Business production of handmade dumplings. Dumpling business at home. Project Implementation Planning

At the present time, many are visited by ideas about opening own business. There are quite a few options. The main thing is that the work is profitable. One of the many types of private business is the production of dumplings at home.

The production of dumplings is one of the most modern home-based businesses. It is especially popular in small towns, even taking into account the fact that the market is filled with such goods. The popularity of semi-finished products also lies in a large assortment, for example, manti, dumplings, khinkali, etc. Almost everyone loves and consumes such products, since their main advantage is quick preparation.

Advantages of dumpling business:

• The desire to buy dumplings is absolutely independent of the season.
• A business pays off pretty quickly with the right organization and management.
• Relatively low amount of labor-intensive capital.
• Significant savings due to the lack of the need to rent a room, hire staff at the initial stages.

All the necessary equipment (meat grinder, freezer, etc.) can be found in any kitchen. The cooking technology is very simple and familiar to every housewife, and sometimes even the owner.

A big disadvantage of business is high competitiveness. But if the products are made from environmentally friendly and high-quality products, then they will clearly be in the lead.

Required documents

The first parties often disperse among friends and acquaintances. They act as the most important tasters. But in this way big money you won't earn. You need to look for places of sale, and for this you need a package of mandatory documents:

• Documentation of Rospotrebnadzor and Sanitary Epidemiological Station.
• Hygienic conclusion of SES.
• Recipe.

When expanding - building your own workshop - you will need to be registered with tax service and register your activity. You can check out or.

In this case, the conclusion of the fire service will be required. You will also need:

• Specifications that are registered and agreed (TU).
• Label layout.
• Technical instruction (TI).

If staff is hired, they must have a health book.

The production of dumplings at home and their sale only to private individuals does not require the execution of various documents.

What equipment is required

For the manufacture of dumplings in small batches at home, the most common equipment can be used. To make your job easier, you should buy electric knife, flour sifter, electric meat grinder.

For work in the workshop, equipment is used on a larger scale:

• Mixer.
• Apparatus for rolling raw materials.
• Apparatus for kneading minced meat.
• Machine for the formation of dumplings.

In whatever conditions products are manufactured, there must be freezers for storing goods and raw materials.

You can save on equipment if you hire workers, but it is better to involve relatives in the business. In addition, the product will be much better if it is made by hand. It is in great demand.

If necessary or desired, you can get a packaging machine. Keep in mind that people trust products in transparent packages more because they can see their contents.

Required Ingredients

Dumplings are good because they do not require so many ingredients to cook. Everything is very simple:

• Water.
• Flour.
• Salt.
• Eggs.
• Seasonings.
• Meat (beef, pork, chicken).

In order to make your product more attractive to customers, you can experiment with stuffing. To mix different types meat, as well as use a variety of seasonings and spices.

The purchase of ingredients can be made in supermarkets, shops or markets.

In order for dumplings to be in demand, raw materials must be of high quality and environmentally friendly. Therefore, you should not use various prunings and herbal supplements. It is advisable to buy meat in supermarkets on the day of its delivery. Alternatively, you can conclude a contract for the purchase of meat with a livestock farm. In this case, the goods will always be fresh and in the quantity that is needed.

When purchasing raw materials not in specialized stores, it is imperative to ask the supplier for quality certificates.

Detailed visual information about the work of the dumpling shop is given in the following video:

Sales of products

Sales is the first thing to think about before starting production. As for dumplings, there are a lot of them on the market, so you should carefully study the scope of their implementation.

• The first small batches can be sold to friends and comrades. In the event that the goods are collected positive reviews, you can continue manufacturing, as a tasty and high-quality product will be in demand.
• You can try to sell goods to small cafes, and if they are satisfied, establish continuous deliveries with them.
• It is also necessary to take into account large wholesale companies that supply semi-finished products and have a permanent customer base. In this case, packaging will be required.
• A good option is to rent a trading tray in the market. Rumors about good products are quickly spread through word of mouth, which allows you to not spend money on advertising.
• Another way to sell is to sell finished products. For example, delivery of hot meals. Due to the rich assortment, such sales will be quite profitable.

When considering the sale of manufactured goods, one must not forget about vehicle. If you have a car, it will solve many problems.

Business Costs and Profitability

In order for the dumpling business to be profitable, it is necessary to draw up a business plan and calculate profitability before starting production.

Calculating the profitability, you can see the approximate amount. Here, for example, the calculation of raw materials for 800 kg of finished products:

• Meat - 53 thousand rubles.
• Bulb onion - 900 rubles.
• Flour - 1.5 thousand rubles.
• Salt and seasonings - 600 rubles.
• Eggs - 100 rubles.

It follows that 56,100 rubles were spent on 800 kg of products. It turns out that the cost of 1 kg of finished goods is approximately 70 rubles, when its market value is approximately 92 rubles. Net profit will be 22 rubles. In 24 working days, the profit will increase to the amount about 442 thousand rubles. From this amount, you will need to deduct current expenses.

The calculation was carried out taking into account the operation of equipment for molding dumplings, the cost of which will be about 555 thousand rubles.

The costs will be much less if you start manufacturing in small batches in your kitchen. When the product wins the market and is in demand, you can expand production, rent premises, purchase equipment and hire staff.

In order to reduce the cost of production, you can resort to such tricks:

• Add some potatoes to the meat, potato-meat dumplings will come out. The cost will remain the same, and the taste will be wonderful.
• Add a little water to the minced meat, the taste will not deteriorate from this, but on the contrary, the product will turn out with a juicy filling.

• Tell everyone you know about your business.
• Place ads in free newspapers.
• Post ads.
• Submit information online.

Dumpling making is a profitable and low cost business that anyone can start. The main thing is to determine the sales market and properly organize the work.

Pelmeni is a very affordable, quick and tasty product for lunch or dinner. Hence the constant demand, which does not depend on the season and social status, dumplings eat everything. There is a lot of important disadvantage that dumplings that are produced on factory equipment have. Often, such companies add too much soy to minced meat, which alienates consumers from the classic taste of minced meat. In this regard, the dumpling business at home can seriously compete with manufacturers who supply their "soy" dumplings to the shelves of city stores. After all, the taste of homemade dumplings is something that has been familiar to us since childhood and is radically different from store-bought options.

