Open a business in mineral waters. Drinking water production: water bottling lines. Costs and payback

Any products and liquids must be of good quality so that a person is not at risk of serious poisoning and illness. The requirements for water are even stricter, because without it no life is possible. But there are few reserves of pure natural water that can be drunk without pre-treatment. The tap liquid has to be passed through a filter, settled or boiled. But when you are thirsty, there is no time or desire for such procedures. It’s easier to buy bottled water in a store or order it home through a delivery service. There is never enough drinking water, and demand is growing. This enables the entrepreneur to develop a business plan for the production of drinking water and offer his range on the market.

To understand what investments are needed to implement the idea, it is advisable to prepare a business plan for the production of drinking water with calculations. It can be presented as a clear example to banks or other partners who decide to help financially.

Summary

It is planned to launch the production of carbonated and still drinking water without any additives. The main activity is aimed at the production of soft drinks.

The raw materials will come from a personal well. The deposit was found, the quality and composition of the water was determined in the state laboratory. The well is located in a forested area. There is no opportunity to establish production directly at the source. Therefore, water will be pumped into reservoirs and delivered to production located in the suburbs.

Premises: 2-storey building with adjacent territory. The area of the premises is 300 sq. m. On the 1st floor there will be a workshop and warehouse, on the 2nd floor there will be rooms for staff and administration. The building requires repairs, redevelopment, and communications.

Form of activity: LLC (limited liability company). Activity code No. 11.07 – “Production of soft drinks, various bottled drinking waters.”

Taxation – simplified (STS).

Service list

Production of drinking water, carbonated and still.
Wholesale sales to grocery stores and supermarkets.
Targeted delivery to customers upon call.

Production mode

Production: daily from 09.00 to 19.00.

Address delivery service: from 08.00 to 20.00.

Preparation of documents

Based on the fact that the raw materials will be used from your own well, you need to draw up documents for this site. Having received permission and the right to work, we submit the water for testing to a state laboratory. The expert report is in hand. The water does not contain large impurities, which will reduce the number of purification steps. The worse the water, the more expensive it will be to produce and the more difficult it will be to compete with water with better taste.

Permission from the administration to open a drinking water plant.
Lease agreement for premises in which drinking water production will be located.
Conclusion of the SES on the possibility of opening a workshop in the selected area.
Conclusion of the fire department on safety conditions.
Quality certificates for equipment that will be used at the enterprise.
Certificate of quality of water that will be supplied to the consumer. Without this passport, stores will not accept the goods on their shelves.
An agreement with a power supply company to connect a high-power line, because the production line is fully automated.
Employees must have a health certificate and an employment contract.

Project estimate

Let's move on to the important part of the business plan - calculations. This will allow you to determine the costs that will arise during the preparation phase for launching a bottled water line. Expense items are shown in the table:

Type of expenses	Amount of investment, thousand rubles.
Collection of documentation and business registration (water analysis, well registration, approval by inspection agencies, product licensing)	250
Equipment of the production area	–
Automatic blow molding machine for plastic bottles from 0.5 to 10 l	800
Molds for containers	50

These are the costs of equipping a well and a water production workshop with equipment. Additionally, funds will be required for cosmetic finishing, furnishings, and communications.

Investment information is preliminary. The cost of equipment, finishing materials, and various services may vary because performers and suppliers have not yet been selected. But first, to launch the production of drinking water, investments of more than 10 million rubles are required. Transportation costs for moving raw materials from the well to the plant, delivering products to customers, and funds for production until the first profit is not taken into account are not taken into account. Let's add 1.5 million rubles to these costs. The final estimate is 11.5 million rubles.

The plant provides a shift work schedule for some employees. This is due to the daily work of production in order to quickly reach the required profitability of the enterprise.

We are planning preparations for the opening

So that the preparation process does not drag on, we will set a time frame for each stage and follow this plan:

It will take about 6 months for the workshop to operate at full capacity. Perhaps the deadlines will shift due to unforeseen circumstances. It is desirable that water becomes available to consumers in the summer season. At this time, the demand for bottled water increases due to high air temperatures and increased thirst. You can quickly make a profit and analyze the profitability of your business.

Range and price level of water

The production is young and has not yet found its client. Therefore, you should not open a line of a wide range of bottled water. The list of products and prices are shown in the table:

As we reach the breakeven point, water for children and mineral water may be added to the range.

