Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Seasonal Raw Material Risk
Jackfruit availability peaks between March and June; securing year-round supply contracts with multiple farmers is critical to avoid production gaps.
Shelf-Life and Storage
Products are moisture-sensitive; improper drying or packaging can lead to mold and recalls. Cold chain and humidity control are non-negotiable.
Competition from Informal Sector
Unorganized players sell unbranded jackfruit products at lower prices; differentiation through branding and food safety certifications is essential.