Advantages and disadvantages of opening the production of dumplings

In the table below, we will consider the advantages and disadvantages of opening a dumpling shop that makes dumplings. It can be noted that the main the target audience- people who want to eat hearty and at the same time inexpensively.

Business for the production of dumplings: documents for registration with the tax

To register with the tax dumpling shop, an individual entrepreneur or LLC is created. The table below summarizes the main benefits. In addition, consider required list documents for registration of each legal form of ownership. When registering, select the OKVED code:

• 10.13.4 - production of semi-finished meat products,
• 10.73.1 - production of semi-finished products, dumplings, etc. boiled and uncooked, with or without stuffing.

By law, the authorized capital of an LLC cannot be less than 10,000 rubles!

The most optimal organizational form of a dumplings production workshop may be the usual individual entrepreneurship(IP). The most favorable tax regime for the enterprise will be the simplified taxation system (STS), 6% of the revenue or 15% of the profit of the enterprise.

Own workshop: SES requirements

For the first time after opening a business, your first room can be built in a personal home kitchen, which already has everything the right equipment. But it should be borne in mind that for sculpting dumplings, even in your own kitchen, you must have: a large number of sockets or extension cord, a spacious and comfortable table, a sink with a constant supply of water, a good lighting fixture and, of course, a large freezer for storing finished products. If you are going to rent such a room, possible success in this field can turn it into a full-fledged dumplings production workshop.

In the future, if you leave the home kitchen and rent premises, it should correspond sanitary requirements Rospotrebnadzor(SES). In addition to the SES, you must obtain an opinion on the premises for the workshop in State Fire Supervision. To do this, it is necessary to install a fire alarm, and fire extinguishing equipment (fire extinguishers).

Below is a list for obtaining the main permission of Rospotrebnadzor, after which you can start production.

To organize this workshop indoors or at home, you will need a specific list of devices that are necessary to engage in this type of activity. We are not talking about new equipment, used household appliances are quite suitable:

• Refrigerator with sub-zero temperature function. Such a chamber will fit about 100-1500 kg of finished products, its dimensions may well fit in the kitchen or balcony. Issue price - 7000-12000 rubles;
• Manual or automatic meat grinder for filling preparation. The price of this device ranges from 2000 to 7000 rubles. The approximate productivity of an automatic meat grinder is 1.5 kg of meat per minute, and a convenient loading tray and increased power can increase production time quite significantly;
• A device for sculpting dumplings - dumplings. It can be mechanical or automatic. An ordinary mechanical dumpling machine costs about 1000 rubles and has a capacity of 10-12 kg per hour. An automatic dumpling maker will cost you 7,000 rubles, but it will speed up the process of making dumplings at times, as it has many additional and very convenient functions: dumpling molds, dough rolling, noodle and ravioli production, measuring spoon.

In addition to the above devices, you can additionally buy: Flour sifter (about 15,000 rubles), rolling dough (about 30,000 rubles).

Where to start production?

To get started, you will need a great recipe, preferably with an exclusive handwriting, so that your dumplings stand out from the crowd of your competitors. But should you take into account the preferences of your future customers, for example, sculpt dumplings from beef or pork? Or maybe mixed minced meat or chicken? Or even cook dumplings with an unconventional filling of vegetables or fruits? The answers to these questions can generate good demand, which will provide you with a large turnover and an influx of profit.

Next, having decided on the desired filling, we proceed directly to the process of sculpting dumplings. In dumplings there are several options for molding for future products. So, in addition to the delicious filling, you can choose an interesting shape that can also play into your hands. In automatic dumplings there is a dough rolling mode from 0.2 to 3 mm thick. This can seriously affect the taste, and it is better to strictly determine the future thickness of your dough. Next, the resulting dough is placed in the chute of the pelmeni, the required amount of minced meat is applied, and all this turns into a finished pelmeni product.

You can reduce the cost of produced dumplings by adding potatoes to the meat. Meat and potato dumplings taste no worse than pure meat dumplings, but the cost is the same.

To reduce the cost of dumplings, without loss of quality, you can increase the percentage of water in the dough and minced meat. Technologically, it is possible to bring the percentage of water content in minced meat up to 20%, while the taste of dumplings only gets better.

Market for your products

Most often, the first batch of finished products is distributed among close friends, acquaintances and neighbors. But these are only initial reviews, and, as a rule, you can’t do business at home, you need to look for the main places for selling such products - public catering and a convenience store. In order to introduce your products to these places, you will need a number of documents for trading. In fact, these are 2 declarations of conformity, but in order to receive them, you will need to register the technical production specification, which includes the following documents:

• lease contract;
• product recipe;
• label.

The development and registration of technical specifications will take you 10 working days, and the receipt of a declaration of conformity will take about several weeks. Paperwork may seem difficult, but it's worth it. In order to ensure the success of your company, it is best to test the first batch in some cafe or among friends. If the party receives good reviews and gets approval, then it is not worth delaying with the documents. After all, an honest entrepreneur is a trusted supplier.

Everything is possible: how an IT recruiter, disillusioned with life in the capital, launched a dumpling production in Bryansk

The biography of Ella Vetlugina is rich in sharp turns. Here she is making progress at school - olympiads, music, gymnastics - and suddenly she puts off her studies at the university and goes to work as a laboratory assistant at the Department of Social Physiology of ChelGU. So she enters the faculty of journalism - and a year later she is transferred to "anti-crisis management". Quits journalism and becomes a recruiter in the IT field. Receives the position of director of HR in international company- and goes nowhere in three months, because it's boring. Finally, after the capital, offices, IT and HR - unexpectedly Bryansk, a dumpling shop, its own business. What will happen next?

30 years old, company owner. Born in Chelyabinsk, studied at SUSU (journalism, anti-crisis management). After moving to Moscow, she worked in IT recruiting. In 2015, she moved to Bryansk, where she opened the production of dumplings in September hand-sculpted. Since September 2016 lives in St. Petersburg. Raising a daughter.

Here, a new twist

“As a child, I didn’t want to do business,” says Ella, “although my dad was a classic entrepreneur of the 90s, a strong “buy and sell”. Alas, that experience does not work well in the current realities - recently my father closed his butcher shop in Chelyabinsk, unable to withstand competition with networks. In high school, I also resold some cosmetics, lingerie, but it was difficult to call it a business, I just earned pocket money. I also washed cars.

