This study evaluates the commercial, technical, economic, financial and social viability of the installation of a maca and kiwicha flake processing plant for the US market. The demand for the project for the first year is 1 106 243 cereal cases in 12 oz presentation. The target audience is made up of people from 23 to 40 years old belonging to the NSE A, B and C. Likewise, the unit price of the cereal was established at $ 2.5 of International Commercial Terms (INCOTERM) Cost, insurance and freight (CIF), the direct customer being the importer who at the same time it has the role of broker, which will be in charge of the distribution. Regarding the location of the plant, it is located in Lima in the district of Callao, mainly due to its proximity to the port, which was determined using the factor ranking method. The production process consists of the following stages: sifting, mixing, extrusion, drying, cooling, packaging in bag, packaging in unitary box and packaging box of 40 units; being maca and kiwicha flour the raw material of the process. Likewise, the plant has an installed capacity of 781,443 tons per year, which was defined by the extruded activity that is the bottleneck of the process. The total area proposed for the production plant is 929.48 m2. The project investment amounts to S/ 4.004.640 and has a financing structure of 40% debt and 60% of its own contribution. Regarding the debt, it will be financed by the Banbif bank for 10 years at an ASD of 6.91% for long-term loans to large companies. On the other hand, the economic and financial evaluation of the project is carried out. The economic flow reveals a TIR of 17,08% with a recovery period of 8,93 years, while the financial flow a TIR of 22,81% with a recovery period of 6,52 years. Finally, it was determined that the social impact of the project, through the product-capital ratio, generates S/14,00 of added value for each sun invested, therefore the project will have a positive impact on the country's economy.
