Innovative businessmen specialize in sniffing out fringe products and turning them into hot commodities. They look at factors such as core market and versatility. Now is the time to strike on the newest up and coming commodity, Panda Poop. Once thought of as a nuisance excrement, this animal byproduct is no longer just a waste.
A brief background on the poop.
Panda Poop as the name suggest comes from the rare and exotic Panda Bear. A Panda Bear as a mammal that can grow as big as the American Black Bear. They exist in only six known habitats located in main land China. The bears mainly feed on fifteen types of bamboo, the main source for poop production.
The discovery of the first innovation.
In a publish report in 2003, it was reported that Japanese professor Fumiaki Taguchi of the Kitasato University in Tokyo began experimenting with the poop. He theorized that because the Panda diet relies heavily on bamboo, their stomach bacteria must be something special. The professor's hypothesis that the poop could be used as a natural energy alternative has spawned a program of industrial research. While poop production at present isn't high enough to stop oil dependency, it can offer some relief.
The Chinese paperwork innovation.
In a reversal of product roles, the Chinese have taken to converting Panda Poop into multicolored paper products. Skeptical at first in the venture, they are now shoveling in the profits. Notebooks, bookmarks, and key chains from Panda Poop have passed into a popular fad. Product production is barely keeping up with the demand.
The Thai government hones in on excrement.
Thailand rents two Pandas from China at the cost of $250,000 a year to get their hands on the fabulous feces. Their main concerns are processing the byproduct into paper eliminating much of the chemicals used in the current method. It is estimated that two Pandas on a good day will produce 55 lbs of this no longer waste product. Not counting the habitat facilities and feed, they are paying approximately $803 per pound to play with its possibilities.
Time to think about getting on the ground floor.
The best time to get into any commodity is when it has the scent of possibility. It is only a matter of time before other uses for these versatile feces will begin to plop into the marketplace. By positioning yourself the right way at the right time, you can receive the benefits as the poop explodes into fashion. Many products from the Far East have been found to thrive in the western markets. Right behind such marketing giants as ginseng and bamboo curtains lurks the next hot Asian wave of the future, Panda Poop. I recommend if you have a nose for business you should keep an eye out for this product and step into this opportunity. You could become stinking rich, if you do.
