Wokha's orchards produce large pineapple, passion-fruit and banana surpluses that rot in peak season for want of processing; a fruit pulp-juice-concentrate unit absorbs the glut into shelf-stable SKUs that ship year-round to beverage and bakery buyers.

Wokha is a serious horticulture district, and surplus during peak harvest is severe. This unit builds on the district's banana, ginger and passion fruit belt, washing, pulping and pasteurising raw passion fruit into juice and into aseptic pulp and concentrate that Northeast beverage makers, bakeries, hotels and restaurants can store and use off-season. Aromatic Naga passion fruit and pineapple give the product a genuine origin story for D2C jars too.
The hard parts: short, sharp harvest windows force tight scheduling; pasteurisation and cold-chain to the mainland are expensive and must be designed in; and FSSAI shelf-life validation takes time. Concentrate and aseptic pulp travel far better than fresh juice, so lead with those. Buyers are juice and squash brands, bakeries, ice-cream and dessert makers, and a small premium D2C line for the frontier-fruit narrative.