What do we get as a result?

Let's calculate the possible profit that water production should bring to an entrepreneur. We will take as a basis the sale of the entire assortment, provided that there will be a daily shipment of 2000 bottles of different sizes.

Product type	Quantity, pcs.	Price per one. rub.	Revenue per day, rub.
Drinking water, still, volume 0.5 l	250	15	3750
Drinking water, still, volume 1 l	250	20	5000
Drinking water, still, volume 1.5 l	300	28	8400
Drinking water, still, volume 5 l	250	80	20000
Drinking water, still, volume 10 l	300	140	42000
Drinking water, carbonated, volume 0.5 l	100	18	1800
Drinking water, carbonated, volume 1 l	200	22	4400
Drinking water, carbonated, volume 1.5 l	200	32	6400
Drinking water, still, volume 2 l	150	40	6000
RESULT			97750

Provided that daily revenue is 98,000 rubles and shipments are made at least 5 times a week, monthly revenue is planned to be 1,960,000 rubles. Now you can calculate the profitability and net profit that will be received per month. Income and expenses are reflected in the table:

At the initial stage, investments were made in the amount of 11.5 million rubles. The company will reach payback in 2.5 years. The deadline may change if the monthly turnover is higher than that taken as the basis for the calculation in the business plan.

We are strengthening our position in the segment

There are many drinking water producers on the market, so there is a serious struggle ahead. You need to think over a strategy to consolidate your position in the market and attract an audience that already buys bottled water. You will need the help of a specialist who knows the state of the niche and the positions of other manufacturers. We will turn our attention to the production side to provide people with quality water.

At the initial stage, our main focus is on delivering water upon individual request, so that local residents learn about our products. For this:

Together with the supplier, we will launch a promotion designed for a large volume of supplies. For example, every 3rd bottle is free, or with a one-time payment of 10 bottles of water, a 10% discount on the entire volume.
Conduct a water tasting in a supermarket so that consumers evaluate the quality and submit an application.
Send electronic and written messages about cooperation with enterprises and offices on favorable terms.
Offer services to kindergartens, schools, and universities at a reduced price for a one-time application of at least 5 bottles.
Design a website on which to post information about your production and favorable terms of cooperation for retail and wholesale customers.

Monitor the pricing policies of your competitors so as not to get out of line with the excessive cost of drinking water.

Eventually

It is possible to earn substantial capital in the production of drinking water if you have the finances for this, a good source of groundwater and territory for a workshop. The investments required are huge, because the process of purifying raw materials requires only a high-quality automated line. Don't be afraid of competition. Consumers usually prefer water from local producers, believing that it is not profitable for a businessman to deceive his fellow countrymen. But you should be prepared for frequent SES checks on the quality and composition of products so that there is no threat to the health of consumers.

Today drinking water is purchased not only for home use. It is ordered for offices, catering establishments, hospitals, childcare centers, and production workshops. There will always be a demand for this product, since at any time of the year a person simply cannot live without it. Of course, such an important product cannot be ignored by modern entrepreneurs. Mineral water production is one of the most promising and inexpensive business ideas.

It may seem that there is no simpler product than drinking water. However, there are many types of it. The main groups are mineral table species, natural table species and medicinal species. The first type contains at least 1-2 g of salts per liter. In addition, the composition contains pharmacologically active components. Medicinal table waters contain more salts. They contain biologically active components. Medicinal types are products in which the total mineralization is not less than 12 g per liter. They can only be used as prescribed by a doctor. Based on the amount of anion and cation exchange resins contained in the product, table waters are divided into 19 groups, and medicinal table waters into 28 classes. There are about 160 species of the former, and no more than a hundred of the latter.

What equipment to choose for the production of drinking water?

The production line for bottled drinking mineral water costs about 1 million rubles. The equipment set includes:

Saturator or carbonation plant	It resembles a cylinder in which a certain pressure is created. It is controlled by a valve; the level is shown by a pressure gauge installed on it. Before saturation with carbon dioxide, the water is cooled to 6 °C.
Filling and capping machine	It rinses and fills soft drinks into PET containers or glass bottles with volumes from 0.33 to 19 liters. The equipment can be sealed with a plastic cap, crown cap or aluminum cap.
Well pump	Mineral water is considered to be water obtained from a depth of 100 meters or more. The equipment must be powerful enough to pump it out and send it to the production line.
Water containers	Used to store drinking water before and during processing.
Block for the production of PET bottles	Forms a container into which the product will be poured in the future.
Equipment for packing	Serves for packing bottles into briquettes, convenient for further transportation and storage.