Ella was going to be a journalist. From the 11th grade, she trained in the Chelyabinsk press. By the second year of journalism, she realized that she was not taught anything new at the faculty, and, continuing to work in the media, she transferred to “crisis management”. Education here was carried out in absentia, so the young student got into the company of age-related, as it seemed to her then, classmates - mostly entrepreneurs and top managers. In a strange and alien environment, Ella was lost. The first foray into the entrepreneurial path ended in blues.

“I wanted to study management, and we were being taught basic economics,” Ella explains. - I wanted to write investigations, but I was offered PR. When they didn’t take a text from me about arms trafficking in the Chelyabinsk region, I just got on a train and left for Moscow. I had a laptop, a cat, an air rifle given to me by my dad, and 1,500 rubles. Over time, this set has changed - now I still have a daughter and a car, and the rifle was stolen.

In the capital, Ella had no luck with journalism - the vacancies came across one sadder than the other, everything ended with a proposal to write horoscopes

“I then arranged a ritual farewell to journalism,” our heroine recalls, “I asked to delete all my texts on the network, burned newspapers with publications. Now, as a specialist in HR, I understand that I went in the wrong place, but there was no one to prompt me.

From journalists, Ella went to secretaries, from there to legal assistants. Most of her friends worked in the IT field, as it happened from Chelyabinsk. She even got a few jobs in big company looking for programmers. “At some point, the company called, invited to take the money. I don't understand what money? They say you get a recruiting commission. I was then given an amount in the amount of four salaries of the secretary. I thought - and switched to the search for employees for IT companies.

In a few years, Ella has gone from a freelance recruiter to an HR director in an international company. Despite the fact that the sphere seemed interesting to the girl, from time to time she wanted to do something of her own, different, useful. So, while working in a system integrator, Ella suggested that the management open a corporate university - to earn money by training narrow IT specialists not only for her company, but also for the external market. The management “blurred” the idea, then the 26-year-old Ella in her hearts went to HR directors. And three months later she gave up everything and left for Bryansk.

From Moscow - to Bryansk

Ella was brought to Bryansk for personal reasons, she did not know anything specific about the city or the region. But even at the entrance I decided that I would open my own business here.

“I wanted to do something absolutely useful. Not recruitment agency, not a website, not trainings. And something that a person really needs - I thought about sewing, and about furniture. It turned out that the Bryansk region has good ecology, tasty products, and, moreover, cheap labor. The city is not that poor, but there is simply little money in it, and prices and wages are low.

I've been thinking about growing mushrooms. Firstly, it's simple - and I did not understand anything in agronomy. Secondly, they are in very high demand. But champignons are ammonia, work in gas masks. Production will have to be moved out of the city, which means going out of town, driving people there. It's long and expensive."

“And so I was sitting, as usual, sculpting myself dumplings from delicious Bryansk meat, and suddenly I began to calculate the cost of minced meat and dough. Here, I think, is what you need!

According to the entrepreneur, the market for hand-made dumplings in the capital cities is completely empty. Such products can only be found in markets and restaurants. Grocery chains sell machine-made semi-finished products, and this is a radically different product.

Lyrical digression No. 1:
the difference between store-bought and handmade dumplings

“The difference between hand-made and automatic dumplings is very big. This does not mean that all dumplings in the store are made from poor raw materials. There is good brands, in which there is really real meat, there are no veins and cartilage - as far as this is generally possible with mass production. Real eggs are put into the dough, and even gray flour does not flash here and there. But with all this, the modeling remains automatic.

And in order for the dumpling to come out as a dumpling, and not as a cutlet in the dough, the minced meat must be liquid - then there will be broth inside. With machine modeling, this will not work, dumplings with liquid minced meat simply do not stick together - 90% of marriage will come out. There is no such machine that would replace hands.

Yes, the thickness of the dough on the typewriter can be set to any, but it will not be the same as rolled by hand - homogeneous, without lumps, holes. We tested the dough sheeter for several days - and abandoned it. Suitable for a mass product, not for a premium product.

50% of the quality characteristics of dumplings depend on the dough. People usually ask: what kind of meat is there? And at least one would think: what kind of dough is there? Because if the dough is gray, then the flour is rotten, sour. The dough should be slightly yellowish, this indicates the presence of an egg in it.

But especially the reputation of dumplings is spoiled by the cheap segment of store products. There - "horns and hooves": offal, veins, soy protein, egg powder, melange, the year before last flour, preservatives. These dumplings can be stored for years. But they do have a hefty cost.

If classic dumplings cost less than 300 rubles per kilogram, I have doubts about their naturalness. This is the minimum cost that related industries can afford in their stores. As a rule, at butcher shops there are tolerable dumplings at a fairly low price. This is a small-town production: so that the meat does not disappear, they grind it, stick dumplings - and freeze it. And in chain stores, I have never seen hand-sculpting at all. ”

Through Bryansk - to Moscow

The pure raw material cost, according to initial calculations, was about 110 rubles per kilo of classic dumplings, the real one was one and a half times more. “And so I sculpt and think: if this product is thrown onto the Moscow market, it will surely be in demand among wealthy residents of the capital. Despite the fact that the price will be quite human.”

Ella did not think about any home delivery at that time. She was going to sell dumplings in bulk - to shops, preferably large ones. It was planned to stand out in the market precisely due to hand molding. The main message: we make a high quality product.

“I turned to business friends who were close to grocery chains and asked them to put me in touch with stores that were ready to buy such goods,” says Ella. - In one network agreed to try. I quickly opened an LLC, and while we were waiting for a contract, I launched production. The strategy was as follows: we go to the Bryansk stores of this chain, increase turnover, make capital and go to Kaluga, then follow the same pattern. But the network started having problems, the contract was first postponed, and then they forgot about it.

“If I started all over again, I would still start this story. The question is what I was up to is not at all what happened. ”

Home delivery appeared in the range of services out of desperation. Ella has already rented a workshop, bought freezers, stainless steel tables, knives, rolling pins, and an electric meat grinder. Bryansk prices for labor, raw materials and rent made it possible to start at 100 thousand rubles. On average, renting a workshop costs an entrepreneur about 10 times cheaper than in the Moscow region.

Ella was waiting for a contract from the store - and did not look for other buyers, focusing on production. The owner of the business made the first 70 kg of dumplings with her own hands, testing the raw materials and testing the technology.

