Summary

We first estimated the revenues and costs across the supply chain for comparison of the four scenarios taken up for this study. For the calculations, we started with the retailer selling 1 metric tonne (MT) of kinnow and then go upstream from the retailer to the aggregator and identify the quantity sold, operational costs, revenues and spoilage at each level - retailer, distributor and aggregator to make this one 1 MT of retail possible in Bangalore. Next, we estimated the profitability for the retailer, distributor, transporter and aggregator and also calculated the payback period for the cold-chain investment used in the intervention scenarios.
