Abstract
The guide is designed to help users optimize local diets for improved nutrition for women and children. The BMCT is a tool used to analyze the economic feasibility and commercial viability of local production of enriched flour-based blends (EFBs). The manual provides an overview of the BMCT process, its principles, and how to use the spreadsheet to develop a business model and calculate profit and loss statements. It also includes steps to review and adjust the business model by changing sales prices, input costs, and potential sales volumes.