Drinking water production technology

The production of bottled and draft drinking water occurs using this technology. Water from wells flows into special containers. It rises through pipes using special deep-well pumps. Such drinking water always contains mechanical impurities. To get rid of them, the water is carefully filtered. If this is not done, the product will sooner or later become cloudy and spoil. Industrial filters are made from well-known materials: coal, sand, and others. At the next stage, the water is purified from biologically active organisms. Ultraviolet radiation is used for this.

Not all mineral water is carbonated. As practice shows, the product without gases is in less demand. Therefore, in order to achieve the desired level of sales, water must be passed through a saturator. It will saturate it with carbon dioxide. The water is cooled in a heat exchanger. Carbon dioxide is also dissolved there.

In modern factories, containers for the product are made themselves. Installations for its production do not take up much space, and production does not depend on suppliers. Branded stickers and a special design are another important feature that affects sales and the success of an enterprise’s marketing policy.

Ozonation of bottled drinking water

Saturation of water with oxygen (ozonation) removes harmful microorganisms from the liquid, disinfects it and even imparts some healing properties. The oxygen that gets into the water does not affect its mineral properties, but it improves the taste and makes the product useful for humans. It has been proven that the cellular structure of water that has undergone ozonation is similar to the structure of human blood. The body processes it more easily.

The installation in which ozonation occurs (saturation of water with oxygen) can be purchased for 260 thousand rubles. It has a certificate of conformity ROSS RU.AB67.H00706 No. 0276073. The water passed through it complies with domestic standards and regulations. In the installation you can:

Such equipment is capable of ozonizing from 50 to 500 liters of drinking water per hour. It is a single housing that does not require special installation. The technology does not consist of carbonation, but of filling drinking water with oxygen at the ionic level. The output is a liquid that contains 40 mg per 1 liter of dissolved oxygen.

Ozonation of mineral bottled drinking water in production is carried out immediately before bottling. The ozone level in such liquids is 0.2-0.3 mg/l. They can be usable for quite a long time.

Ozonation occurs in a very short time, but nevertheless, it allows you to disinfect the product and container. Ozone also affects the filling system itself, the cap, the neck of the bottle and other elements involved in the process. Once the bottle is sealed, the ozone molecules are converted into oxygen. This process makes the product virtually sterile until it is consumed. Ozonation is mainly used at the last technological stage.

In the end, it should be noted that on average in the industry, the production of drinking mineral bottled water has a profitability of about 30%. With this indicator and provided that the products are fully sold, the investment promises to pay off within 12 months. The period will accordingly increase if more expensive equipment is purchased and production premises are purchased.

What equipment to choose for the production of mineral water

To organize a small production of mineral water, a novice entrepreneur needs to purchase special equipment. Depending on available finances, this may be new or used equipment. There is also the option of purchasing each machine separately or purchasing a ready-made automated production line.
To produce mineral water you need to buy the following elements:
- well pump;
- coarse and fine filter units or automatic system;
- bottle production equipment;
- reservoirs and tanks for water;
- automatic bottle filling and capping machine;
- apparatus for producing labels.

Mineral water production technology

The technology for producing mineral water consists of several stages. During the production process, water undergoes some processing. Using special pumps, mineral water is pumped out from wells 300–400 meters deep and raised into storage tanks. Next, the water enters the filter unit, where it is purified by filtration materials in two stages - coarse and fine cleaning, and is also disinfected with ultraviolet rays. Before filling mineral water with CO², it is pre-cooled on a plate heat exchanger. After that, on a special production line, carbon dioxide is saturated, the solubility of which in water depends on temperature and pressure.
Pre-prepared preforms are fed into a bottle making machine, where they are heated and pressurized into the finished shape of the containers. At the last stage, mineral water is poured into PET bottles, sealed with plastic caps, and a marked label is attached. Finished products are placed in shrink film in 6 pieces, stored or immediately delivered to customers.

Why is the production of mineral water an idea for a promising business with high profits? The popularity of bottled water has grown significantly in recent years. They buy it not only in the heat, but also at home, in the office, in the gym and on the road. We tell you what types of mineral waters exist and what their benefits are, how to produce bottled water, how much costs will be required and how quickly they will pay off.

