IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) Food•IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) equipment is used to rapidly freeze individual pieces of fish before packaging.
•This process helps to preserve taste, texture and nutritional value in food. •The reasons for availability of effective demand
i) hygienically processed and packaged ii) properly retention of quality parameters
in the packaged product iii) recent advancement of technology in this field.

SWOT analysis
StrengthsHigh-quality product offerings that exceed competitor’s
offerings of price, quality, and service. Improved product quality will be ensured with the
sophisticated machinery, skilled manpower and monitoring production and quality control aspects
The fish commodity will be produced through contract growing system while the quality of the produces will be ensured as well as production cost will be reduced as a result more commission can be provided to the retailer.
Promotional activities will be performed to a great extent
WeaknessesCountry image
OpportunitiesCheap and availability of raw material and labourDue to maintenance of proper quality, the
products will gain popularity.To sale at lower prices due to enjoying facility of
incentives from Government of Bangladesh. Government has liberalized the industrial and investment policies in recent years.
Tax Exemptions : Generally 5 to 7 years. Duty : No import duty for export oriented industry.
The ability to develop long-term commercial contracts which should lower costs associated with production. Hence, retailers’ demand will be increased due to provision of higher commission
ThreatsWell established brand name of the othersNatural calamities for crops during production
Conclusion and RecommendationConclusion and RecommendationFrom the market analysis, it was found that there is huge
demand gap in the foreign market and hence, the whole products may easily be consumed.
A frozen fish line does not require very heavy investment. Except for an IQF tunnel freezer, all other equipments can be made locally.
With some modification, the same production line can also be used to make fresh-cut produce, quick frozen vegt5ables, frozen fruits, cooked/semi cooked hamburger, patties or chicken nuggets.
Local market is developing rapidly and demand for processed food is increasing due to growing per capita income, and increasing number of two-income families.
The pre-feasibility study indicates that the project is technically feasible, financially profitable, economically desirable and rewarding from a marketing aspect.
Consequently, prospective and potential entrepreneurs may come forward to invest in this potential industry. The project is financially desirable, therefore may be considered suitable for bank financing