“I looked at what kind of flour, what kind of meat is better. I calculated how much raw material is needed per kilogram, how much can be stuck on in an hour, etc. I mixed a bunch of dough, tried different eggs, different ratios. It just seems - sculpt and sculpt. But if you are making a premium product, get ready to take into account a lot of nuances.

For example, I tried for a long time to make the dough stronger - then we could make it thinner. Thick dough in store dumplings is made not because they spare meat, but so that the dumpling does not fall apart during cooking. We eventually figured out how to make a tight dough, and in our dumplings it is thin. True, due to this, the time for rolling out has doubled, and this is money. ”

The second person in the team was an administrator with a wide range of responsibilities - from organizing the supply of flour and meat to recruiting employees. Next, Ella took on board two sculptors. At the peak of the season - in the winter of 2015-2016, there were six of them, and the total number of employees in the company was nine.

Over the years, the state has repeatedly narrowed and expanded. Today, the company employs two sculptors, one of which is a chef. The post of administrator has been abolished. Drivers-couriers, an accountant, website technical support are outsourced. Ella herself manages production remotely - in September she moved to St. Petersburg to establish sales here.

However, we are somewhat ahead of the curve.

Home delivery

“We were sitting, waiting for the contract. I had some business in Moscow, and I wrote on Facebook that I launched a startup, I make dumplings, I can bring it. The people responded - as a result, I brought a whole car of goods to Moscow. Word of mouth began to work, orders went from friends of friends. I thought: while we are waiting for wholesale, we can earn money on this. Made an order form on Google, Facebook group", - the entrepreneur recalls.

The company's website appeared only in November 2016. Before that, the form was enough, but online payments could not be attached to it, and the assortment had grown so much that it needed to be shown in all its glory.

“Online payment is our insurance. Before it was not yet, customers paid for small orders in cash to the courier. Each time it was a risk - if the buyer refuses, dumplings can be thrown away - the freezer bag has a certain working time. This, by the way, happened - and it's good that the next client simply took more. Right now we are working on a pre-paid basis only.

When it became clear that there would be no promised contract with the store, Ella tried to break into other networks. Economy format stores disappeared immediately. But even those that position themselves as premium asked for an astronomical discount: “I already offered them a product for almost no profit, just to get on the counter. But it didn't work out. In the end, I decided not to waste time shopping anymore. Since then, home delivery has become the main principle of distribution.”

Delivery time to Moscow is from three to eight days, a car goes to St. Petersburg once a month.

Assortment as a marketing tool

Initially, the company relied on only "classic" dumplings with minced pork and beef. But when it became clear that there would be no stores, and you would have to work immediately with end user it seemed logical to give him a choice. The second in the assortment were dumplings "Men's".

“My man offered to sculpt them,” recalls Ella, “he said:“ Make big dumplings so that the man eats - and he was good. This is the same classic, only three times larger. And then the buyers turned on, began to offer: I want it with cottage cheese, I want it with fish. I introduced Dagestan kurze, a rare product for our regions. There is another molding, pure lamb, whey, its own complex of spices. The calculation was also that Muslims would respond to the kurze. Well, let's go. Dumplings, manti, cutlets, rolls, kupaty, dolma, stuffed vegetables, fish dumplings, berry dumplings, with squid, cuttlefish ink, etc.”

“Specially for fasting people, we came up with vegetable dumplings. Unfortunately, they boiled soft - after all, the dough there without an egg. The problem was solved thanks to a vegan client who was experienced in these matters and gave us the secret ingredient.”

Today, the assortment of "Pelmeshki" includes 94 products, of which 56 types are actually dumplings. All products are made in the same workshop by the same craftswomen.

During the year, only one item was withdrawn from sale - dumplings with cheese and olives. Nobody ordered them. For other exotic species, there is a buyer from time to time. The next contenders for departure are pink dumplings for children: a decoction of beets, which is added to the dough, is boiled down.

“I don’t focus on my taste at all. I love dumplings with meat, and I don't understand dumplings with sorrel. But people order, it’s delicious for them, so we’ll do it”

Every New Product- this is a marketing ploy, an occasion to talk about a new product, to remind yourself in social networks, to interest a potential buyer. The company does not bear any costs and risks, since it does not hold a commodity stock. Raw materials are bought on order - they paid so much, they mold so much. Made, frozen, sent for delivery.

“Of course, this is not the way to work with wholesalers,” Ella agrees. “But our business is rapidly scaling. If necessary, we will make half a ton of dumplings in 10 days: three days to gather sculptors and buy additional freezers, and a week to produce.”

Between Miratorg and farmers

The volume for a business like Pelmeshka is a lifeline, it allows you to significantly reduce the share of non-product costs, which is slightly less than half of the total cost. We are talking about salaries, logistics, communications, renting a workshop, etc.

More than half of the costs are accounted for by the cost of raw materials: meat, flour, eggs, cheese, cottage cheese, seasonings and other ingredients. Modest turnover does not allow the company to take raw materials at wholesale prices, which greatly affects the cost.

“In the premium segment, product quality is the number one factor. We cannot afford gray flour, the dough from which will crack. We can't use egg powder - only selected eggs"

The company buys pork and beef from Miratorg - the main facilities of the agro-industrial holding are based in the Bryansk region. Flour - Chelyabinsk manufacturer "Makfa" (the grandfather of Ella Vetlugina worked at this plant). The rest of the products - lamb, chicken, turkey, eggs - are supplied by local farms.

“At first I thought that we would cooperate exclusively with farmers, but not all farmers turned out to have proven meat. Therefore, I take pork and beef from Miratorg - their meat is both tasty and proven. But, alas, they don’t deal with lamb,” says the hostess of Pelmeshka.

Seasonal goods - vegetables, mushrooms (for example, chanterelles) and berries - the company buys at farmers' markets as needed. But truffles - from partners, the Moscow store "Mushroom Place". “We basically don’t freeze anything, only fresh ingredients.”

Cheese in Bryansk dumplings is produced by the cheese factory of Oleg Sirota, a well-known apologist for import substitution. Ella was visiting him and brought back 100 kg of Imeretian cheese. Following this, several new types of dumplings appeared in the assortment at once - with cheese and potatoes, with cheese and cottage cheese.

