1 INTRODUCTION
This profile envisages the establishment of a plant for the production of Laundry Soap, Toilet Soap
and Liquid detergent with a capacity of 720, 720 and 1080 tons per annum respectively in Assella
Town. Both Soap and Liquid detergent is extensive used in households, guest houses, hotels,

3
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

canteens, hospitals, schools, higher institutions, offices, etc. and at all community level, as a general
cleaning agent and Sanitary services.

The country`s requirement of Soap and detergents is largely met through import. The present (2016
G.C) demand for soap and detergents is estimated about 47400 tons while the local factories produce
only about 27,000. The demand for Soap and detergents is projected reaching 55,300 tons and 67,500
tons by the years 2020 and 2025, respectively.

The manufacture of soaps and detergents consist of a broad range of products. The principal forms of
products are bars, liquids and powders.

The manufacture of soaps involves the reaction of fats and oils with inorganic water soluble bases, this
process is also called saponification. Glycerin is also produced in the process. The resulting products
from the above process are separated and dried through vacuum driers to form dry soap pellets. In
the final step, the dry soap pellets are passed in a line mixer where fragrance and colorants are
added. The resulting mixture is then extruded and cut into bars.

For the manufacture of solid detergents, dry and liquid ingredients are combined into slurry, or thick
suspension, heated and pumped into a tower where is it sprayed under high pressure to produce small
droplets. The droplets fall through a current of hot air, forming hollow granules when they dry. The
granules are then sieved to achieve uniform size. Other heat sensitive ingredients may be added after
these processes.

The principal raw materials required for liquid detergent are fat or oils (blended or alone), caustic soda,
sodium chloride, fillers like sodium silicate, talc, soda ash, Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfuric Acid (LABSA),
urea, perfume, caustic soda and colorant. Caustic soda can be obtained locally while the other raw
materials have to be imported.

The total investment cost of the project including working capital d u r i n g i n i ti a l y e a r is


estimated at Birr 15,000,000.00 million. From the total investment cost the highest share ( B i r r
8 , 7 5 7 , 4 9 5 . 0 0 ) i s i n i ti a l w o r k i n g c a p i t a l cost which is raw material purchase followed by fixed
Asset establishment(machinery and vehicle) birr 5,269450.00) capital and the rest Birr 97,3055.00
operating cost.

The project can create employment for 55 persons. The establishment of such factory will have a
foreign exchange saving effect to the country by substituting the current imports. The project will also

4
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

create forward linkage with the service sector such as hotels, restaurants and hospitals and back ward
linkage with the chemical manufacturing sub sector and also generates income for the Government in
terms of tax revenue and payroll tax.

The initiators have formed a separate legal entity called “BNY TRADING PLC. SOAP AND DETERGENT
PRODUCTION PLANT.” The initiators hope to attract an outside equity investor and use the invested funds
to purchase specialized, high-quality, imported processing equipment that will enable them to produce
and package world-class Soap and Detergent products to be sold through both wholesalers and retailers
in the Ethiopia. The preparatory stage has been completed, and practically all key aspects have been
worked out by the initiators. They have a production site (Plant building store and other facilities) rented
from Chilalo Food Complex and they will purchase and install processing machines and related
equipment.

2.1 LOCATION, INFRASTRUCTURE AND PREMISES REQUIRED


2.1.1 Location

Tiyo district is one of administrative units located in northwestern central part of Arsi zone. The district
shares boundary line with Digelu and Tijo district in the south and south east, Hetosa district in the east,
Ziwaya Dugda district in the West and north west and Munesa district in the south. The total area of the
2
district is 665km and it has 21 administrative units of which 18 are farmers associations and 3 urban
administrative units. Asella is the capital of the district and located at 175km from Finfinne and 75km
from Adama. It is found on the main road to Bale and where the proposed project is situated in this City
(Assella), industrial zone.

The following Figure: shows the location of Request place.