Mineral water has a high content of salts, trace elements and biologically active components. They are extracted from aquifers or complexes isolated from human influence. It should be understood that not all water from underground sources, and especially not all drinking water, can be considered mineral, although in speech it is often called that way.

The composition of mineral waters makes them a medicinal and prophylactic agent, the use of which is strictly dosed. Often the most intense ones are drunk in courses. All mineral water is usually divided into:

Dining room. The lowest salt content is up to 1 gram per liter. Suitable for regular use. It is harmless to most people, its effect is preventive.
Medical canteen. It has a high salt content, from 1 to 10 grams of salt per liter. It can have a healing effect, but especially saturated formulations should be consumed in accordance with the dosage, and in case of diseases of the stomach and kidneys - only as prescribed by a doctor.
Medicinal. The salt content exceeds 10 grams in 1 liter. Sold only in pharmacies and used as prescribed by a doctor.

Depending on the composition, mineral water can be table water, medicinal table water, or medicinal water.

There is another classification based on ionic composition:

Hydrocarbonate. The healing effect is to reduce the acidity of gastric juice. Useful for urolithiasis. Using the dosage and method of use, you can accelerate or inhibit secretion.
Chloride. It has a beneficial effect on the pancreas and intestines. Speeds up metabolism.
Sulfate. Helps improve the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. Useful for diabetes, excess weight, chronic hepatitis.
Hydrocarbonate-chloride-sulfate. Helps soften chronic gastritis, reduces the amount of gastric juice.
Bicarbonate-sulfate calcium. Useful for chronic gastrointestinal diseases.
Chloride-sulfate. Indicated for use by those who are overweight, with diabetes, gout and diseases of the biliary tract.
Mineral-organic. Helps treat chronic kidney disease.
Glandular. Treatment of thyroid diseases, iron deficiency anemia.

The benefits of mineral water

Mineral water is useful and can demonstrate a therapeutic effect only if the method of its intake is followed. To achieve maximum effect, it is not drunk like water, but taken hourly, in certain dosages at a certain temperature. For example, when cold it can enhance the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines, and when warm it can relieve spasms.

The general therapeutic effect on the body of a healthy person is to strengthen the skin, bones, hair and nails, increase immunity, regulate the acid-base balance, increase hemoglobin and replenish fluid balance.

The effect of water on the body directly depends on its composition, therefore, in case of specific diseases, you should drink mineral water with a salt content of more than 1 gram as prescribed by a doctor.

Technology for the production of drinking and mineral bottled water

Due to high demand, the water business promises to be promising. In simple terms, then There are 2 technologies:

production of natural mineral water (extraction from wells, processing and packaging);
production of artificial mineral water (salt and microelements are added to purified water).

The first type is the most in demand and is rightly considered more useful. In this article, we will look at the production and sale of natural mineral water.

The process begins with pumping water out of wells using industrial pumps. Freshly extracted water necessarily contains foreign impurities; it may have a cloudy tint, so it is sent for filtration. Coal and sand are usually used for this. But such purification is not enough, because microorganisms live in water. They get rid of them using ultraviolet radiation.

The production of sparkling water seems more promising - the demand for it is higher. Therefore, after purification and ultraviolet treatment, the water is passed through a saturator, in which it is saturated with carbon dioxide and becomes carbonated. Next, the final stage is bottling into plastic or glass containers. Most of these companies prefer to produce bottles themselves: this allows them to use a proprietary design and ultimately turns out to be more cost-effective than purchasing containers from another manufacturer.

The depth of a mineral water well can reach 1500 meters

Features of mineral water extraction

A business plan for the production of drinking water must take into account some features of the extraction of this product. Mineral water is pumped out from wells, the depth of which can reach 1500 meters. It is believed that suitable water already lies at a depth of 100 meters, but You can get truly unique and healing compounds from a depth of 300 meters. The depth and composition of the water depend on the region.

It is not enough to simply drill a deep well, install a pump and pump out water. With this approach, it will not be possible to preserve the unique composition of the water, and the sad consequence of this approach will be the depletion of the well. Water extraction begins with the preparation of a well design, which provides for a certain volume of production, self-flow (needs to be calculated to prevent depletion of the well) and conservation. Only specialists with specialized education can develop and implement such a project.

