contractors). The costs associated with each channel (including hot transport logistics, special packaging and manpower), the speed and quality of delivery, and their geographical coverage are examined to select the most optimal and reliable channel(s) to maintain food quality and customer satisfaction.
Forecasting future demand using quantitative and qualitative methods
Using advanced statistical techniques (such as regression analysis, time series) and qualitative methods (such as expert surveys and field studies) to predict the actual demand for the product over a given time period. This forecast is the basis for determining production capacity and sales planning.

final output

Deliver a comprehensive “Final Feasibility Study Report” that includes a management summary, methodology, detailed findings, risk analysis, conclusion and final recommendations. This report is well suited for presentation to investors, banks and decision-making bodies.