Assella Town

2.2 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS


2.2.1 Climate
The district is divided into four ecological zones, namely high land (Dega) cover 31.7%, Mid-altitude
(weina Dega) 42.5%, the temperate highland (Wirch) 20.1% and the low land (kola) 5.7%. The district
has a tropical heavy and erosive rainfall as well as cool to moderate climate. The annual means of
o
temperature ranges from 15 to 22 c and the mean annual rainfall ranges from 900 to 1100mm. The
rainfall pattern is bimodal which are short rainy season (Belg) and long rainy season (Meher). The
duration of Belg rainy season is from November to April and for Meher season from June to September.

2.2.2 Wind

The generally dominant wind direction in the dry seasons in North east to South east, during the rainy
seasons it is Southwest to Northeast. The mean annual wind velocity calculated over ten years (1990 to
1999) is about 2-3m/s with a slight increase in Meker, the transition period between the wet seasons.
Generally, the wind speed at Adama is very high during summer months, in ten years period the
maximum wind speed recorded was about 10m/sec.

7
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

2.2.3 Topography

Undulating plain, hills, rift valley escarpment, Welkesa valley and mountain peak of Chilalo characterize
the topography of the district. The altitude of the district ranges from 1500 to 4105m. The highest peak
is Chilalo Mountain (4005m) in the district. The elevation of the district gradually reduces from Chilalo
mountain peak toward the West low land, to Rift valley. The district has a tropical high land climate
characterized by heavy and erosive rainfall with long wet season.

2.2.4 Drainage

The perennial rivers and springs of the district are Ketar, Kulumsa, Gonde, Dosha and Walkesa. All the
rivers originated from Chilalo Mountain and drained to the lake Ziway. The major uses of these rivers are
for drinking water, both modern and traditional irrigation activities on Kater River and Dosha Spring.
Gonde, Qulumsa and Walkessa are the most important rivers for waste disposal sites of Assella town
and Asella Malt Factory.

2.2.5 Soils
Concerning the soil types of the district there are two predominant types of soils, namely Chromic and
Pellic vertisols with texture ranging from black clay to loamy clay. The black clay soil constitutes 80%, red
clay soil 15% and loamy clay 5% of the total area of the district. The fertility status of the soil ranges
from fairly good to good, but has a limitation due to water lodging susceptibility to water erosion.

2.2.6 Vegetation

The Vegetation types of the district are divided into natural and man-made. Juniperus procera,
Podocarpus, Acacia trees and Hagenia Abyssinia are the major type of natural vegetation while
eucalyptuses tree is the most common type of manmade vegetation. However, presently, the forest
coverage of the district is declined due to clearing/cutting of trees for the expansion of farmland, fuel
woods, construction purposes and the like. Of the total area of the district, about 3939 hectares is
covered by vegetation of which 1940 hectar (49 %) are natural vegetation

2.2.7 Wildlife

The diversified climate conditions and topography of the district can provide a range of natural
environment consisting of various types of wildlife. But the indiscriminate cutting of natural forests
made to decrease the number and species of wild animals. The existing major types of wild animals in

8
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

the district are Hyena, Tiger, bushbuck, Zebra, Leopard and Colobus Monkey and Karkaro. There are no
national park, game reserve and sanctuaries in the district.

2.3 SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITION


2.3.1 POPULATION

Based on the 1994 Population and Housing Census Report of the Central Statistics Authority on Oromia
region, the estimated population of the district was 94968 in 1997E.C, of which 7.8% is living in rural
and 92.2% are living in the urban area, indicates high degree of urbanization because the capital of the
zone, Asella is found in this district account about 92.2% urban population of the district. From the
total population of the district, about 50% are females, which is 52% for urban and 30% for rural areas.
Excess female population in the town indicates high female rural to urban migration. (OFEDB)

2.3.2 Social Livelihood

The Livelihood of the peoples around the project area is primarily bases on agriculture and to some
extent on livestock, and daily laborers and employee in many industries as there are various industries in
the project area.

2.3.3 Agriculture

In Tiyo district there were 4 modern and 4 traditional irrigation sites in 1995 E.C known by producing
cereals, pulse, Root crops, Vegetables, Fruits, Peppers & sugar cane. Under modern irrigation schemes,
about 558 hectares of lands were cultivated from which 23305 quintals of crops produced. Similarly
under traditional irrigation sites, about 81 hectares of lands were cultivated from which 7517 quintals of
crops produced. From both modern and traditional irrigation sites, about 2468 farmers/household
heads were benefited.

