Those who seek to organize their own business, not without reason, prefer to start it in the food market. Opening your own small profitable business for the production and processing of meat products does not require significant investments, and in terms of product quality, such a meat workshop can compete with large manufacturers.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a suitable location for your workshop. According to sanitary rules, meat production should not be located in residential premises, in former kindergartens, rest homes. Consult a specialist working in the meat industry, who will help you choose a room, taking into account the specifics of the production.
Step 2
Provide in the selected room the places where the raw materials will be stored, defrosting and preparing for processing. The workshop must have a production room for the preparation of minced meat, a thermal department, a warehouse, a sink for recycled containers. Equip the household department with a bathroom, a changing room, showers, a place for storing overalls.
Step 3
If you prefer a quick start to your business, opt for a monoblock, which is a kind of mini-workshop in a small container. Such a meat shop has already been designed taking into account the requirements of the sanitary and epidemiological services. Rent a plot of land, bring the necessary communications to the monoblock. This solution is most suitable for rural areas.
Step 4
Purchase or rent equipment for a butcher shop. Refrigerating chamber with an optimal volume of 6 cu. m should be calculated for a week's supply of raw materials. You will also need containers for storing and processing meat products, tools for processing meat and other equipment, including cutting tables.
Step 5
Hire full-time staff: a technologist, a butcher for cutting carcasses and deboning meat, an accountant, a freight forwarder, ancillary workers. The composition of employees may be different and is determined taking into account the scale of production. Consider overlapping work functions where possible.
Step 6
Sign contracts for the supply of raw materials. For a small meat production, it is more profitable to deal with small individual or farms. Also, provide for a mandatory inspection of the purchased products by a sanitary doctor or a veterinary and sanitary laboratory on the market. Your butcher shop can now begin work.
