Charcoal Business Investment Opportunities

Integrated coconut processing and trading venture based in Ampana, Central Sulawesi, which commenced operations approximately eight months ago, at the beginning of the year. - Currently, the business sources coconut shell charcoal from partner processors that use raw coconut shells supplied by a network of local farmers and collectors. - The company sells its output on a B2B basis to Indonesian collectors and PT/CV trading companies. - The business currently has 3 active buyers and 4 active suppliers. - The three founders collectively manage procurement, production coordination, and business development. - The planned project involves developing a 1,500 m² integrated coconut processing facility built around a Central Thermal Unit (CTU), featuring a twin-kiln pyrolysis and heat-recovery system. - The CTU will convert coconut shells into charcoal while recovering heat for copra drying. - The planned facility is designed to utilize mature coconuts across four primary products: copra, shell charcoal, cocopeat, and cocofiber, with minimal material waste. - The facility will target domestic collectors and industrial buyers, with potential for future exports. - Based on the financial projections, post investment, a full year of integrated operations is expected to generate approximately IDR 12.25 billion in revenue, with an estimated IRR of above 60% and a payback period of approximately 1.6 years. - Future expansion opportunities include downstream products such as virgin coconut oil (VCO), charcoal briquettes, and coconut water concentrate.