2.3.4 Livestock
The basic aim of livestock breeding is to satisfy the demand for dairy products, farm power, and source
of financial income and to be seen as prestige. In the district mixed agriculture is experienced i.e.,
livestock production as the main economic activity next to crop production. The low yielding capacity of
the local breeds enforces the farmers to increase the number of their livestock population. The number
and type of livestock population are indicated on the table below. The prevalent major livestock

9
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

diseases could be easily controlled although regular vaccination and drenching. Moreover, the Zonal
and/or Woreda agricultural office gives veterinary services to the livestock farmers in the district.

2.3.5 Poultry

Poultry farming, which is one of the most important sources of family income and food, is widely
practiced in the district though traditional ways the highest concentration farming. There is no
modern Poultry activity in the district. Shortages of feed, disease problems and poor management are
the main bottlenecks to the development of this sub-sector.

2.3.6 Industry

Tiyo district is more advantageous in industrial development than other districts of the Zone. In 1995,
there were about 74 small-scale industries employing 376 labor forces with a total capital valued at
about 4482018 million birr. Moreover, there is one government owned medium scale industry that is
Asella Malt Factory in the district. Even if food processing small-scale manufacturing industries
account for large proportion, there are other types of small-scale industries in the district. For detail
see the table below.

2.4 LAND REQUIRED AND USE PLAN


The envisaged project will be no more land required and the plant will be installed on previously
constructed building on 3000m2.

2.5 THE ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT


The envisaged project deemed to contribute to the economic development of the country in
general and to the Assella Town in particular in the following ways:

2.5.1 Source of Employment

One of the problems that our country currently faced is unemployment. Therefore, the objective
of our government is working on tackling the problem of unemployment either through creating
self-employment or employment in private investor. Hence, the envisaged factory deemed to
contribute somewhat to solve the problem of unemployment of the Town. Upon completion, the
project assumed to generate employment opportunities for about 55 individuals both on
permanent and temporary workers up on starting its operation.

10
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

2.5.2 Source of Government Revenue

To redistribute income, the government collects different forms of taxes from different business
undertakings and individuals as income tax. Among the different forms of taxes, business income
taxes are collected from undertaking business activities. Therefore, the project will serve as
sources of revenue for the country.

2.5.3 Source of Supply for sanitary and hygienic of the community

The project under discussion will produce different Laundry Soap, Toilet soap and liquid detergent
which will play a complementary and supplementary role to social welfare.

3 MARKET STUDY AND PLANT CAPACITY

3.1 MARKET DEMAND POTENTIAL


3.1.1 Past Supply and Present Demand
Laundry tasks are becoming easier with modern cleaner products. Washing clothes in water even with
agitation provided by hand or by machine will remove some but not all stains, dirt and particular soils.
Water alone cannot remove soils that are not water soluble, and water doesn’t have the capability to
keep removed soils suspended. Laundry soaps are therefore used in washing clothes and retreating
heavy soils or stains prior to washing

The supply of soaps in Ethiopia is both from domestic production and import. The average import of
soaps is about 57% while the domestic production covers 43%. Among the imported products, Indonesia
is the main supplier of soaps to the Ethiopian market followed by South Korea.

Since the total supply is dominated by imported products, at the right quality level and packaging there
is abundant demand for a new project to capture a reasonable share of the market.

In the past years the annual average imported soaps volume was 21,560 tons with an annual average
growth rate of 5%. On the other hand a linear trend equation on the same series reveals:

Y = 472.91X + 18,959

Estimating the current demand through applying the average annual growth rate and linear trend
approaches resulted in a current effective demand at 22,640 tons and 24,160 tons respectively. In this
study however a conservative estimate of 22,638 tons is considered as the current effective demand
unsatisfied by the present local production of soap detergent. Annual supply of Soap is displayed in
Table 3.1.

3.1.2 Demand Projection

Laundry soap and detergent are an everyday use product applied for washing. The low level standard of
living prevailing in the country was the main reason for the associated low level of soap consumption.
Economic development and the rise in income inevitably will lead to better suitable livelihood and usage
of soaps.

