A yogurt processing business plan can be used to raise capital for a manufacturing facility where yogurt is produced or to raise up a modest bank loan or line of credit for a processing center that works on behalf of a larger yogurt maker, e.g., an additives maker, a refrigeration company, etc. It can't hurt to start with an explanation of the yogurt processing operation itself, as well as a description of your role in the chain. The business plan doesn't need an intensive operational plan, but you should be able to show where you fit into the farm-to-consumer chain of production. The document also needs to give details about your market:
• Who are the buyers for your product (end users)?
• What do your current contracts look like?
• How would you define the market need?
• What is the industry you are in and what growth or contraction is forecast?
• Who are the primary competitors in this space?
The business plan for a yogurt processing company also needs to have a complete financial pro forma. This should be a 3-5 year model that demonstrates how you will spend your initial funding and the sort of sales growth that can help you achieve. The break-even point you anticipate should be outlined clearly, along with the assumptions that underlie the current model. Also show the profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and the first year of your processing operation in a month by month breakdown.
