What you need to consinder to set up a flour mill plant?
The cost of setting up a flour mill plant vary based on a wide range of factors, for instances the type of machinery and equipment to bought, nature of the machinery to be installed either automatic or manual, site it is to be located, availability and cost of raw material and many more factors, hence, there is no definite quotation in terms of cost value that should be designated for setting up such a project, however, approximation can be done after assessing and taking into account all the necessities required for the cause.
Machinery and equipment cost
The price value of the milling machinery is measured by the type of machines and its pertinent appliances; this also integrates their qualities in terms of performance, durability and maintenance. Basically, high quality machinery with high production capacities and efficiency are costly.
Cost of labor
When establishing a flour mill plant, both skilled and unskilled personnel are needed, more financial input will go for the skilled labor due to their expertise levels whereas less finances will be given to the unskilled. It is therefore important to take note of the number and type of labor to incorporate in the project.
Availability and cost of raw materials
The availability and the cost of raw materials should be taken into account; the facility should be set up in a location endowed with rich dimension of raw materials for instance maize, millet, wheat, sorghum and many others. The costs of these raw materials may also vary depending on the demand, availability in terms of quality, type and quality of the raw materials. Purchasing or harvesting the raw materials from other regions and transporting them to the milling site will be very costly. Other commodities that may make the cost of setting up a flour mill plant high include.
Cost of land
Land appreciates in value thus, its price must also hike, price variation is also exhibited when transacting on land, for instance, land in urban or more developed settings tend to have higher price values than those in countryside.
Conclusively, setting up a flour mill plant requires surplus fiscal resources to cater for all planned and other miscellaneous activities that may come as part of the project. Generally, it is a cost demanding activity.
