Jackfruit Processing Plant

we are able to manufacture an jackfruit processing plant in Punalur, Kerala, India. Jackfruit is sweet in taste and also contains Vitamin A. Like any other fruit, it is perishable in nature. It is grown in limited parts of India and hence its popularity is limited to the growing regions only. It is heavy and bulky fruit and hence transportation is not very easy and is costly as well. In Kerala, the production of Jackfruit has increased multifold during the past few years. However, ventures on value added products from Jackfruit have not gathered sufficient momentum. Only few units are engaged in unorganized sector manufacturing jack chips and jackfruit preserves. Identifying the opportunities existing in this sector KAIC is setting up a jackfruit processing plant at Mala, Thrissur under the assistance from Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana. Plant is setting up at our own land at Mala. Main production area would occupy around 7000 sq. ft. and office area around 2000 sq. ft. Technology for the production and canning shall be obtained from CFTRI, KAU, NIIST, DFRL etc. The products envisaged in the project are Canned jackfruit, Jackfruit nectar,Jack halwa ,Jack chip, Value added products from jack fruit seed, Jack fruit pericarp, Sweet jackfruit papad, Jackfruit Cake,Jackfruit Sweet Bar, Mango RTS, Pineapple RTS, etc. An effective supply chain mechanism will be established for the prompt availability of the products.
