Profile of Producer
For the field work task, we visited an industry
that produce an instant drink, made from
Kulit Manggis, which is KONDANG. Mr.
Bambang is the owner of this industry. The
industry it self located in, Yos Sudarso Street,
Number 20, Kupang, Ambarawa. Besides
Kulit Manggis, the industry also produces
another instant drink made from, Sirsak
leaves, Kunyit Asam, Kencur, etc.
Kondang industry is a home industry, so the production of the instant drink is made in
the back of the Mr. Bambangs house. Mr. Bambang had an education about instant
drink from BPOM, so the methods that he used are surely safe. In his home, there are
some machines that helped Mr. Bambang to produce the instant drink. He started this
business since 1997, but at that time, he doesnt make an instant drink yet. At first, Mr.
Bambang is making an instant Jamu, which made from spices like cinnamon, ginger,
brotowali, adas gunung, kumis kucing and etc. But, it turns out that this Jamu industry
doesnt going so well. So, thats how he started this new industry.

For the selling of the product, Mr. Bambang goes by himself to sell it. Now, the product
is available at super market like Hypermart, Carrefour, Gelael. But, to do so, theres a
lot of struggling that experienced by Mr. Bambang. At first, not all of the supermarket
accept the product, because a lot of reason. But, the most urgent reason are the license.
Supermarket are not going to accept a product which not has a suitable license for the
product. So, Mr. Bambang has to work on the license for the product. Fortunately, he
got helped by BPOM, so now, his product is already have the license from BPOM dan
Health Deparment.