Equipment for the production of

The production of drinking water requires the following lines of machinery and equipment:

Well pump operating at a depth of 100 meters. Pumps out water and directs it to the production line.
Filter for water purification for production. Groundwater is not suitable for consumption without filtration. To clean it, coal, sand and special multi-stage filtration systems are used. It is better to choose multifunctional devices that simultaneously perform several water treatment options.
Saturator, installation for carbonation. The water is cooled and saturated with carbon dioxide. Carbonated drinks not only sell better, but also retain their healing properties better.
Reservoirs and tanks. Used to store liquids at intermediate production stages.
Equipment for a water bottling line. Most enterprises purchase a block for the production of plastic bottles; this turns out to be more profitable than purchasing containers from other manufacturers. More expensive water is usually bottled in glass.
Packaging equipment and label machine. The bottles are placed in briquettes and covered with polyethylene for ease of transportation.

The total cost of equipment for the water bottling line will be approximately 1.5 million rubles. This amount does not include drilling and construction of a well. Sometimes the water is additionally saturated with oxygen. This process is called ozonation and is carried out using special equipment. Its approximate cost is 260 thousand rubles. This machine is also used to disinfect containers.

Premises for organizing production

To fit all the necessary equipment in one room, you will need an area of 300 square meters. The location of the workshop should be as close as possible to the well. All communications will be required - electricity, gas supply - and convenient access roads. Most equipment runs on electricity, so you need a reliable connection and a backup generator.

Before launching the line, you will have to pass an inspection by the sanitary and epidemiological service. The main requirement of this regulatory body is the absence of harmful materials in the finishing of the workshop that could get into the water during filtration and bottling. The fire inspectorate will check emergency exits and the reliability of the electrical network.

Pay special attention to the warehouse. If the water is properly treated and hermetically sealed, no special storage conditions are needed. A fairly large area with a flat floor where packaged products can be stored. Temperature about 15 degrees, low humidity (high moisture content in the air will damage the labels).

Plastic and glass containers are used for mineral water

Selection of containers

Mineral water is poured into 2 types of containers:

glass;
plastic.

Glass containers are considered more beneficial from an environmental point of view, as they do not pollute the environment and can be recycled. Many buyers are confident that glass containers are safe for them because they do not release any harmful substances into the water. However, making such containers is more difficult; it will cost the manufacturer many times more. In the future, these expenses will definitely pay off. Water on tap in glass containers is perceived by consumers as more elite, so they are willing to pay more for it.

Plastic bottles are more economically profitable for the manufacturer, because equipment for plastic containers can be located in its own workshop. It is not as expensive, and working on it is not as labor-intensive as making glass vessels. The price of a turnkey PET water bottling line will be approximately 900 thousand rubles.

Costs and payback

Organizing the production of bottled water with your own well at a depth of 300 meters is quite expensive. All expenses are divided into 4 directions:

well (design, drilling, maintenance) - cost negotiable, but not less than 500 thousand rubles;
production line - from 3 million rubles;
container production line - from 500 thousand rubles;
workshop rental/construction, transport and other expenses.

You should not expect less than 3 million rubles to launch such an enterprise; a more realistic amount is 5 million. Add to this payment for utilities and payroll.

How quickly the investment will pay off depends on the level of sales. Medium-capacity equipment will produce approximately 10 thousand liters of mineral water per shift. It will be sold in different containers: from 0.33 to 1.5 liters. The average cost of a liter of such water is higher than that of ordinary drinking water - 35–40 rubles. For a shift it turns out to be 400 thousand rubles, for a month - about 11 million rubles. The trade margin will be about 30%, that is, approximately 3 million rubles will be the net profit of the enterprise.

Conclusion

The production of mineral water is quite promising and has a quick payback. You will have to invest approximately 5 million rubles in organizing the enterprise. The exact cost is determined by the depth of the well, the power of the equipment, and the type of container. With proper organization, you will be able to earn 2-3 million rubles in the first month, and in the first year of work you will be able to recoup 100% of all starting investments.

In this material:

Bottling drinking water as a business is a very promising area. After all, the quality of tap water in apartments leaves much to be desired, and it can hardly be called drinkable. It is contaminated with nitrates and pesticides, causing irreparable harm to human health. These factors are why more and more people are choosing to buy bottled water.

