What is a herbal collection business and how to organize it. Organization of production and sale of medicinal herbs and infusions

Nowadays a lot of people are looking for ideas for their own business, and herbs and teas are becoming more and more popular, so every day dozens of people in Russia decide for themselves: “I’ll open my own business collecting and selling herbs,” because it’s so simple: “collect and sell!” and immediately begin to search on the Internet where they can donate herbs and, accordingly, find ours or similar sites.

Accordingly, we found a website and decided to call or write, and at the other end I will answer you in a sad voice, most likely with a refusal.

Why did I decide to share my experience on how to collect herbs?

Well, I receive calls with offers of cooperation every day and more than once, but the saddest thing is that even with the people with whom you agree to cooperate, out of 100 people, 30 will get to the point and within a month 29 of them will decide that this activity is not for them. As a result, out of 100 people, only one likes this activity after trying it. It turns out that a lot of time and effort is wasted. Do you need it?

In no case do I want to dissuade anyone from picking herbs, I just want to explain why this happens and reduce the number of your mistakes.

So the main reasons why the idea turns out to be unsuccessful for many. To do this, we need to consider several different groups people and reasons that led them to the idea of ​​a business collecting medicinal or tea herbs. I will call the groups by their own name, but I think it will be clear, perhaps you will recognize yourself.

We moved out of town and decided to open our own business.

Urban people are the largest and most hopeless group, in my opinion, they lived in the city all their lives and suddenly moved out of town or simply bought a dacha, they think that their area, since it is 10 km from the city, is environmentally friendly, since they were told so when selling a plot or house, and in general the new place is much greener than in the city! As a rule, thoughts about the environmental cleanliness of a new place of residence are just a delusion; there is no argument that the countryside is cleaner than the city, but it is still not enough to collect herbs.

Okay, let's leave the environment alone, anyway, the presence of a highway 100 meters away will not stop anyone, because once we have moved, we need to start mastering new types of activities! We go to the nearest clearing and start assembling, and it turns out that this is not a truck, it’s easy to play with the phone, in general, you need to work, and not like in the office, but to work, and then there are bedbugs, ticks and midges, I’m still silent about what else is needed know a lot and your head begins to look for a way out of the situation. Usually this solution is the population of the nearest village, according to many people who lived in the city, people in the village have nothing to do at all and they will happily work for them for pennies. Accordingly, the workers arrive quickly and voila! Problem solved! A newly-minted businessman sits relaxing at home, and the villagers work for him, showed a picture of a plant and ordered several bags of it to be brought in the evening, just like in a fairy tale, but the fairy tale ends in a few days, when the time comes to sell these herbs, then it will begin to become clear what the workers were I was told to bring parsnip herb, but they brought dill and you can’t complain because they look alike in the picture! The chicory was wrapped up at reception due to dirt, as it was easier for workers to pick it up on the side of the road, there is more of it there! And in a week they collected only 1000 rubles worth of Ivan-tea, since they collected it where there is almost none, and the advance received had to be spent on drink urgently and there was absolutely no time left for Ivan-tea, because quickly finding a hard-working worker in the village is not easier than in the city, everyone is busy with their own business, and in search of hack work, as a rule, people who do not like to work, but like to drink.

In general, we can talk about this category endlessly, the meaning will be the same: before you start leading, first do it yourself, the leaders in our country who are “not aware of what is happening” and without you are enough, here you need to work first of all yourself - this is the main difference between the village from the city.

Since ancient times, people have been treated with herbs. Medicinal plants were collected in autumn and summer and used year-round. Even in the 21st century, despite the abundance of drugs, herbal medicine remains a popular method of treating and maintaining health. This information Worth adopting for aspiring businessmen. After all, this view entrepreneurial activity year-round and profitable. The article will tell you how to make money on medicinal plants. It will also tell you how to properly collect and prepare herbs for sale and where to sell them in the future.

A farmer can grow anything

Let’s imagine a farmer who has his own plot, as a rule, he grew potatoes and corn all his life, but suddenly he got bored or he saw some interesting offer for herbs, for example our price list) and decided to plant fireweed on the entire plot, let’s say the farmer took into account that fireweed grows poorly on dry soils and his plot is suitable for him and he even took into account that since fireweed will grow well on his plot, then he will then uproot it for many years. I sat down, looked again at our admission price and imagined mountains of gold. Disappointment will come to him when he sees the limit of 30 kg that is set at the reception, and even they can wrap it up, since it is practically impossible to collect and dry the grass on an industrial scale with the exception of a few species and the market is full of them.

