SECTION I: The product
1a | The innovation potential of this product is related to:
Technology-driven innovation (under the influence of the development of science – the market is not ready for the product)
|
New technology for traditional milk fat dairy product is innovation which helps to get fife and high quality product. Currently, all these products on the market are produced on the traditional production manner which has some risk steps and results in products with great variations in quality. |
1b | What added value for end-users does the product hold? • higher quality • Better technical characteristics • Other … |
Produce safe and high and standardize quality product with sensory properties like to traditionally made product. Developed production procedure allows getting product with at an affordable price. Remaining milk after this production, due to increased safety level has a great potential for production of various dairy products, which enormously increase traditional milk fat dairy product production efficiency when compared to traditional production procedure. |
1c | What is the Unique Sales Proposition of the potential product? |
Detailed comment
Safe and high quality and standardized product with long shelf life has higher value than traditional made product. Better utilization of remaining milk increases the production efficiency. |
