Since, everyone thinks that we should start the work on marketing and finance please put all the relevant information on this thread. By relevant I mean, cost of production, plant setup and machinery, as well as final product and related details. Also, since we are having this unending debate on what the product should be, I suggest the plant setup team come up with a
3-4 stages up gradation plan, from the smallest possible plant(e.g. just creating pellets) to the biggest(what we are aiming in the long run probably, diverse finished products and fuel). This will
facilitate us in planning the financing of the business over the years.
All of us have collected enough material for marketing bioplastics. We have enough eye-catching statistics which we can use but, all is there in the numerous threads that we have created. It will be great if we can create this thread putting in just the final ideas and picking the best material from what we already have so everyone just look into your own posts and hand pick the best of all and put it in this thread.
This thread is for final drafting and so please no discussion on this thread. I request no spamming this thread, this is where we keep everything in place so that the Marketing and Finance team can start making the presentation. Any discussion relating to the material can be done through chat or in person.
Please let me know any doubts or suggestion regarding this thread, through email or chat in person and not on this thread.