What do I mean by this? Collecting herbs on an industrial scale and qualitatively incompatible words in one sentence, because you are collecting for people! Well, if you forget about quality (after all, this is “business”, and the well-known principle of Russian business, unfortunately, is already becoming an integral part of our Motherland), then before planting I highly recommend finding an office in advance that will buy everything from you, usually these are pharmaceutical companies that produce dietary supplements or cosmetics. We are not your help here.

Looking for work

The third group of people who from time to time are tired of unscrupulous employers, shifts, or simply want to change their type of activity and start collecting plants. As a rule, everyone has little idea that this is not easy, that it is necessary to follow the rules of collection and hygiene, that before collecting it you still need to find it, etc. The problem is that people are looking for any job, no one thinks about whether they like it or not, and as a rule, after a few days or weeks they find another job and forget about herbalism.

Looking for a job is good! But try to look for a job you like, I understand perfectly well that in our time it’s difficult to simply find a job, let alone one you like, but try anyway, I can’t give you any other advice, because I just don’t know what to advise.

Family business

The rarest group is when the entire family or an individual member of it decided to start a business collecting herbs, and in this case the maximum number of successful starts is, as a rule, these are people who live in nature and are already familiar with the profession firsthand. But even here there are very neglected cases, for example, a family is engaged in collecting and selling herbs and everything is fine, but they are not familiar with hygiene and cleanliness, and the fact that it is unacceptable to dry goats’ herbs in a barn, if this barn is not combined with a dwelling. I once had the following dialogue with a herbalist, a simple Russian woman of about 45 years old, who has been preparing medicinal plants for many years:
Me: How can you sell such herbs?
Herbalist: what is it?
Me: but you can see with the naked eye that they are dirty.
Herbalist: well, those who don’t like it don’t have to buy, I don’t forcefully suggest it to anyone, after all.
Me: what if someone gets poisoned?
Herbalist: Well, my goats eat them and nothing is done to them, and in general, everything that is fresh with me is always eaten by the goats.
Me: and how many of your goats have died over the past 10 years?
Herbalist: well, a couple somewhere.
Me: why do you know?
Herbalist: Who knows, they probably got a lot drunk.

It was useless to continue further dialogue.

Instead of a total

It doesn’t matter who you are and what motivates you to learn how to make money through herbalism, remember one thing: it requires a love of cleanliness and hard work, a persistent desire to learn. This decision should not be spontaneous; first try preparing a couple of tea herbs for the year for yourself and your family, and then decide whether you like it or not. Well, and most importantly, conscience!

Well, the second part of the article is for those who have firmly decided to start harvesting herbs.

How to make money on herbs and certain plants?

Herbal medicine is becoming more popular every year. This is explained by the following: trust in the majority medicines falls, almost all medicines are expensive, herbs were treated in ancient times, there is trust in them, plants can be used for beauty and youth. However, not everyone understands herbs and knows how to properly prepare them for use. Therefore, the collection, preparation and sale of medicinal plants is good type business. In order to start engaging in such entrepreneurial activity you will need:

Study all types of plants that grow in nearby areas. To do this, you need to have a good understanding of herbs and poisonous plants. After all, people’s health and sometimes their lives depend on it.

Study of all poisonous plants, as well as those listed in the Red Book.

Permission to rent a plot where medicinal plants grow.

Preparation of appropriate documentation for the sale of herbs.

Purchase of special equipment.

It is worth saying that it is difficult to obtain permission to collect herbs in a certain area. I personally have not seen more than one collector with such permission and everyone simply collects herbs growing wild.

Documents you will need for work

To obtain a license to collect and process medicinal plants, you will need to obtain a license. To receive it you need to collect and present a list of documents. This list includes:

List of medicines that will be sold;

Charter and memorandum of association;

Protocol on the foundation of the enterprise;

A document confirming registration with the tax office;

Conclusion of the sanitary-epidemiological station.

