The present business idea is about sourcing and processing indigenous chicken from rural families to supply a niche market in cities
Clear! Thanks!
Hi GreenPath team
I found you idea interesting as it links farmers to organic markets. However, because you want to start with a perenial crop (Avocados) I would recommend you to add a high turnover crop to help offset your cashflow before the avocados start producing. I assume that avocados will take at least 3-4 years before producing and you would need cash during those years.
Also, it sounds like your core business is the training centers not the avocados. I would recommend putting more emphasis on avocados than training centers.
Regards
Quisito
