2. Semi-automated & Fully-automated Bammy Making Facility:

Smaller operations may use semi-automated bammy making facility which costs $50,000–$150,000. This line can process 0.5-2 tons of bammy per hour. While large-scale automated bammy processing plants require $300,000+ investments, which can process 3-5 tons bammy per hour. Not only machine cost also include shipping cost, factory building cost, guide installation and machine commissioning etc. Cost of bammy making faciity will take up around 40% in whole investment.

3.Cost of Raw Materials & Labor:

- Sourcing cassava locally (avg. $0.30/kg) minimizes logistics expenses.

- Labor costs range from $200–$400/month per worker.

Establishing a bammy making facility in Jamaica requires a $50,000–$400,000+ net investment, heavily influenced by automation level and incentive utilization.