Ella selects suppliers herself. During the first year of Pelmeshka, she changed suppliers of turkey, chicken and cottage cheese: “We have a rule: two complaints from a client - and we stop working with the supplier. It's tough, but otherwise we won't be able to maintain our reputation. Two clients complained of heartburn - and we went to work with another poultry farmer. We initially took cottage cheese from a factory, produced by a local enterprise, but switched to a farmer's one. And the price went up immediately.”

Delivery - outsourced

The advantages of Bryansk are not limited to delicious meat and cheap labor force, it is also close to Moscow. The distance of 350 km makes it possible to transport goods to the home of capital buyers.

“We tried to carry it ourselves,” says the entrepreneur, “we worked with a partner, but it turned out to be the most convenient way to use the YouDo service – there is always someone who will do the task quickly and well. And if he doesn’t, it will affect his rating.

Now we use the services of private drivers, dumplings are delivered in freezer bags. In the summer, it happened that dumplings arrived a little melted, but this is not critical. We put additional batteries on St. Petersburg flights. For now, we have enough cars, but if we need to deliver half a ton, we will hire a refrigerator.”

At first, delivery extended to orders from 2 kg, but given that the client always pays for it (it costs 350 rubles), this restriction was canceled. You can order as much as you like.

The sundress works best

So far, April 2016 has become the best sales month for Pelmeshka, it brought 15% of annual revenue (turnover - 1.3 million rubles), about 400 kg of dumplings went to customers in a month. This was partly due to speed dial loyal audience - at this time there was an active growth, partly with seasonality.

In the summer, dumplings are rarely ordered - since May, diets, summer cottages, vacations begin. Demand rises as customers return to their apartments. High season - autumn-winter. November 2016 was great. Although December and January are worse than last year, perhaps because prices have risen.

Starting investments in the business were recaptured after two months of operation of the workshop, the company ended the year in a small, but - plus

“I noticed that of all the promotion channels - and we tried different ads - only personal recommendations work. The neighbor praised - the neighbor bought. A well-known blogger wrote that he liked it - and customers ran to us. This phenomenon affects demand more than seasonality,” the entrepreneur assures.

The lion's share of Pelmeshki products is supplied to Moscow, about 10% - to St. Petersburg. Bryansk as a market turned out to be unpromising. “We tried to deliver our dumplings to local stores, the directors just took them home,” Ella recalls. - It is too expensive product for the local market. Yes, there are rich people here, but in order to reach them, you need to invest heavily in advertising - these costs are inappropriate.

Prices: not available below

“When I calculated the price, I started from the cost price and a small profit. In fact, most of our customers don't even look at the price, unlike wholesalers. Any wholesaler wants a price 100% less, but then I will work in the red. Wholesalers are guided by the discount price of automatic dumplings - about 205 rubles per kilo. We must put raw materials, work, delivery, profit into them. It's unrealistic. In addition, over the year, meat has risen in price by 25%, flour has slightly increased in price. Transportation costs have risen. And we raised our prices."

Today, in retail sales, hand-made Bryansk dumplings cost from 649 rubles per kilo of "Tender" (with chicken) to 1,500 per kilo of "Truffle". Classic dumplings are sold at 799 rubles per kg, "Siberian" - at 999 rubles. Manti - from 899 rubles per kg, pasties and kupaty - from 699 rubles, dumplings - from 499 rubles.

At the current turnover, the company has nothing to save on, except that ordinary freezers are used, and not for emergency freezing.

“We tried to cut costs, tried other flour, local producers - nothing worked. The sculptors asked to return the Chelyabinsk one, - says Ella, - They tried to beat the onion with a blender to speed up the process. As a result, about 40 kg of dumplings were spoiled. When you beat the onion in a blender or food processor, it gives juice, greatly softens the minced meat. To be tasty, the onion must be cut by hand - we still do this. ”

Lyrical digression No. 2: about the reputation of dumplings

“As far as I understand, the market for hand-made dumplings turned out to be empty, because it is hard to make money on it. Manufacturers eventually turn a blind eye to quality, and begin to cut costs by cutting costs. It is easier for cheese makers, they have more investments, more advertising, they, surprisingly, have a clearer product.

The urban audience is ready to try our product with great difficulty, because the people recent years ten got used to the fact that dumplings are such unhealthy food that is in the refrigerator just in case. Food that should not be fed to children. And we retrain the buyer, change his attitude to dumplings. There are people in the capitals who have never eaten homemade dumplings at all, this is a surprise for them.

It turns out that in order to disperse demand, you need to change your attitude towards the product. This, I repeat, is expensive - advertising works very poorly here. But for those who have already tried it, this is quite a festive product - we order dumplings for events, for birthdays.”

Markets

The first stores that undertook to sell hand-made Bryansk dumplings were the Molochny Dvor chain - a significant event happened in July 2016. But after Ella raised the price following the meat producers, the retailers stopped cooperation.

“According to the plan, another person was supposed to handle sales in the company, but it turned out that this is also my function. All contacts with restaurants, markets, shops go through me,” says the entrepreneur.

When it became clear that it would not be easy to enter the shops, Ella tried to take the Moscow markets by storm. Since June 2016, Pelmeshki products have been sold at the Petrovsky Bazaar. But it was not possible to enter the Danilovsky market - they make their own dumplings there.

The business centers did not live up to the entrepreneur's expectations: for top managers, the chefs make dumplings themselves, and the lower rank catering is not at all interested in such a product.

Cooperation with a Moscow restaurant that offered Bryansk dumplings on its menu could be called successful, but the restaurant closed. However, this experience has shown that restaurants are a potentially attractive category of partners, since they understand the cost of products. handmade. That is why, having moved to St. Petersburg, Ella first of all set her sights on getting acquainted with the sphere of premium catering.

In addition, Ella likes the appetites of St. Petersburg - on average, residents of the northern capital order more per person than Muscovites. For example, the last shipment weighing about 70 kg was destined for nine customers. But the biggest purchase - 21 kg of dumplings and semi-finished products - was made by a Muscovite.

Demand: from bachelors to slimmers

The audience of "Dumplings" is divided into several categories, which are united only by wealth - not below average. The first category is married people over 30 who have many children. The second is bachelors. The third is businessmen who, in principle, love "everything good." The fourth big category is girls who are concerned about healthy eating. For them, "Dietary" (beef, chicken), "Fitness" (turkey) and berry dumplings without sugar are specially introduced. By the way, the first two types are often taken by diabetics.

