Taking advantage of her free time during the agricultural off-season, Ms. Pham Thi Lam from Block 11, Hung Nguyen town, opened a sugarcane juice stall on the sidewalk of National Highway 46 in Hung Nguyen town. Ms. Lam said that this business only requires an investment of one sugarcane juice press, 5-6 sets of tables and chairs, and a few dozen cups, with a total cost of about 10 million VND.
Sugarcane stalks are bought for 10,000 VND each. After peeling and putting them into a juicer to extract the juice, a few spoonfuls of ice are added to make a delicious, refreshing glass of sugarcane juice, which is sold for 8,000-10,000 VND. One sugarcane stalk can yield 4-5 glasses of juice, bringing in 35,000-45,000 VND. After deducting the cost of sugarcane, kumquats, and ice, the profit is 25,000 VND. "Every day I sell about 60-100 glasses of sugarcane juice and a few dozen glasses of coconut water. After deducting expenses, I earn 200,000-250,000 VND," Mrs. Lam said.