Preparing everyone necessary documents will cost 2500 rubles. The cost of a license (declaration of conformity) is about 20,000 rubles. It should be said that you can get it in your hands only after a few months. This is if you do everything yourself.

Equipment for processing and drying plants

In the business of collecting, processing and selling plants, you can do without staff. However, it will not be possible to work without special equipment. You will need the following equipment:

Vibrating sieve (not necessary if only manual collection is carried out);

Grind (you don’t have to buy it if you’re using whole herbs);

Dryer (there are plants that cannot be dried naturally);

Packaging equipment (or at least packaging and labels).

It is also worth thinking about inviting specialists such as a pharmacist and herbalist to the production. They will advise clients and suggest which herbs should be collected.

Rules for collecting and preparing medicinal plants

Before you start collecting and selling plants, you need to take into account certain rules.

The first rule: you need to collect herbs away from the roads and industrial facilities.

Second: best time for collection in the morning after the dew has disappeared.

Third: dry herbs in the shade.

Fourth rule: if the plants are not frozen, they cannot be stored in bags.

Fifth: some plants lose soybean healing properties when freezing and when drying at temperatures above 40 degrees.

Sixth: For each plant there is a certain collection time, those. when it is most useful, usually this is the time of flowering for herbs and autumn and spring for roots, but there are exceptions everywhere. If you search a little on our website, you can find a herbal calendar for each month with pictures.

It is also worth remembering about dosages and that some types cannot be mixed together.

Where can you sell plants?

In addition to private individuals, medicinal plants can be left at some industrial points. For example: pharmacies, shops, herbal medicine shops, saunas, for the production of brooms. You can also sell herbs to healers or open your own outlet sales. Various phyto-firms are considered a good sales option. You can rent, but we are very picky). As well as various cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies. Indeed, nowadays many cosmetic products are prepared on a natural basis: plants and other ingredients. However, there are often necessary large quantities various herbs. And the prices there are not at all interesting.

Sale of medicinal plants, current and profitable business in the 21st century. Despite the huge availability of pharmacies and bio-supplements, people trust herbal medicine. And this method of treatment costs them less, but the quality is similar.

I hope I have laid out everything in as much detail as possible; naturally, it is difficult to indicate all the pitfalls in one article, but the main harm is all there.

All of the above is fiction and the invention of your computer, if you recognize yourself in the article, then it just seemed to you, drink tea and calm down!)

In ancient times, humanity engaged in two main activities that allowed them to survive in harsh conditions. We are talking about hunting and, of course, gathering. Later, people learned to cultivate the land, grow various crops (for example,) and domesticated numerous species of animals. But it all began with the collection of what nature itself offered to man. For some reason in modern world many people (including businessmen) completely forget about what nature still offers great amount a wide variety of products that literally lie under your feet. You just need to see them and collect them. What to do next - use it to your advantage or sell it to those who need it this product, this is up to you.

Today we will talk about business on. This is an ideal option for residents to own their own business. rural areas, as well as for city dwellers who have their own house in the village. In fact, this type of activity is one of the types of agricultural business, which we talk about quite often on the pages of our website. Collection medicinal herbs expands our understanding of agriculture, which is not at all limited to the cultivation and sale of vegetables, fruits and domestic animals. This also includes picking berries and mushrooms, as well as extracting birch sap (we will talk about these business ideas in subsequent publications).

How to organize a business collecting and selling medicinal plants?

Firstly, you must have a clear idea about certain medicinal plants, know where and when they can be collected in your region. After all, the same types of herbs in different regions(for example, in the north and in the south) “ripen” at different times. In addition, you should have a good knowledge of not only medicinal herbs, but also all other types of herbs that grow in your region. After all, it is quite possible that among them there are poisonous plants, hazardous to human health.

So that nothing bad happens, and your business only grows and develops, we advise you to stock up on thematic literature (fortunately, there is plenty of it on modern shelves) and study in detail the flora of your region.

The Forest Code of our country clearly states that the collection of food forest resources (which includes medicinal plants) for one’s own needs can be carried out freely and free of charge. In the case of entrepreneurial activity, you must obtain permission to rent a plot and collect medicinal herbs from the forestry agency of your region. To do this, the entrepreneur writes a statement indicating the intended collection location and listing the plant species to be collected. The Forestry Agency may either accept or reject your application, giving reasons. If the application is accepted, then all that remains is to sign the lease agreement, which specifies the total amount of payment for a certain period, as well as the procedure for making payments.