The most popular products in the Pelmeshki assortment are classic dumplings (pork and beef), Siberian dumplings (beef), dumplings with potatoes and mushrooms, Dagestan kurze (mutton), dumplings from three types of meat, with red fish

“Everything else is for assortment. Usually a person takes 5 kg of "classics", and one kilogram of some unusual ones - to try. For example, dumplings with squid. Or with cuttlefish ink – they have only been ordered twice so far.”

Expanding the assortment towards semi-finished products was the idea of ​​​​customers - some asked for manti, others for kupaty, and others for chebureks. All these products could have been on sale before, but Ella waited until autumn to show the entire range on the new website with “fastened” online payment.

Marketing comes with experience

“If I started a business now, I would not count on wholesale, I would not waste time on it. I would not delay with the site and take marketing much more seriously - from labels to social networks. And, perhaps, I would have found a partner who would be engaged in sales. Because there was a moment of take-off of the business, which we did not work out in full force - it was necessary to unwind this moment, and then it would “come by ferry,” Ella is sure.

The Pelmeshka packaging has changed several times over the past year. Initially, with an eye on stores, it was a plastic box with a sticker. However, it turned out that it cracks in the freezer. The box was replaced with strong freezer bags with a branded sticker. It turned out that the stickers in the freezer are peeling off. Then the stickers were replaced with a cardboard label with a hole, and they began to tie them with a linen rope to the bag.

“Despite the fact that this is a premium product, it turned out to be unprofitable for us to make the packaging more expensive. This would make sense for delivery to stores. But any box with a window will add 30 rubles to the cost. A private buyer will overpay them, but why? And the wholesaler will hang himself for them - in the wholesale people are bargaining for kopecks!

Pelmeshka also lured new customers with partner discounts (for example, buyers fish store receive a discount from Ella, and vice versa), and promotions (mushroom, berry dumplings as a gift). Everyone who brings a new client receives a kilogram of any dumplings as a gift for the next order. According to the entrepreneur, these events do not bring any visible result - it does not matter to the audience. But the base of reviews is accumulating.

During the summer, Ella tried to sell "dumpling subscriptions" for a period of three months to a year. The longer the term, the higher the discount: 3 months - 5%, 6 months - 10%, 12 months - 15%. The price includes delivery once a month.

So, the set "On a diet" (3 kg per month) included three types of dumplings - "Diet", "Fito" and "Summer". A three-month supply (9 kg) cost 5040 rubles, and an annual supply (36 kg) - 18480. There were also sets "Bachelor" (four types, 4 kg per month) and "Family" (four types, 5 kg per month). In absolute terms, the most expensive set was the family set - 60 kg per year for 34,800 rubles. It was an experiment - the offer was valid for several weeks. Two subscriptions for 6 and 12 months were sold. Most likely, the experiment will continue in 2017 - there are no subscriptions on the site yet.

Foggy future

“Frankly, it’s not all that rosy,” Ella admits. - If our client base does not grow organically or there is no investment to increase it, then it will be difficult. We are at the stage when we need to reach a new level, but there are no resources for this.”

To launch a massive advertising campaign The company needs investment. For Ella, this is a sore point: “I don’t really want to let investors into the business. Because after some time, the investor will say that you need to switch to automatic modeling and go online. This is a different idea, a different business. In this sense, I would prefer to take a loan - it will be my responsibility and I will not have to report to anyone.

“Later, when Pelmeshka becomes a big enterprise, we may have both an automatic machine and a budget line of dumplings, but not in the near future.”

A year ago, Ella tried to get a regional loan to open a business under a government program at 7% per annum. With this money, she was going to make the first batch for stores.

“I was told that if I want to take a loan of 1.5 million rubles, I must own two apartments: if I don’t pay, one will be taken away, but I won’t be left homeless. Then I went to commercial banks, but the vast majority of them lend to an already operating business - from a year or more. So this year I will go to the banks again - maybe something will work out. By this time, it is necessary to understand the advertising strategy in order not to waste money.

In mid-2016, Ella made the decision to scale back her advertising budgets, focusing on free promotion social networks – Facebook and LinkedIn. Activity in Vkontakte, according to her, did not bring customers, as well as paid advertising in groups. “Only recommendations worked,” the entrepreneur repeats.

To promote Instagram and Vkontakte is the task of this year. The company does not plan to expand its range in the near future. For complete happiness, it remains only to introduce khinkali: “But you need to learn how to make them flawlessly.”

Pelmeni production as a business: where to start, profitability, reviews. Today, these questions are of interest to many.

Key benefits

Like all other business areas, the production of dumplings has its advantages and disadvantages. Briefly about the first:

1. Lack of seasonality - they are equally in demand at any time of the year.
2. High business payback - with proper planning, it turns out to recapture all costs after 3 months of work.
3. Undemanding to investments - at the initial stage, a fairly modest amount will be required.
4. Undemanding to hire staff, at least at the initial stage. Also, you do not have to buy expensive equipment, rent a workshop or office.
5. Availability of ingredients and ease of manufacture.
6. Good prospects for small businesses.

Among the disadvantages include high competition. This is especially true for large cities. The only alternative is to increase the quality of the molded dumplings. Saving on meat or spices in this case is a path to failure.

Beginning of work

So where to start? Any business production requires a certain amount of time to prepare. In the case of the dumpling business, it usually takes about 2 months to resolve a number of organizational and related issues.

At the first stage, analyze the market and collect as much information as possible about the activities of competitors. A necessary step is to analyze the niche in your city.

The first step is to register a business. Only this often takes a lot of time, up to 2 weeks, and the associated expenses can reach 10 thousand rubles.

Finally, when it comes to large-scale production, you will need to find a room for which you need to obtain permits from the SES.

At the final stages, personnel are hired, raw materials are purchased, contracts are concluded with suppliers and buyers.

Documenting

If you plan to sell ready-made dumplings only to relatives, friends and colleagues at the initial stage, you can do without legal registration. However, in this case, it makes no sense to count on a large income - the clientele will be too limited.

In addition to opening an individual entrepreneur or LLC, you will need to collect a number of permits from various organizations. Among them are papers from Rospotrebnadzor and the conclusion of the Sanitary and Epidemiological Station. To obtain the latter, you will have to provide the exact recipe.

