Anemia in Peru is a problem that affects 24.8% that representing more than 8 million people (OMS, 2022). This problem is associated with malnutrition, which inevitably generates a negative impact on their cognitive, psychomotor, and nervous evolution. To address this problem, an innovative production of muffins fortified with Tenebrio Molitor flour is proposed, which not only helps combat childhood anemia but also improves nutrition in people with nutritional deficiencies thanks to its high protein content. In addition, these muffins can be beneficial for athletes and environmentally conscious people seeking healthy food. Thus, the business model includes its commercialization, whose tests with users, operations plan, cash flows, among others, confirm that the business model is feasible and viable. In this way, the business model with an investment of S/. 637,556 will generate a projected NPV of S/ 6’988,379 over five years, as well as a social NPV of S/ 1 ́527,852 over five years. Additionally, it aligns with SDGs 2, 12, and 13, with an IRS of 50%, 36%, and 25%, respectively, as the use of Tenebrio Molitor as an alternative protein source promotes sustainability in food production and contributes to reducing the carbon footprint. In summary, this business model is not only financially profitable but also offers an important solution to a public health problem and is sustainable and socially responsible.
