Abstract
THE RAW MATERIALS SELECTED WERE THOSE AVAILABLE IN GEORGIA, U.S.A., AND NEIGHBORING STATES. CANNED DRIED BEANS, SNAP BEANS, PEACHES, AND TOMATOES WERE USED. THE REPORT INCLUDES A GENERAL PROCESS CHART FOR EACH ITEM, A PLANT LAYOUT, MARKET POTENTIALS, PRODUCTION REQUIREMENTS, PERSONNEL REQUIREMENTS, CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS, ANNUAL COSTS AND SALES REVENUE, CASH FLOW PROJECTIONS, AND COMMENTS ON CASH FLOW. FROM THIS PROFILE, A DETAILED FEASIBILITY STUDY CAN BE DEVELOPED FOR A PROPOSED OPERATION IN A SPECIFIC LOCATION AND MARKET. THE REPORT IS IN FOUR GENERAL SECTIONS: DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCTS, PLANT, AND OPERATION; MARKETING; TECHNICAL INFORMATION; AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION. SINCE THE DATA APPLY TO PREVAILING CONDITIONS IN GEORGIA. U.S.A., THE PROFILE CANNOT BE DIRECTLY APPLIED TO MOST LDCS WITHOUT REVISION, AND IT SHOULD BE USED ONLY AS A GUIDE TO THE BASIC PRINCIPLES INVOLVED.
