Cassava roots are very rich in starch, and contain significant amounts of calcium
(50 mg/100g), phosphorus (40 mg/100g) and vitamin C (25 mg/100g).
PREPARATION PROCEDURES
Gari is a fermented, gelled and dehydrated food produced from fresh cassava. It is a
popular diet in Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana and in other West Africa's countries. The
consumption area even expands to Central Africa: Gabon, Cameroon, Congo Brazzaville
and Angola. (Issue 61 deals with the African market and international market of
Gari.) (Dr. B.M. Quenum, 2004)
Gari is a granulated, white or yellowish product - depending on production methods. It
has 10 to 15% moisture content that permits a long conservation (up to one year) period
in normal atmospheric conditions.
As exposed in previous deliveries, fresh cassava contains cyanhydric acid (HCN) that
should be eliminated from any product originating from cassava to render it fit for human
consumption. Depending on the production method (particularly traditional methods)
Gari could contains up to 20 mg / kg of HCN - against 43 mg / kg for fresh peeled
cassava. However, after one month of storage there is an only trace (2 mg / kg) of HCN.
( Dr. B.M. Quenum, 2004)
Caution: One should remark that a Gari sample that contains 30 mg / kg of HCN is
not proper for human consumption.
GARI:
It can be eaten as a snack with cold water on a very hot day, or cooked in hot
water to make a dough-like meal called Eba or Gari with delicious African
vegetable soups. It is a popular Ghanaian, Sierra Leonean and Nigerian food base.
Cassava is fermented to remove cyanide and produce flavors.

roasted to destroy enzymes and microorganisms, to drive off cyanide gas, and to
dry the product.
Uncontrolled Fermentation - incomplete detoxification and a bland product.
Too long a period - strong sour taste.
Both over- and under fermentation - affect the texture of the final gari
The granules must be roasted to about 80 ºC/175 ºF to achieve partial
gelatinization of the starch.
The product is hygroscopic (it absorbs moisture from the air) and should be
packed in airtight and moisture-proof bags, especially in areas of high humidity,
to prevent mold growth.
Production of Gari a staple cassava-based food that feeds much of southern Nigeria
on a farm in the Cross River state in southeastern Nigeria

DEMAND
Gari is very popular among West Africans; the demand for this food both within and
outside the African region is soaring. It’s a food many eat almost every day. The
interaction with the African community President- Sarawak sort to see how this product
can be in steady supply here in Sarawak. The president has approved that the Independent

celebration coming this October 1st 2009 will be the avenue to let all Nigerians in
Sarawak know the place to get Gari at low price while in Malaysia, and that assignment
was given to me the welfare coordinator for African community here in Sarawak.
Although many produce and sell it in large quantities in Africa, the possibilities of
growing it in Asia have been ignored.
PRODUCT QUALITY
Gari is rich in dietary fiber and complex starch; it is source of low GI carbohydrate that
ensures slow release of energy over a long period of time.
Gari is creamy-white granular flour with slightly fermented flour and a slightly sour taste
made from fermented, gelatinized fresh cassava tubers.
Gari is widely known and consumed in Nigeria and West African countries. It iscommonly consumed either by being soaked in cold water with sugar, coconut, roasted
groundnuts, dry fish, or boiled cowpea. It has a shelf-life of six months or more.
TARGET MARKETS
Africans
Cereal lovers (which could be from any race)
In Sarawak where there are over 3000 of Africans comprising of students of INTI,
Swinburne, limkokwin etc and other workers and business men in Miri, Bintulu, Penang
and many others within Sarawak. This consumer relies on African importers who send it
and sell it at a high price. E.g. African Heritage and few firms in Kuala Lumpur.
Currently there is no Gari manufacturing company in South-Asian region this provides
FASI Ventures the opportunity to produce here in Sarawak, Malaysia.
AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS
This region has everything in place for the successful production, marketing and
distribution of this food staple. Through dedication, passion and committed directors
with quality managerial skills and experience in this industry, FASI is will be able to

29
execute this exciting opportunity to meet the needs of Africans in this region by
providing their favorite food even at their doorstep.
DISTRIBUTION
FASI will sell this product through supermarkets. By the end of the year it would sell
and distribute through its website. This will enable the company to have higher margins,
maintain a close relationship with customers and penetrate other regions outside
Malaysia. It will also sell through other retailers.
VALUE PROPOSITION
The customer will enjoy low cost such that the mount for a 1kg can get him 10kg
of a better quality.
We will add the product description on the packages.
With our enterprise resource planning system the customer can place order and
have it at the time he needs it. The customer can if place order ahead of time.
For customers that may want higher concentrated product can get it on demand
THE COMPETITIVE PRODUCT
For now FASI does not really have competitors as such but it has indirect competitors
producing similar product which is the wheat flour (Tanpung gandum).It is being used in
Malaysia as a substitute for Eba. African heritage is in this line of product but not
producing after the launch of our company (Gari) they will be one of our business
customers.
The difference we make is that we produce here in Sarawak as the raw material is
readily available. The cost of importation from Africa will be eliminated and thiswill allow us have reasonable margin to be able to offer a low price to our
potential customers.
The compelling reasons why customers need the product from us is that we have
we save them over 60% cost and it is available at any time they want it and for
any quantity.

Gari releases energy slowly to the body because of the processes taken in
production and very rich in dietary fiber, meaning that the hunger sustainability is
high.
REVENUE MODEL
FASI will work on generating revenues through
business to business (b2b)
business to consumer (b2c)
trade union models
The major reason why we will use the trade union for even our packaging is for the
fact that the Directors are not locals there is every tendency that the product will
suffer rejection. So we will just concentrate on perfecting our production and let the
problem of the distribution and marketing be laid off for a commission to the trade
union.
SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
Although FASI is entering its first year of operation, the product it is launching is not
‘new’ to its target market. It is a product that will be well received with excitement-
It is like something people have been waiting for. But marketing will be vital to
create awareness and for brand development, as well as building customer base.

4.3 MARKET NEEDS
There are about 7 million Africans living in Asia (About 3 million in China). This is seen
as a great opportunity-FASI is providing Gari (both white and yellow Gari) in different
size/packages to reach different customers (business and consumers) and meet their
needs.
4.3.1 MARKETING TRENDS
FASI stands at a very great advantage in producing Gari, an African staple food in a
Sarawak and at the same time market it both in the country and beyond. FASI
distinguishes itself from other importers who have to get the product from Africa and
market in Asia, which has made the food more expensive in Sarawak. FASI can sell it
less than others. With the influx of Africans to Sarawak on the rise, there will be an
increase in demand for Gari like never before. And apart from the general methods of
eating Gari as Eba or cereal, Nigerians in Diaspora are discovering new ways of eating
Gari; some are making deserts out of it.
4.3.2 MARKET GROWTH
In Sarawak with the increase in the number of Africans entering the state and increased
relationship between the locals and the immigrants and the south-Eastern Asia region
there’s been a tremendous growth in the food industry, because by scale of preference no
choice can be made to neglect food, irrespective of the economic challenges in the world.
This provides FASI a great opportunity to thrive and expand.
4.4 SWOT ANALYSIS
The following SWOT Analysis captures the key strengths and weaknesses within the
company and describes the opportunities and threats facing FASI.

6.0 CONTROL
The internal auditing will be done after every three months, then at the end of the year we
employ the services of the external audit. Despite that we get their regular advice due to
the retainnership agreement which costs us RM150 monthly different from the fees paid
on any job executed by the auditing firm.
