Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Seasonal Mango Supply
Mango availability is limited to a few months; plan buffer stock and alternative sourcing to avoid production halts.
Quality Consistency
Variations in mango ripeness affect pulp quality; implement strict QC protocols and supplier audits.
Regulatory Compliance
Must obtain FSSAI food safety license, environmental clearance, and comply with packaging regulations.
Market Price Volatility
Pulp prices can fluctuate with mango yield; hedge through forward contracts or diversify product mix.
Competition from Established Brands
Large FMCG players dominate the market; differentiate via organic certification or unique flavor blends.
