A major constraint faced by agro-processors in the establishment of their businesses is the access to affordable funding for the purchase of equipment and supplies. After a needs assessment and numerous discussions with the Invest Dominica Authority and the Dominica manufactures’ Association, a priority list was developed for the supply of equipment to the DMA for the benefit of its agro-processors. A consultant was recruited to clarify the process flow used in manufacturing each of the products identified; determine the batch quantities processed per run; match the batch quantities with the process and ancillary equipment required to successfully produce quantities required, and determine the technical specifications for these pieces of equipment to meet the required international standards.
