The cost of any cold store (Cold Storage Project Cost in Bangladesh) depends on the capacity, type of products you want to store, types of building you want to make, etc.
Suppose for calculation, you want to make a cold store for potato preservation. The capacity of cold store will be (you want) 1000 metric tons. If you want to make a single story steel structure building for this cold store-
The Cold Storage Project Cost in Bangladesh may be as follows:
Cost Items | Amount in BDT |
Building Cost 10000sft@850 Tk | 85,00,000 |
Insulation Cost 30000 sft@300 tk. | 90,00,000 |
Machinery & Equipment | 165,00,000 |
Total | 3,40,00,000 |
For the cold store of capacity 5000 metric tons the cost may be 3.40×5=17 crore BDT.
This calculation is done in the year 2020, it is not fixed, can be changed over time, upon the building type, building design, building measurements.
Cold Storage Project Cost in Bangladesh: A Comprehensive Breakdown
In the realm of preserving spuds and other perishables, setting up a cold storage facility demands a meticulous consideration of various factors. From the capacity to the structure, each element plays a vital role in determining the overall cost. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
Capacity Consideration
When envisioning a cold storage venture specifically tailored for safeguarding potatoes, sizing matters. Let’s say you’re eyeing a capacious storage space of 1000 metric tons. But remember, size isn’t just about numbers; it’s about the meticulous preservation of your produce.
Building the Foundation
For a structure to stand the test of time, the foundation must be solid. Picture a single-story steel edifice sprawling across 10,000 square feet. At a rate of 850 Bangladeshi Taka per square foot, the building cost totals to a neat sum of 85,00,000 BDT.
Insulating the Investment
Insulation serves as the silent guardian against the whims of temperature. With 30,000 square feet earmarked for this purpose, at 300 Taka per square foot, the insulation costs soar to 90,00,000 BDT. It’s the invisible armor ensuring your produce stays crisp and fresh.
Machinery & Equipment: The Backbone
Every operation needs its arsenal, and for a cold storage facility, machinery and equipment are the unsung heroes. With an investment of 165,00,000 BDT, you secure the gears that keep your storage humming with efficiency.
Crunching the Numbers
When you sum up the costs, the grand total for your 1000 metric ton cold store stands at a formidable 3,40,00,000 BDT. That’s a figure worthy of attention, and it underlines the seriousness of preserving produce in a nation like Bangladesh.
