Estudio de prefactibilidad para la producción artesanal de chocolates

The Chocolate is one of the delicacies of the world, specially in European countries, and its demand is based on the special and characteristic flavor as it occurs in the home made chocolate. The secret of its flavor depends in that each home made chocolate of this project contains 66% of cocoa and 34 % of sugar, which makes its unique aroma and flavor. In Ecuador this type of home made chocolate is poorly know. This project is directed to develop a product of excellent quality for the delight of the client. A National marketing study was made in which it was determined that an opportunity of growth of this product in the market exists. The feasibility study demonstrates that this project is viable technical and economically since it will allow to obtain considerable financial yields, reflected in the Net Present Value ($13.959) of 4 years, an Internal Rate of Return (79%) and the analysis of Cost- Benefit ($2,68). All of this demonstrates a high yield in this project and a good perspective of investment.
