Panaderia Planning Documentation, Part 3


This is the final post to present this example document. Another important section of the document deals with the finances required for the project. That is what we will highlight here. The currency is the Peruvian Nuevo Sol. 

Implementation
1.1.The oven……………………………………………………….                   S/ 2,500.00
1.2.Mixers…………………………………………………                              S/ 1,500.00
1.3.A cutter……………………………………………….                              S/ 1,400.00
1.4.Scales / timer…………………………………….                                  S/ 250.00
1.5.Work tables……………………………….                                           S/ 1,200.00
1.6.Basic Utensils…………………………………………                            S/   600.00
1.7.Government registration………………………                                      S/   150.00
1.8.Initial ingredients…………………..                                                     S/ 2.200.00
                                                                                                                      S/ 9,800.00
 
Capacity—initially production is assured at 2,000 loaves of bread per day, then projected as a goal after a year is 5000 / day. The oven has a capacity of 500 per 45 minutes, so there is not an equipment bottle neck with this plan.
Location is not a problem as we have members willing to use parts of their homes to install the ovens and equipment. Space will be rented for sales at a cost of S/ 350.
Salaries are oriented for daily payment and a monthly wage contracted for each member for their time. To assure three people full time at the start will mean a monthly base salary of S/ 500. The rest of the people will have a commission based on their sales. This is customary in the city for sales people.
For an initial volume of production at 5000, at 0.10 per bread, income will be 500 soles/day making a total of 15,000 per month. Variable and fixed expenses will be 370 soles/day for a monthly total of 11,100, leaving a net of 130 soles/day or 3900 nuevos soles monthly. Allowing an additional 25% for variables would yield a monthly net of 2925 soles.
Financing
Local Church……………………………………………..                                    S/ 1, 500.00
External Support……………………………..                                                  S/8,300.00
                                                                                                                S/ 9,800.00
Rate of Exchange with USA dollar is 2.92 soles/dollar
For the external support, there are two possibilities. One is donation, which would allow us to use income to enlarge and improve operations. The second is repayable support, which would slow the process of reaching sustainability.

Other details are included in the plan as well, including timelines for implementation, etc.
These three posts have represented actual planning that has been performed by this missionary team in Otuzco, Peru, directed by Pastor Javier Martinez.
If you would like to provide support for this wonderful work, please write to me at lmeeker@atctraining.com and I will send you the information and directions for the sponsoring church. Your involvement would truly be a blessing to them and greatly appreciated.
Blessings,

Larry

 

Panaderia Planning Documentation, part 2


Today we continue reviewing the actual planning document prepared for this bakery in Peru.  This piece provides important background information essential to the decision to proceed.

II.                Social Economic Assessment – (This is an important element of planning for a BAM project. It gives the planners and potential investors the background of the area in which the business will be established. This is an important element in assessing the potential viability of the proposed business.)

The local church initiating this project is under the direction of Pastor Javier Martinez Rojas, who directs the mission in Otuzco and its two additional missions: El Alizar and Santa Cecilia in the District of Usquil, Province of Otuzco, Peru. He and a team carried out this assessment study about the social economics of the church in the context of the City of Otuzco. Through that study the following results were obtained:
2.1.Population, Otuzco is a city located 65 KM from the city of Trujillo, capital of the Libertad region of Peru, at an altitude of 2640 meters above sea level. The population is approximately 33,000 inhabitants. The majority of the population is young, with more female than male.
2.2.Social reality

This city has a strategic location for tourism, with many visitors both from this nation and foreigners. At the same time it is a key commercial point in this part of the province, already having a concentration of inhabitants from the districts of Uzquil, Huaranchal, Coina and others in order to exchange commercial specialties on Sundays.

The occupations are dedicated basically to commercial and agriculture. 75% of the inhabitants profess to follow the Catholic religion. Issues of religious questions are fluid, permitting consumption of local products.
2.3.Economic reality

The economic level of people here is between the middle and lower levels.  That is why it is necessary to create work opportunities that permit us to help the local homes/families.  
Next time we will provide additional components of the document, continuing to reveal important parts of the plan and process.

Blessings,

development, examples, planning


I will take the elements of this plan slightly out of order. Part 3 of the planning document is actually the section that highlights the purposes for this BAM Project. Let’s start with it.  In terms of the thinking process, this should be one of the first elements to be developed for the project.  (The original document is in Spanish.)

III        Proposal
The proposal is to create a business that generates economic profit that will help different families within the local congregation at the mission in Otuzco, selected by evaluation, with their economic needs. It will serve similarly for the pastor family, in advancing the missionary effort. It will achieve self sustainment of the Mission going forward over time. 
In the same way, the objective of the BAM is to strengthen and expand the Gospel mission of salvation for our brothers in the Andes, to strategic places that the mission of Otuzco proposes to reach in the confines of the province.
We like the purposes:
  • Good work for members of the congregation
Our goal is to be a definite benefit to members of the church, who should be able to achieve an improved lifestyle and give a good testimony as children of God.
  • Sustain and advance the work (the mission)

To begin, based on the budget of the local church, the project needs financial support to get started.  In time the project should be self-sustaining and the bakery process should become more profitable as production is diversified.  

(This proposal section on Purposes is simply stated, and it is very clear.  The project will provide needed employment in a wholesome, Christian business environment.  This meets a real need within the current mission church family.  The profits will fuel the ministry outreach, not just in the community of Otuzco, but to other mission points in the Province.  This church has already extablished two specific mission points and is currently finishing a mission church building in one of the locations.  It is an amazing work.)

Next time we will include additional sections of their planning document.

Blessings,

Larry

 

New BAM Project in Planning - Panaderia

development, examples, planning


We are very excited to learn that one of our dear missionary brothers in South America is in the planning stages for a new BAM project. He has given permission to share with you via this blog the planning documentation that he and his team have prepared. In the next few posts we will print portions of that document, beginning with the purposes they have defined for the project.

This project would involve starting a bakery, known commonly in this part of the world as a panaderia.
Here are a few photos of an actual panaderia that we visited in Mexico earlier this month. These will give you a feel for the actual project.
 
Labor will be required in all aspects of the process, providing needed jobs for church and community people.
 
Space and materials are dedicated to allowing the different versions of bread to rise.  These racks are for French style bread.
 
There is nothing quite like the smell of fresh bread coming out of the oven, by the thousands each day.

The selections from this panaderia in Mexico were incredible.

Next post we will start sharing the details. If you or others in your network of Christian friends find interest in the project and would like to provide support, we will connect you with the sponsoring church here in the United States so that you can contribute. That would be fantastic.
Let me know of your interest by writing me directly at LMeeker@atctraining.com .

Blessings, and check back soon to follow this project as it is being planned.

 

Larry
