1. INTRODUCTION
Agriculture
Agriculture sector is the backbone of Pakistan’s economy employing about 45 % of thework force. Nature has blessed Pakistan with an ideal climate for growing a large varietyof vegetables and fruits. According to rough estimates about 30%-40% ofvegetables/fruits are wasted due to negligence and lack of cold chain / processingfacilities, which could convert them into non-perishable form, permitting itstransportation and storage without wastage. With the spread of education, change inhabits of populace, growth in working women force and increase in per capita income &urbanization, the demand for processed vegetable/fruit products is increasingprogressively.
Tomato Outlook
Tomato is a rich source of vitamin A & C and is cultivated over vast area of land in theworld. It has its origin from Themistition, city of Mexico where it was named asTomatile. Then its cultivation started in Central America and subsequently shifted toEurope. In Indo-Pak sub continent, its utility is growing year by year resulting into moredemand/cultivation. It is popular due to its color, taste & food value. Tomato has longbeen processed into Ketchup in Italy, Turkey, Greece, USA and European countries. It isused in large quantity at household and restaurants in the shape of tomato juice, tomatopuree and paste. These products are also gaining popularity in Pakistan.
Tomato, like other vegetables/fruits is a perishable commodity and has a shorter shelf lifein normal temperature. Therefore, problems are faced in the supply chain due tonon-existence of a cold chain system in the country which results in losses of product anddrastic price variations. Tomato Paste provides a way out with extremely positiveoutcome both commercially and financially. Indeed, tomato consumption by the foodprocessing industry revolves around the availability of user friendly intermediate productslike tomato paste, puree, ketchup and sauces.
Products, such as tomato paste/puree have potential demand with local fruit/vegetableprocessors as well as the retail market. Establishment of tomato processing facilities inthe country can contribute in reducing the dependence of local industry on importedtomato paste. The paste is currently being imported mainly from China, Iran and Turkey.About 2,400 tons of tomato paste was imported during the year 2005-2006. In Pakistan,

business opportunities in processing of vegetables and fruit products are yet to be fullyexploited.
Opportunity Rationale
Vegetables/Fruits processing industry, in general, is showing signs of healthy growth withexpanding product range and increased acceptability in the local market. Favorablenatural environment, increasing population, rising demand for processed vegetables andfruits, and relatively lower labour cost are some of the factors that can contribute towardssustained growth rate in this particular sector. Tomato is one of the most popularvegetables in the world. The derivatives of tomato like paste, juice, ketchup, etc. arewidely used in kitchens all around the world. With the increasing affluence of the world,its demand has increased very rapidly resulting in wide scale development of tomatoindustry for production of tomato paste/puree. Rise of the fast food industry in thecountry is also having a significant impact on the demand for tomato and fruit products. Itis expected that this trend will continue in the near future and the consumption of tomatowill increase.
Tomato ketchup industry is just another example of the success for the Pakistanicompanies which grew from its very humble beginning to the position of a player in theleague. The future also looks very bright with developing local and export marketsaround.
Per capita consumption is still very low as compared to developed countries. Forexample, US consumption of tomato paste per capita is 30 kg per year, EU countriesconsume 15 kg per capita, and Turkey consumes 1 Kg Per capita. As compared to thesefigures, per capita consumption in Pakistan is negligible. It shows that there is still bigpotential for demand from the local market, which is expected to rise with the passage oftime.
Economic Size of Plant
A tomato paste and pulp processing plant can be designed with a wide range of optimalprocessing capacity and product mix. However, it is suggested that the smallest viableeconomic processing unit should have 3 tons of tomato processing capacity per hour.Processing plant used for the purpose of this study will have annual processing capacityof 10,800 tons of tomato yielding 2,160 tons of tomato paste. The proposed plant willhowever, be capable to process upto 5 tons of tomato per hour.