Also, be sure to ask which plants growing in your region are listed in the International Red Book. As a rule, collecting medicinal herbs in the habitats of rare flora representatives is prohibited. It’s better to find out all these nuances right away so as not to get into an unpleasant situation later.

You can collect medicinal plants either on your own or with the joint efforts of hired workers. The second option will significantly increase business volumes, but will require certain monthly expenses. By the way, this business is in some respects, since the collection of herbs is carried out in the summer and autumn months. But their implementation can be called a year-round business.

Herbs can be sold through several distribution channels. Firstly, these are reception points natural materials, which are probably available in your region. Secondly, these are pharmacies that purchase herbal infusions from the population. Thirdly, this is our own point of sale of medicinal plants. The last option is the most promising, but will require some additional knowledge, investments and hiring of appropriate specialists. You need to sell herbs and herbs to the public according to recipes. In addition, buyers, not knowing exactly what they need, often prefer to consult sellers. Therefore, you will probably need the help of herbalists (specialists in the treatment of diseases using medicinal herbs) and pharmacists.

If you open such a point, you can organize a point for receiving herbs from the population. This will allow you to short period accept and sell significantly more goods. And one more important point. To trade herbs, you will need an appropriate license, the time frame for obtaining which is several months, and the cost is about 10,000 rubles.

Some useful tips for herbal businessmen

Since you are going to be essentially preparing medicines, it is very important to choose the right place to collect them. After all, not only the variety of the plant, but also the place where it grows significantly influences its useful qualities. Therefore, before you start implementing this business idea, carefully read and remember the following important rules that experienced herbalists recommend following.

Plants need to be collected at certain times of the day. Ideally - in the morning, after the dew has dried. Under no circumstances should collection be carried out after rain or during heavy dew. When dried, wet plants lose their presentation and acquire an unpleasant odor.

And second important rule– collect herbs as far as possible from human habitats. If there is a road nearby, then the place for collecting medicinal plants should be at least 100-200 meters from it. As for industrial facilities - plants, factories, production workshops– then it is not recommended to collect herbs within a radius of 20 kilometers from them. The same applies to farmers' fields, which are cultivated with various chemicals. In general, the farther your site is from civilization, the better. We wish you success.

IN Lately, the tendency has become established that the acquisition of medicinal raw materials from the population is becoming almost impossible, because all free lands are gradually being purchased, and therefore there is nowhere to collect herbs. Therefore, growing medicinal plants as a business is a fairly profitable enterprise, and also quite in demand. Depending on the plant species, pharmaceutical companies accept the following plant parts:

• roots and stems;
• flowers and fruits;
• bark and leaves.

Business organization

If you have at your disposal land plot, then you can safely organize the cultivation of medicinal herbs as a business. Ideal option There will be special training that will help you understand all the intricacies of this process.

In addition, the success of the company will depend on successful transactions and the absence of competitors; it is better if you work with pharmaceutical companies on official terms. The most most of profits come from them.

The demand for medicinal raw materials is quite large, and besides, large areas are not required for these purposes, but this business cannot be organized in an apartment. You need to consider the conditions in which the plant you choose will grow. Except natural factors, sunlight and soil moisture, territorial aspects are taken into account.

In addition, other important conditions will need to be met:

1. Purchase of land.
2. Purchasing the necessary plant seeds. It should be noted that wild medicinal herbs, unlike domestic ones, are not sensitive to weather conditions or special care. And having selected a plant that matches climatic conditions your region, you will avoid additional waste on watering.
3. A utility room that will be well ventilated. Its purpose is to store collected raw materials until they are sold. If the business is developing at an accelerated pace, then the utility room will have to be expanded so that it meets all the necessary standards.
4. Equipment, based on the direction of work performed. These can be washing machines (when collecting roots), and equipment for extracting oil (in the case of growing oilseeds), as well as drying equipment; for a small amount of raw materials, a shed is also suitable, and for large volumes, dryers are simply necessary.
5. The Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation will need to undergo certification for permission to operate. This business is subject to quite serious requirements, the results of which are strictly controlled by the relevant authorities.