Bottled water market prospects

According to RBC experts, the annual growth of the drinking water market will be about 15-16%. This trend is indirectly confirmed by the growing demand for coolers. Today they are increasingly installed not only in office premises, but also at home. Today, the total number of installed coolers has exceeded 3 million units. As a result, the use of PET bottles has increased 6-fold in recent years.

Now bottled water already accounts for 2/3 of the non-alcoholic products market. The service line for delivering water in 5 and 19 liter bottles to an office or apartment is also developing at a faster pace. The growth of this market is 20-30%.

It is expected that the market will slow down its growth and reach the saturation stage only by 2020, when the total number of coolers will reach 10-12 million units. To fill the indicated market capacity, it will be necessary to increase water production capacity by 3-4 times. It can be assumed that after saturation the market will develop similar to the European one, about 10% per year.

But when entering the drinking water bottling market, it is worth considering that this segment is one of the highly competitive ones. Every year thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs try their hand at this field. Therefore, before starting this business, it is necessary to conduct marketing research, analyze the activities of competitors and decide on your niche in the market (create a unique product offer). You need not only a well-thought-out marketing strategy, but also a business plan that will allow you to calculate upcoming costs.

Business plan for water bottling production

The amount of initial investment in a water bottling business will depend on the format in which it is implemented. This could be opening your own water bottling production line, installing vending machines or kiosks selling drinking water.

Opening your own line for purifying tap water and bottling it into bottles is a fairly common option on the market. On the one hand, it allows you to act according to an understandable developed algorithm, but on the other hand, you will need to think through a strategy for distinguishing yourself from competitors and determine your advantages over them. These could be lower prices, a wide range (for example, selling additional sparkling water), high-quality service (free delivery for a certain order amount) or a flexible loyalty program.

When developing a draft business plan for opening a water bottling line, the following parameters must be taken into account. To operate a small production facility, you will need a water purification plant (or filters), water containers, water collection tanks, and bottling equipment. Filtration installations alone will cost about 100,000 rubles. You will have to pay about another 200,000 rubles for the bottling line. In total, the initial capital investment for production equipment will be about 400,000 rubles. This does not take into account installation services and connecting the facility to electricity and water supply.

We must not forget about the need to obtain permits and conduct examinations of water samples. For this you will need to pay about 10,000-15,000 rubles.

You will need to rent a small workshop with a warehouse. About 30 thousand rubles will be spent on rent monthly.

At least 3 people are required to operate the production. Assuming that their salary will be 20,000 rubles. per month, this will cost 60,000 rubles. To pay for water supply and electricity - about another 20,000 rubles. The business plan needs to take into account funds for advertising support: about 15,000 rubles. monthly. In total, variable costs will be about 150,000 rubles. per month.

Taking into account the quick start and reaching monthly sales of 250,000 rubles. you can achieve a quick return on investment in production.

The funds can be returned in 6-7 months and all that remains is to make a profit. Whether an entrepreneur can achieve such results depends only on him.

Business plan for bottling water for private consumers

A kiosk where water will be sold is one of the options for organizing sales. To open such a business, you need to find a place to install a kiosk (optimally a residential area with a high population density), enter into a lease agreement with the administration, and also find wholesale suppliers of artesian water.

The cost of the kiosk itself with a module for bottling water, a filter and an ozonizer is about 250-400 thousand rubles. They differ in tank capacity and are designed for 500-4000 liters.

An approximate business plan for opening a kiosk can be presented as follows:

Initial investment: RUB 300,000. (buying a kiosk).
Monthly costs - 28,000 rubles, of which rent of space for a kiosk - 1,000 rubles. per month; purchase of artesian water for 2 rubles. for 1 liter (subject to sales of 6000 liters per month) - 12,000 rubles; seller's salary - 15,000 rubles.
Revenue: when selling 1 liter for 10 rubles. will be 60,000 rubles. At the same time, net profit (after paying 6% tax according to the simplified tax system) is 30,080 rubles.

With this option, it will be possible to return the initial investment in 10 months, and then continue to work for profit. When you open several points, your monthly profit will only grow.

A business plan for selling water through a machine may have similar parameters. Its differences will lie in the fact that in this case there is no need to pay salaries to staff: sales will be carried out automatically, without human intervention. The cost of the machine itself is several times cheaper and amounts to about 150 thousand rubles.