2. RAW MATERIAL
Raw Material Requirements
The raw materials required for a tomato processing unit are:
Fresh Tomatoes.Preservative including Glacier Citric Acid, Potassium Met bisulphate or SodiumBenzoate.
Packaging Requirements
Packing requirements for the end consumers are:
Retail Customers: Tin Packs, Pouch Packs and Glass BottlesProcessors: Large Plastic ContainersHotel Industry: Large Tin Packs, Plastic DrumsAseptic pack in drums for foreign processors/bulk consumers
In the initial stage, the unit will start with bulk supply to processors/ hotel industry and would gradually move into retail sales. Export markets would be explored in later stage.
Availability of Raw Material
Small-scale farmers and wholesale market commission agents in vegetable & fruitmarkets are the major suppliers of raw material in the local processing industry. Tomato(the primary raw material), salt, preservatives etc. (secondary raw materials) are availablelocally. Metal containers, pouches and glass bottles (Packing material) are also availablelocally. Aseptic packs are normally imported and cost very high. Aseptic packing is usedfor obtaining long shelf life for products without preservatives and is used for exportpurposes.

Pakistan produced 468,146 tons tomatoes in 2005-06 which was 75 % more than theproduction in the year 2000-01. The growth in tomato production was normal till year2002-2003. But there was un-precedented increased of 35 % during 2003-04 ascompared to the last year. The main reason behind this was the extra ordinary productionof tomatoes in Baluchistan, as.it produced almost three times more tomatoes than the last

year’s production. In 2005-2006, out of total tomato production, 41% was in Balochistan,35 % in NWFP, 14 % in Punjab and 10 % in Sind.
Tomato is cultivated throughout the Pakistan. Previously N.W.F.P. was the main tomatogrowing province which used to contribute nearly 50% of total national production up till2003-04. Since 2004-05, Balochistan province is the leading producer of tomato inPakistan. The share of Balochistan’s production has increased from 13 % in 2000-2001 to41 % in the year 2005-2006. The main reasons are the growth in the development ofagriculture-able area, development of agricultural infrastructure, availability of water andfavourable Government policies.
Following tables shows the yearly average prices of tomato that prevailed in the country.

(Source: Ministry of Food Agriculture & Livestock’s)
The price of tomato is lowest in the province of Sind followed by the province ofBalochistan while it is highest in Punjab. Lower price in Sind is due to the consumerbehavior and supply factor as tomato from whole of the Pakistan is sent to Karachi (Sind)being a main consumption hub of agriculture produce due to concentrated population.

The above data shows that amongst top ten (10) districts, four (4) districts of Balochistancontribute 32 % towards the national production of tomato. While NWFP has five (5)districts which contribute 23 % towards the national production of tomato. On the otherside, Sind has only one (1) district which contributes 4 % towards the national productionof tomato.
It is evident from the above that Balochistan is producing the highest tomato crop inPakistan. Secondly, it has the second lowest tomato price in Pakistan. These factors makeit feasible and tempting to install tomato paste plant in Balochistan.
Tomato in Balochistan
Tomato is one of the major cash crops of Balochistan. In the year 2005-06 it produced 5.5times more tomato than was being produced in 2000-01, thus contributing 41% towardsnational production as compared to 13 % in 2000-01.

No specific data about tomato prices in Killa Saifullah is available. So the prices prevailing inQuetta, the only organized market in the province, can be relevant for Killa Saifullah. However,it is important to note that the prices in Killa Saifullah will be quite low as compared to prices inQuetta because it is the top tomato producing district of the province and its local consumption isnot very high.
If a project is set up a in Killa Saifullah - the hub of the tomato producing area, the material willbe procured directly from the grower which will be very low as compared to retail market pricesof the tomato. In this regard, we assumed that the tomato price will be some-where Rs 3/ Kg, butto be on realistic and higher side for the purpose of projections, the product price has been takenas Rs 5 / Kg.
Expected Yield from Tomato
Yield specifies the percentage of output (Finished Product) as compared to the input (RawMaterial). Yield is mainly dependent on the following factors:

3. TOMATO PASTE PRODUCT
TOMATO PRODUCTS
Tomatoes and tomato products have always been a natural part of human diet. Everyoneappreciates their red color and juicy taste. Recent research also indicates that processed tomatoesare good for human health due to a high content of lycopene. Last twenty years have witnessedan explosion of new and refined tomato products. Purées and passata have become majorproducts together with the more classical ketchup, tomato paste and chilli sauces. Driven by theinterest for ethnic food, there has also been a growing market for speciality sauces with particles,e.g. salsas with pepper and onions and a wide variety of tasty dip sauces. The variety of productsin this market is already large, and is expected to increase in the future with more and morecooking recipe products.
Major products of processed tomatoes include tomato paste, puree, tomato sauces, ketchup,whole canned tomatoes and juices.
TOMATO PASTE is the main product of processed tomatoes which is used as a raw material tomake ketchup, sauces and other tomato related products.
Processors of tomato paste usually sell to re-packaging companies which add different additivesto make specialized retail products such as ketchup, sauces and juices. Tomato paste is also usedas tomato substitute in restaurants, hotels and individual households.
4. PRODUCTION PROCESS
Detailed Production Process
The production process will involve the following steps:
Washing
Fresh tomatoes arriving at the plant in trucks are unloaded into a collection channel (also knownas flume), a stainless steel or cement duct into which a quantity of water 3 to 5 times higher thanthe amount of unloaded tomato is continuously pumped. For example, a 10 tons/hour raterequires at least 30m3/hour of water.
Sorting
This water flow carries the tomatoes onto the roller elevator, which then conveys them to thegrading station. The delivery trucks park-up alongside the flume and, while the trailerscontaining the tomatoes are being tilted towards it, an operator, using a special tube, pipes a vastquantity of water inside the truck, so that the tomatoes can flow out from the special 50 x 50cm
Feasibility study for Tomato Past Plant
12 PAKISTAN HORTICULTURE DEVELOPMENT & EXPORT BOARD
opening. In this way the tomatoes and the water will be gradually feed into the flume withoutgetting damaged.
The tomatoes then arrive at the grading station, after having been rinsed under a clean waterspraying system (preferably drinking water). Here the staff removes the green, damaged andexcessively small tomatoes which are placed on a reject conveyor (or an auger) and thencollected in a large box or directly inside a truck to be taken away.
Chopping/ Crushing
The tomatoes suitable for processing are transported to the chopping station (a hammer mill or aspecial mono-pump provided with pre-feeding screw) where they are chopped (broken andpulped).
Pre Heating
The pulp is pre-heated to 65-75°C for Cold Break processing or to 85-98°C for Hot Breakprocessing. The main control panel on the evaporator regulates the pre-heating temperature.
Pulping & Refining
The heated tomato pulp (fiber, juice, skin and seeds) is then conveyed via a special pump to anextraction unit composed of two operating stations: a pulper and a refiner, equipped with twosieves having different sized meshes. The first sieve processes solid pieces up to 1 mm, while therefiner processes solid pieces up to 0.6 mm, depending on the type of sieve fitted on the machine
(the manufacturer can supply sieves with different sized holes if necessary). Two products comeout of the extraction unit: refined juice for concentration and waste for disposal. The averageextractor yield varies according to different factors: the pulp’s temperature (a higher temperaturewill mean an increased juice yield), the variety of tomatoes treated, the type of sieve fitted, therotation speed and the shape of the rotor on each dejuicing body unit. On average, however, theyield is about 95%. For example, if the extractor is fed with 100 kg of hot pulp, it will produce95 kg of juice and 5 kg of waste. In addition, there is also a hypothetical product waste of about1-3% from the grading stations. Therefore, 100 kg of tomatoes unloaded from the trucks willproduce about 93-94 kg of juice to be concentrated. At this point the refined juice is collected ina large tank with an agitator which constantly feeds the evaporator. This tank is equipped withmaximum and minimum level indicators-adjusters which control the pump supplying juice to theevaporator.
Evaporation/Concentration
The juice in this storage tank is fed to the evaporator which automatically regulates juice intakeand finished concentrate output; the operator only has to set the Brix value on the evaporator’scontrol panel; during normal working conditions, the evaporator does not require any furtherregulations. The juice inside the evaporator passes through different stages where itsconcentration level will gradually increase until the required density is obtained in the final stageor “finisher”. Here the tomato paste is automatically extracted via a pump controlled by anelectronic refractometer.
Feasibility study for Tomato Past Plant
13 PAKISTAN HORTICULTURE DEVELOPMENT & EXPORT BOARD
The entire concentration process (evaporation) takes place under vacuum conditions and at lowtemperatures, significantly below 100°C. Product circulation inside the various concentrictubular exchangers is carried out by special stainless steel pumps which are designed to ensurethat the product is conveyed inside the exchanger tubes at a speed of over 1.2 m/sec to avoid“flash evaporation” thus avoiding to get burnt. This means it is possible to process for extensiveperiods without having to shut down the machine.
Evaporator output is measured in liters of evaporated water per hour while concentrating tomatojuice with an initial 5°Brix concentration and producing tomato paste double concentrate at 30°Brix. All the tomato juice evaporators are designed according to these parameters. Theevaporative capacity of tomato juice concentrators is greatly influenced by the viscosity level. Ifthe tomato paste has a low Bostwick value, then the concentrator’s output level will also be low;on the other hand, a higher Bostwick value means an increased output level. It is thereforefundamental to know if the productivity data supplied by a manufacturer refers to HB or CBfinished products.
Aseptic Filing & Packaging
The concentrate is sent from the evaporator directly inside the aseptic system tank. From here itis pumped at high pressure inside the aseptic sterilizer-cooler and then to the aseptic filler, whereit is filled into pre-sterilized aseptic bags housed in metal drums. The sterilization temperatureand the holding time vary according to the product’s PH value. Generally speaking, a product
with a pH value equal to or less than 4.2 could have a sterilization temperature of 115°Cmeasured at the end of the holding section, and a holding time of at least 60-90 seconds. On theother hand, if the pH value is greater than 4.2, it is advisable to acidify the product in order tobring it to about 4.1, improving taste and final product quality.
The sterilized tomato paste is cooled down to about 35-38°C before being piped intopre-sterilized aluminum bags housed in special metal or plastic bins via a special aseptic filler.The packaged concentrate can be kept up to 24 months depending on its pH value and ambientconditions.
Storing
When storing for over 12 months, it is however advisable to conserve it in refrigerated cells,more to reduce oxidization, which could cause darkening than to protect the product’s asepticquality.