Based on the experience of other companies, the most cost-effective would be to grow several types of plants in one area, with the same ripening and harvesting periods.

For example: sage, mint and lavender plants are essential oil crops. All of them can grow in one area without conflicting with each other.

Plant species

In order for the medicinal herbs business to flourish, you need to decide what plants will grow on your site. To do right choice in favor of a particular plant, it is necessary to study the demand for medicinal raw materials. And also find out from future business partners what plants they need for the production of medicines.

All plants grow quite easily in any region, are not demanding of special climatic conditions, and also occupy a leading position in popularity.

Collection rules

The consumption capacity of pharmaceutical factories is increasing every year; on average, they require about 50 thousand tons. The procurement indicator is significantly lower, so the collection of medicinal herbs as a business is considered a way out of this situation. At minimum costs you can get good results.

Pharmacy today offers consumers a variety of drugs that can successfully treat various diseases. But people consume quite a lot of chemicals, and many choose to treat with natural remedies such as herbs. You can find any extract in pharmacies, but the industry practically does not produce herbal medicines. That is why this niche open for business.

Here it is important to make one subtle remark: only those who know nature well and understand medicinal plants can engage in this business.

What is needed to organize a business?

When planning this type of activity, pay attention to possible options events. This business from scratch can be the main one, during the development of which you will have to organize the collection of herbs, hire workers, organize production volumes and sales of goods. In addition, you will need registration - registration of business activity, as well as obtaining a license for this type of work.

The next stage is renting or purchasing premises, seeds, and organizing their cultivation. After this, you will need to prepare and sell the goods. Such activities require significant investment. You don’t have to collect herbs yourself, but open a collection point, then your task will only include drying and selling.

Another option is without any cash investment. You can organize your own business and not go to a large-scale level. For beginning entrepreneurs who do not have experience in this field, it is better to use it as additional income.

What equipment will you need to buy?

You can grow medicinal plants yourself, without the need to purchase equipment. They can successfully grow in summer cottages, and herbs can be dried and stored in utility rooms. If you plan to produce a large number of raw materials, you will need to buy a special drying chamber or floor drying, equipped with a tray in the form of a grid. If improperly dried, the raw material will lose its appearance and aroma, and it becomes useless for medical purposes. Accordingly, proper processing and storage of plants is the key to business success.

Collection can be carried out in a basket or box, the main thing is that the container is clean. It is recommended to grind dried raw materials with a regular mortar. In addition, you will need to purchase packaging materials. Fragrant herbs and flowers are used in the manufacture of various mixtures, as well as fragrant pillows. Birch and oak branches – great option for the manufacture of bath brooms.

Production Features

Collection is carried out in spring and summer. It is advisable to do this before noon or after the dew has disappeared. It is not recommended to collect plants after sunset. Be careful not to damage the herbs, especially if you want flowers and leaves. When collecting roots, you do not need to pull out all the plants found. Thin them out, otherwise next year nothing will grow here. You should also pick only those herbs that you need, without damaging those growing nearby.

When collecting plants, follow all the steps, such as the recommended time for collection. This allows you to save beneficial features herbs After collection, the plants should be treated and weeds removed that were picked by accident. Bunches are formed from the plants, after which they are hung out to dry under a canopy, but not in damp room. It is better to dry the raw materials in the wind in the shade.

Sales of medicinal herbs

One of the important components of business is the sale of raw materials. This is how you can earn income. To sell finished plants, you can use pharmacies or companies whose main activity is the production of homeopathic medicines. You can also sell medicinal herbs on the market; people actively purchase them in autumn and winter, when there is a peak colds. Advertisements in print publications and on the Internet can increase sales. In order for the sale of medicinal herbs to be effective, you must adhere to the requirements for dried herbs. This is important if you work with pharmaceutical companies.

Business on medicinal herbs: profitable or not?

This type of income is quite attractive, because its organization does not require significant costs, so there are excellent opportunities to make a profit, and very soon after the start. Dry medicinal herbs are in steady demand, and in winter there is a rush. In addition, you can earn good income by selling bath brooms.

You can determine how profitable it is by reading some examples and prices of grass that are most popular among the population. Herbs used in the preparation of decoctions for weight loss are in demand. No less popular are herbs used in the production of medicines for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and pancreas.