The demand for laundry soaps and detergent although basically depend on the population and other
substitute products; income also is detrimental for the proper and frequent usage of soaps by the
majority of the low income group of population. The change in the housing patterns of urban dwellers
from traditional outdoor kitchens and toilets to better water tapped kitchen and toilets will have a direct
impact on the demand for soaps. In addition to this, the rural population consumes more and more
laundry soaps with a growth in income.

In general the demand for soaps and detergent is related to the growth in income. Therefore the
estimation of the demand gap left out by the domestic suppliers, is made based on 8.7% annual gross
domestic product growth rate achieved in 2005 E.C and demand projected for Soap and Detergent can
displayed in table 3.2 below.

3.1.3 Pricing and Distribution

By considering the average imported price of detergent and adding costs of duty and other import
related expenses, a factory gate price of 32,000.00 and 62,500.00 birr per ton for Soap and liquid
detergent raw materials is recommended respectively.

Currently, the retail price of domestically produced laundry soaps ranges from Birr 2.00 to Birr 3.00
per 240 gm. Considering the minimum market price of Birr 11.00 per 250 gm. and allowing 30 per cent
for wholesale and retail margin, the envisaged plant is expected to sell its product at Birr 9 per 250 gm.
for laundry soap, 20 gram of Toilet soap at 1.80 to 2 birr and considering the above selling principle
1.26 birr per 20 gm. and again 1liter of liquid detergent sold at 25-30 birr at retail and considering 35
per cent for retail and wholesale, 23 per liter.

14
BNY TRADING SOAP AND LIQUID DETERGENT MANFUCTURING PLANT

By considering the average imported price of S o a p detergent and adding costs of duty and
other import related expenses, a factory gate price of Birr 32,450.00 per ton is recommended. The
product can be classified as a service item. The end users of the product are numerous and widely
distributed throughout the country. Hence, the factory has to appoint a number of distributors in
different locations of the country. The distributors will sell the products to the retailers to reach the
final consumers of the product.

As a new entrant in the market an attractive brand and packaging should be developed and supported
by visible advertisement like TV and posters. Plant Capacity and Production program

3.2 PRODUCTION CAPACITY


Based on the demand projection indicated above, the proposed plant will have production capacity of
1440 tons of Soap (Laundry and Toilet) and 1080 tons Liquid detergent per annum. The unit is
envisaged to operate under three shift working each 8 hours a day for 300 days per year.

3.3 PRODUCTION PROGRAM


In order to develop the operator’s skill in production and quality control, it is vital to have a gradual
capacity buildup. In addition to this, a period is required to penetrate into the market. Hence, it is
assumed that the plant will go into full capacity operation in four years’ time starting with 60% capacity
in the first year and progressively developing to 75%, 90% and 100% in the second, third and fourth year
respectively. The production program of the envisaged plant is given in Table 3.3 below.

3.5 PRODUCTION PROCESS

3.5.1 Laundry and Toilet Soap

The raw materials are melted slowly in a vessel. In order to eliminate the moisture, vacuum
dehydration process will be carried out at a certain temperature. Then bleaching earth is added and
the solution will be stirred vigorously. Fats & oils separated from the bleaching earth are pumped to
saponification kettle and caustic soda solution of a required concentration is then added in small
quantity at a time. The soap charged passes through different stage en-route to complete
saponification. When the saponification process is completed, a concentrated salt solution is
added to separate the lye. The liquid soap from the tank is heated and pumped to the vacuum spray-
drying unit.

The soap powder from the dryer is removed by a set of scrapers and directed to the plodder. Noodles
from the plodder are cut into pieces. The pieces are given further homogenization and together with
some additives, pressed into bars. The piece of soap is finally cut to the desired size by the cutter and
are then stamped and wrapped or packed and ready for distribution.

3.5.2 Liquid Detergent

The process of manufacture liquid detergent consists of neutralization of Linear Alkaline Benzene
Sulfuric Acid (LABSA). Measured quantity of LABSA is taken in stainless steel kettle and diluted with
known quantity of water with continuous stirring. The ingredients are blended in simple mixers fitted