PROCESS FLOW CHART:
Production Flow is summarized below:
The tomatoes, discharged from trucks, are hydraulically transferred to the sorting
tables, where they are washed and quality checked (1). Water recycling and filtering
provide optimal operation of the system.
After sorting, the whole tomatoes are collected in one tank, then pumped (2) to the
chopping system (3).
Then, depending on customers' requirements, they are fed either to the Hot-Break
enzyme inactivation unit (4) or to the Cold-Break heater (5).
After this treatment, the product is fed to the refining groups (6) for separation of the liquid
from the solids, producing the refined juice and waste (peels/seeds/stalks). The refined juice
Feasibility study for Tomato Past Plant
15 PAKISTAN HORTICULTURE DEVELOPMENT & EXPORT BOARD
is collected in a tank (8) while the waste is treated to recover the remaining part of the juice
still present (7).
Both the product collection (8) and the storage tanks (9) feed the evaporator
continuously by means of centrifugal pumps.
The concentration phase allows, during the evaporating process (10), production of
concentrated products with different Brix characteristics.
UHT sterilizing treatment (ultra high temperature) and cooling (11).
Aseptic filling into flexible bags, with a capacity of up to 1,500 l (12).
HOT BREAK is a method where in tomatoes/selected fruits are heated by passing through asteam heated tubular heater. This method gives better yield of pulp having higher viscositywithout being separated into juice & pulp. This process also kills microorganism.
COLD BREAK is a method where tomatoes are not heated to get the pulp. The pulp obtainedthrough Cold Break process is of lower quality when compared to pulp obtained by Hot Break.
End product could be stored either in tin packing or in aseptic bags of 200 kg. For the purposesof our feasibility study, we recommend aseptic packing in the bags of 200 kg because ofinvolvement of cost factor, storing capacity and other allied factors.
As regards the end use, there is no hard and fast rule for hot process or cold process. Generally,hot process is preferred as it gives a better aroma, better yield and is in use for production ofprocessed product by the Industry. Hot-Break is considered a better method because it givesbetter yield and aroma.