If at some point you move to work in a separate room or even a workshop, you will have to take care of permission from the fire inspectorate. Also, the building must comply with all necessary requirements and technical conditions. The product will certainly have a label with the name and a brief description.

In the case of hiring additional personnel, each person must have a sanitary book, which will have to be updated periodically. otherwise, there is a risk of receiving a very large fine.

Making dumplings as a business

Today, the market presents the products of many manufacturers, but at the same time, finding a niche for yourself is quite simple - everything here depends only on the quality of the products.

The business idea itself gained popularity in our country only a few years ago. In a short period, she was able to take one of the leading positions among other areas of entrepreneurial activity.

Two options

In this business, there are two main options for doing business: creating a small workshop and working from home.

Let's look at both in detail.

Workshop work

For this option, you will need to find and rent a room. Small in area, but sufficient for the free movement of equipment and workers. According to experts, at first, you can get by with a room of 50 square meters.

The main requirement: the presence of water, lighting and high-quality ventilation. Walls and floors should be finished with easy-to-clean materials, such as glossy tiles. It is equally important to bring the room in line with all sanitary standards.

The main machine will be a special machine for the formation of dumplings. When choosing a specific model, you should pay attention to the list of device features. Be sure to have several interchangeable frames for different product forms in the kit. In addition to it, you will need the following devices:

• Flour sifter - it is used to purify flour from all extraneous slightest impurities. In parallel, the device helps to saturate it with oxygen. Desktop options are in demand, which are actively used at the initial stages of business development.
• The so-called complex for making dough - there are two main varieties on the market: floor (they are more popular) and desktop. Preference should be given to those that are able to knead as steep a dough as possible.
• Meat grinders - grinding all the main components of minced meat. It is important that the device can work constantly, without interruption. It is worth paying attention to the presence of a reverse, which will help to avoid the need for cleaning films and cores, although this is a matter of personal preference.
• Mixers - with the help of such devices, high-quality mixing of minced meat is carried out. Of the main options, floor and desktop options. They are set in motion manually or connected to the power supply. It is better to give preference to the latter. It allows you to achieve the perfect consistency of minced meat for subsequent production.
• Packaging devices - are divided into fully automatic and semi-automatic. Features of the device allow you to pre-program the production date and weight. Automatic devices make it possible to completely remove people at this stage of production. As practice shows, completely transparent packaging should be preferred, as it allows buyers to see the product in advance, but if you want, you can imagine a more original version;
• Refrigeration equipment for raw materials and finished products.

Before choosing one or another model, you should calculate the approximate production volume and potential sales level. For example, if we are talking about a relatively small workshop, then you should focus on a productivity of about 100-200 kilograms per hour.

The technological process of the line in this case will consist of the following stages:

1. Test preparation.
2. Minced meat preparation.
3. Formation of finished products.
4. Freeze.
5. Packing.

Work at home

You can also make dumplings at home. The main thing is to constantly improve manufacturing process and keep product quality at the highest level. At the beginning of work, the products are distributed among acquaintances and friends, and then sales can be started to a wider range of customers. It is very important to build a reputation here. The notorious "word of mouth" will be a significant help.

Sculpting has many benefits. First of all, you do not need to rent a room. In addition, you do not have to hire employees, all the equipment can be found right in the kitchen. Most likely, you will not even need to open an IP. Unfortunately, it will be impossible to achieve large volumes and, accordingly, earnings by this method, but valuable experience can be gained.

Implementation

As production expands and in the process of finding a new clientele, it is possible to move away from a fairly close community of friends and acquaintances. In this case, you can try to sell goods through social networks and special forums.

In the future, it makes sense to try to conclude a contract with networks of cafes, dumplings and restaurants - such semi-finished products are in great demand in them. Finally, through them you can reach larger buyers. Of course, all this is possible only if the quality of the dumplings is up to par.

Another development option is the delivery of ready-made hot meals. Dumplings, dumplings and khinkali have already established themselves in this market. Such lunches are well-deservedly popular at enterprises, markets and offices. Finally, you can offer products to small retail outlets.

Profitability

On average, the cost of 1 kg of dumplings is about 70 rubles, while the price in stores is around 100 rubles. In this case, the profit will be 30 rubles per 1 kg. If we multiply this by the scale of about 800 kg of products and subtract all associated costs, we get net profit about 250 thousand rubles a month.

The production of dumplings pays for itself in less than a year, which indicates high profitability. Alternatively, you can use chicken meat - this will reduce the cost.

As for home-based production, it all depends on the final price of the product. Most often, revenue is about 20%. In some cases, if the product has already managed to establish itself and there is a base regular customers, the amount can increase up to 50%.

As for the costs of opening a workshop, the line alone will cost about 300 thousand rubles or even less. But it will be able to produce up to 650 kg of goods per day. However, more big business will also require advertising and wages employees.

Business plan

As already mentioned, one of the components of the success of any enterprise is a well-written business plan that will allow you to assess the profitability of the enterprise. It includes all expenses. An example of the cost of raw materials per 800 kg of products.

• Room selection
• Pelmeni packaging
• Recruitment
• Secrets of dumpling business

Today, you will not surprise anyone with the variety of the “dumpling miracle”. Supermarket shelves are torn apart by a variety of semi-finished products from various manufacturers, at various prices. Beginning entrepreneurs cannot compete with them. This requires huge capital, great connections and long arms. Of course, a novice businessman does not have all this.

But the major players in the dumpling market have a very vulnerable side. In almost 99% of cases, they produce dumplings on automatic machines and with a meat content in dumplings of at most 50%, or even less. Of course, the price of such dumplings is several times lower, and there is a demand for them.

But as practice shows, every year the Russian consumer begins to understand the quality of products more and more. If you give him a taste of a real tasty product, and do not deceive him with quality, you can win his trust on long years. It is on this path that small enterprises are going today, producing dumplings without the addition of soy and other elements that reduce the cost of the finished product.

These are the so-called "elite" dumplings, the price of which cannot be lower than 300 rubles / kg. You can't confuse the taste of real homemade dumplings.

All dumplings priced above 250 are made from natural meat, without the addition of vegetable soy. Soy is added only to cheap dumplings. This rule is followed by the company "Siberian Gourmet" - the leader in sales of semi-finished products in the market of the Urals and Siberia.

Hand-made dumplings are always more attractive to the consumer, as they are tastier and of better quality, unlike dumplings produced on a machine. This is precisely the advantage of small workshops, where only manual labor is used.

