I. SUMMARY208-3This profile envisages the establishment of a plant for the production of bee hive framewith a capacity of 2,000 pieces per annum.The present demand for the proposed product is estimated at 42,420 pieces per annum.The demand is expected to reach at 76,396 pieces by the year 2020.The plant will create employment opportunities for 18persons.The total investment requirement is estimated at about Birr 1.81 million, out of which Birr90,000 is required for plant and machinery.The project is financially viable with an internal rate of return (IRR) of 16 % and a netpresent value (NPV) of Birr 476,820 discounted at 8.5 %.II.PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONModern bee keeping equipment comprises of beehives, Bee smoker, Queen Extractor, Waxpress Honey extractor and protective clothing, etc. In this study only moveable frame ofLangs froth hive is considered, as this is the most demanded by modern bee deeper toreplace the old traditional beehives.In moveable-frame hives, the bees construct comb in frames which contain an embossedsheet of beeswax foundation which serves as a “pattern” to ensure straight, centered combsin the frames. These hives are constructed so that there is a bee space between the framesthemselves and between the frames and the box holding them.Communicating hive boxes can be stacked one above another, and that the queen can beconfined to the lowest chamber (brood), by means of a queen extruder. In this way, theupper chambers (called supers) can be reached only by the workers and therefore containonly honeycomb. This made hive inspection and many other management practice