China is the leading exporter of tomato paste followed by Italy, Spain and Turkey. Italy is notonly the top exporter but it is also the top importer of tomato paste. It imports a big quantity fromChina, re-packs the paste and sells most to Africa and Middle East.
Competition has intensified as world exports of fresh tomatoes from key suppliers have beenincreasing in recent years. It is noteworthy that some of the major exporters of fresh tomatoes arealso major importers. Over the last decade, China’s exports of tomato products have grownimmensely.
b) World Tomato Paste Import
While the leading importers of the tomato paste are Germany, Italy, England, Japan and France.These countries have imported approximately US$ 500 million paste in 2003. As per theinternational figures, there has been growth of 20% -25% in tomato paste consumption.Tomato/Fruits processing industry is one of the largest growing industries in the world due to theconsumption habits and life style.
Potential Markets
Local Market:
According to estimates, about 95% of the indigenous tomato based processed products (puree,paste, pulps, jams, jelly and juices) are sold in the local market. The proposed project has verywide market for processors, hotel industry and retail sellers of tomato paste.

Food processors like Mitchell’s Fruit, Shezan International, Ahmed Foods, Shangrila Foods,
Rafhan Best Foods, National Foods, Tops Fruit, and Salman Food
Hotels like PC, Avari, Holiday Inn, Shelton, Marriot etc.
Fast Food / Chinese Restaurants like McDonald, Pizza Hut, KFC, Salt & Pepper etc.
Working women / Households
It is gathered that Food processors are major consumers of tomato paste in the country. Someof these companies meet their requirements (fully or partially) through in-house production oftomato paste/pulp while others depend on the following outside sources:
1. Import from paste manufacturing countries
2. Local cottage industry paste manufacturers
Tomato Paste Imported in Pakistan
“Trade Competitiveness Map” of International trade Center Geneva Switzerland,Pakistan reports tomato paste imports in Pakistan over the last five years as follows:
Years 2005-06 2004-05 2003-04 2002-03 2001-02US $ (000) 1,450 1,040 469 490 354
Note: As per the organization (ITC), the reported data is discrepant up-to the extent of 26%. asper the independent sources of the organization as Pakistan’s reported import of tomato pasteis not reported completely and actual is on the higher side. The above data is after removal ofdiscrepancy.
Based on the above data, it is concluded that demand of tomato paste in Pakistan is increasingat rapid growth rate.
Tomato Paste Produced by Cottage Industry:
There are some individual / cottage industry units working in Pakistan which are makingtomato paste/pulp and selling it to re-packaging companies which add different additives likevinegar, sugar, salt and spices to make specialized retail products such as ketchup, sauces andjuices. The supply is not sufficient and of desired quality. The yield of cottage industry
Feasibility study for Tomato Past Plant
19 PAKISTAN HORTICULTURE DEVELOPMENT & EXPORT BOARD
supplies is low. One kg paste of the proposed plant will be equal to about 2.8 kg of the tomatopaste produced by the cottage industry.
The tomato paste so purchased is of lower brix and quality which gives low yield in ketchupprocess. Its price range is Rs. 25- 35/kg. Interestingly, due to un-availability of thetomato/paste (at economical price), some people use pulp of other materials like carrots andpumpkins by mixing it with 15 – 20% tomato paste.
Retail Supply of Tomato Paste:
As stated earlier, major portion of the produce is sold as intermediary product and only a smallportion is processed and sold as tomato paste in the retail market. Only the leading foodprocessors like Mitchell have branded products in the market while imported paste is also soldon leading Departmental Stores. Size of this market segment is estimated at 100-200 MT perannum. Due to restricted size of this market, the study has been based on bulk packing.
Local Market Demand Development:
Local demand can be created for the sale of tomato paste. In Pakistan tomato is an importantingredient of our food. Especially all the continental food stuff is made of fresh tomato. Mostof the time, around 4 -6 months during the year, tomato becomes very expensive. It rangesfrom Rs. 35 to 120 per Kg. During this period, tomato paste can replace the tomato for thecooking ingredient. One kg of tomato paste is as good as 5 Kgs of fresh tomato.
Current & Future Demand in Local Market:
Establishment of a tomato paste plant in the country can significantly reduce the dependenceof local ketchup industry / hotels on imported paste and thus save valuable foreign exchange.The paste is currently being imported mainly from China, Iran and Turkey. Around 2400 MTof tomato paste was imported during the year 2005-2006.
The current estimated consumption of tomato paste/pulp in the country is around 4,000-4,500
tons as detailed below:
Food Processing Industry = 3,000-3,200 MT
Hotels & Restaurants = 800-1,000 MT
House Hold = 200 – 300 MT
The demand for tomato paste in near future is expected to increase at around 15% per annum.

In the local market, tomato paste is available at whole sales level but in small bottle and tinpacks. The whole sales market rate for the tomato past is as follows:
1. 1 Kg Packing Rs.80 – Rs. 1202. 500Gms Rs. 55- Rs. 70 3. 450 Gms Rs. 30- Rs. 454. 300 – 330 Gms Rs. 25 – Rs. 40
Export Market:
There is great potential of tomato paste in Afghanistan, Middle East, Far East, EuropeanCountries, USA etc. As per the latest survey of Afghanistan Investment Support Agency(AISA) in 2006-07, currently there is a huge demand for tomato paste, Jams, Jellies,marmalades products. In the recent years the Afghani culture and eating habits of people arechanging. Local demand for fruit juices is booming, but presently juices and tomato paste arebeing imported. Market research indicates that there is a market of USD 16-22 million for fruitjuices and USD 8-16 million in tomato paste. Pakistani Investors in the food and beverageprocessing sector can capitalize on this large and adjacent consumer market.
6. PLANT & MACHINERY
There are no local manufacturers which have experience of manufacturing tomato paste plants.Secondly, the plant & equipment for food industry is to be made from special steel. Therefore,the project is based on imported machinery. Imported Plants of Italian, Chinese and Indian originare available. The detail on the machinery is annexed.
Government has exempted plant and machinery, operated by power of any description as animported or purchased locally by a registered person to be used for the manufacture of taxablegoods by the registered person on the basis of certain requirements. The exemption policy hasbeen notified in the SRO 987 (1)/1999 dated August 31, 1999. Further exemption is alsoavailable in respect of Income Tax & Sales Tax at the time of import with a view to start thetaxable activity after the trial run. There is no period bar to start the production.
Plant Utilization:
For Tomato Paste/Pure, the installed production capacity is to be kept idle for seven (7) monthsin a year. In order to run the operations for the whole year, the only way out of this dilemma isdiversification, in which, other fruit products can replace tomato during those idle months.
