Value-chain gaps

Money this district loses today

Raw output sold cheap, value added elsewhere — each gap below is an opening for a local business.

Guava: raw fruit → pulp / juice / jelly / dried slices

Unverified
Raw 85%Processed 15%

Sheopur's ODOP guava is sold raw and highly perishable, gluting and crashing at harvest with heavy spoilage before it reaches a buyer. Guava pulp, juice, jelly and dried slices command several times the raw-fruit rate and ship shelf-stable to beverage and confectionery buyers. A local pulping and bottling unit converts a perishable glut into branded, year-round products.

Growth signal

India's packaged fruit-pulp and juice market is growing at strong double-digit rates with rising urban consumption.

Mustard: raw seed → cold-pressed oil / branded edible oil

Unverified
Raw 85%Processed 15%

Sheopur's mustard is sold largely as raw seed to traders, exporting the crushing margin from the belt despite local expelling capacity. Cold-pressed (kachi ghani) mustard oil and oilcake command several times the raw-seed rate and reach branded grocery and feed channels. Branding and packaging local kachi-ghani oil keeps the processing value with the district's growers and mills.
