The present study aims to determine the market, technological and economical feasibility for the installation of a production plant for extra virgin oil in sprinkler bottles for home consumption. This product will be extracted from the Hass avocado, widely produced in Peru, whose particular properties, such as the hardness of its husk, its long post-harvest life and its long list of health benefits, make it the ideal fruit for the extraction of extra virgin edible oil. Thanks to the fact that both the production and the consumption of the avocado itself, as well as the consumption of vegetable oils (such as olive oil) are increasing every year, a potential demand of 11,3 thousand tons of extra virgin avocado oil is calculated for the year 2020. After calculating market segmentation and participation, the demand for the project was found to be 12 656 boxes, this being the plant size. The break-even point was calculated at 4 768 boxes, showing that the project is feasible. Regarding the location of the plant, after performing the macrolocalization and microlocalization analysis, it was concluded that the most suitable location for the installation of the plant is the province of Huaral, in Lima, mainly due to its high production of avocado, as well as its proximity to the target market (Metropolitan Lima). It was determined that the appropriate production process will be the mechanical extraction by centrifugation, using the Alfa Laval system, widely used and very efficient both for the extraction of olive oil and for the avocado oil, of which the neck of bottle will be the manual process of peeling and ginning. Finally, a VNAE of S/ 791 347 and a VNAF of S/ 934 604 were determined, as well as an IRRE of 30% and a IRRF of 38%, which, given that the COK was calculated at 19,05%, shows that the project is feasible. The total investment of S/ 2 159 391 will be recovered after 3 and a half years of operation aproximately.
