Co-operatives: A society which has as its objectives the promotion of the interests of its members in accordance with the principles of cooperation. Feature which differentiates the co-operatives from other forms of business ownership is that its primary motive is service to the members rather than making profits. It is subject to the provisions of the Co-operative Societies Act, 1912 or State Co-operative Societies Acts.

These national and state level institutions are known as 'Development Banks'. Besides the development banks, there are several other institutions called as 'Investment Companies' or 'Investment Trusts' which subscribe to the shares and debentures offered to the public by companies. These include the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC); General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC); Unit Trust of India (UTI), etc.

Setting up of a unit depends on the product choice of an entrepreneur which can be related to bakery/confectionery products, meat/poultry processed products or fruits/vegetable products.   Products for Small Scale Units:- The reservation of products for exclusive manufacture in the small scale sector is encouraged for the growth of Small Scale Industries by the government. Large/Medium units can, however, manufacture such   reserved items provided they undertake to export 50% or more of their production. The List of items reserved for exclusive manufacture in Small Scale Sector (as on 13 March 2007) includes items from food processing sector also.

    9. Industry-Specific Agencies: Various promotional industry specific agencies and organizations have been set up by the Central as well as the State Governments. These organizations undertake monitoring, research, market - development, export promotion or such other work for a particular industry. Secretariat for Industrial Assistance (SIA) has been set up by the Government of India in the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion in the Ministry of Commerce & Industry to provide a single window service for assistance.

In most of the states the organizations present to assist and promote industries are: - Investment Promotion Agencies (IPA) State Industrial Development Corporations (SIDC) Small Scale Industries Development Corporations (SSIDC) State Financial Corporations (SFC) District Industries Centres (DIC) Single Window Service and Escort Service

    11. Location of the business is the most important factor influencing its success or failure. Selection of the Region Selecting a region for setting up an enterprise is dependent on the following factors: Availability of Raw Materials Supply of Labour Proximity to the Product Market Availability of Transport Facilities Supply of Power Climatic Factors Government Regulations and Policies Law and Order Existence of Complementary and Competitive Industries

    13. The next important step for a firm is to select appropriate technology and equipment to produce the product. In addition to this, the source of raw material has to be decided upon. In case of raw materials, the Export Import Policy of the Government regulates imports. However, in the case of technology, the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Policy and the Foreign Technology Transfer Agreements govern the imports.  Related Links: Small Industries Development Organisation (SIDO) Directorate General of Foreign Trade Department of Commerce National Small Industries Corporation Ltd.