The cash turnover of a workshop that produces only 200 kg of dumplings per day can reach 1 million rubles per month. Of these, the profit can be 150 - 200 thousand rubles. But not everything is as sweet as it seems at first glance. The right economic approach is important here. About everything in order.

How to start planning the production of handmade dumplings

Why should production planning begin with sales? Yes, because many novice businessmen went bankrupt when they invested millions of rubles in the purchase of expensive equipment, and as a result received warehouses packed to the ceiling with finished products.

Their mistake was that during the formation of the business they did not plan to sell their products. Such a thing could be sinned in the 90s, when there was a shortage of products and any goods left what is called “flight”. Today, in a period of fierce competition, business needs to start with the question: “Who will I sell this product to, who is my buyer?”.

In the case of hand-made dumplings, the first sale can begin with the sale of trial batches to the closest acquaintances and friends. If you see how your dumplings are praised and ordered again and again, you can think that the success of your enterprise should take place.

After all, your dumplings will be in the same demand on the shelves of local stores. So we need to open...

Room selection

Many entrepreneurs involve relatives and friends in the business at a very early stage. They make dumplings at home. When capital is very limited, this is often the only way out.

There is nothing shameful in this. When the volume of production and sales of dumplings exceeds 200 kg per day, you can already think about renting a room, buying equipment and expanding the staff.

When producing even 200 kg of dumplings per day, the size of the room should be no less than 50 m2. It should have areas for receiving and cutting meat, a dough preparation area, a dumpling molding (production) area, and a finished product storage area.

The workshop must comply with all sanitary standards for food production. The premises must be clean, the walls must be plastered and covered with paint, the floors must be filled or tiled. The room must be equipped with a toilet room. It is also necessary to install a container with a disinfectant solution for processing and washing hands with instructions for them. Etc.

Do not forget about the presence of fire safety. These are the minimum requirements that apply to this kind of enterprises.

What equipment to choose for the production of handmade dumplings

1. Flour sifter - from 15 thousand rubles;
2. Dough rolling - from 30 thousand rubles;
3. Meat grinder - from 17 thousand rubles;
4. Dough mixer - from 60 thousand rubles;
5. Meat mixer - from 40 thousand rubles;
6. Refrigerators, 2 pcs. - from 100 thousand rubles.

Total costs - from 262 thousand rubles.

By the way, you can start the production of hand-made dumplings without the above equipment at all. They all made homemade dumplings. Such production is limited only by the presence of a meat grinder, and the rest of the operations are done manually.

There are several ways to find an investor:

The other side of the coin of such savings is the speed of production of dumplings, which will be extremely low.

The above set of equipment is enough to produce up to 700 kg of handmade dumplings per day. When the production volumes reach 1000 kg per day or more, it is worth thinking about buying shock freezing chambers and building a separate warehouse for finished products.

Manual modeling can be partially replaced by automatic. To do this, you can purchase a dumpling machine, for example, the HLT-700XL brand. In general, Italian, Ukrainian, Chinese and Russian equipment is present on the equipment market for the production of dumplings.

However, prices vary considerably. The most expensive is Italian equipment, it is also the most reliable and advanced. However, many enterprises successfully operate on cheaper Chinese counterparts. The most affordable equipment for the production of dumplings is ours - domestic.

Ultimately, the choice of equipment depends on the preferences of the business owner and on his financial capabilities.

Pelmeni packaging

Separately, it is worth studying the process of packing dumplings. Currently, there are three types of packaging: manual, automatic and semi-automatic. The manual packaging process is when the operator manually packs the dumplings in a plastic bag and seals the open part.

This method is still used by many small producers in provincial cities. And this justifies itself, because for the purchase of an automatic packaging line, an entrepreneur will have to pay at least $20,000.

For small businesses, the way out of the situation is to purchase a semi-automatic line, the cost of which is just over $3,000.

How much money is needed to produce dumplings

An important point when starting a business is the issue of supplying ingredients for the production of dumplings. These include premium flour, beef and pork meat, eggs, onions, peppers, herbs, salt, and water.

According to some data, for the production of dumplings with a volume of 200 kg per day (4800 kg per month), the monthly cost of raw materials will be at least 300 thousand rubles.

Recruitment

The most important cost item of the dumpling shop is wages. The less automated the production process, the more workers are required. Therefore, even a small workshop for hand molding dumplings will require 10-15 people directly involved in the process of making dumplings.

Also, a small business will need to hire a technologist, a driver, sales managers, loaders. Accountant and cleaner can be hired under contracts paid provision services (or outsourcing). Do not forget that each employee must have a health book with him in case of an inspection.

What taxation system to choose for a dumplings shop

The organizational form of the workshop for the production of dumplings can be an ordinary individual entrepreneurship. The most favorable tax regime for such an enterprise is the simplified taxation system (STS), 6% of the revenue or 15% of the profit of the enterprise.

Secrets of dumpling business

• You can simply reduce the cost of dumplings produced by adding potatoes to the meat. The result is meat - potato dumplings, the taste is no worse than pure meat dumplings, but the cost is the same.
• To reduce the cost of dumplings, without loss of quality, you can increase the percentage of water in the dough and minced meat. Technologically, it is possible to bring the percentage of water content in minced meat up to 20%, while the taste of dumplings only gets better.

How to start a handmade dumplings business

The production of hand-made dumplings must be started simultaneously with registration as individual entrepreneur or an individual and in parallel to establish markets for finished products. For starters, you can organize it at home and involve relatives to help.

After the appearance of the first profit, you can think about renting a room or acquiring production space as a property.

If more than 200 kilograms of dumplings are produced per day, then the minimum production area should be 50 square meters. The premises are divided into separate sections:

1. acceptance of meat and its cutting;
2. dough preparation;
3. production of dumplings;
4. storage area.

In addition to the above, the premises must have a toilet room, as well as a special container for washing hands by employees. Mandatory presence of a special disinfectant solution detailed instructions according to the rules for its use.

What taxation system to choose for registering dumplings

When setting up production for manual modeling of dumplings, there is no need to open entity. It is enough to register as an individual entrepreneur.

In this case, the most optimal solution would be to choose a simplified taxation system. You can also pay tax, both on the proceeds received and on profits. In the first case it is 6%, and in the second - 15%.
