2. Promotors Details
3. Project Activities:
This production unit proposes to produce Shrubs. Shrub is a beverage made from
fruit/herb/vegetable-based or infused syrup used as a soft drink or as a recipe for alcohol
mixing like cocktails and also mocktails. This production unit proposes to produce a wide
range of soft beverages and concentrates to replace the consumption of unhealthy sugar.
4. Rational/benefits of investment:
Firstly, Bhutan imports a huge amount of soft drinks and other beverages. Furthermore,
the use of foreign syrup in alcohol production houses is enormous. This is in the view that
not many locally produced alternative beverages are available in Bhutan. There are
hardly any fruit/herb-based syrups produced in Bhutan, which can be used as a primary
recipe for high-end bars for producing mixed drinks like cocktails and mocktails. This
unit proposed to produce beverages brewed locally, which are organic and attuned to the
local taste buds. It will also produce a wide range of syrups, which are of equivalent (or
even better) standard and quality at a very competitive pricing, which can be directly
supplied to high-end bars, restaurants, and resorts.
Bhutan has some of the best herbs and shrub species which are very aromatic and carry
high medicinal properties, which can be used for producing healthy drinks. Furthermore,
there are fruits and vegetables produced organically by our farmers, which often fail to
find a market. This project is aimed at directly empowering local producers and resource
collectors with the principles of sustainability and holistic development. As a positive
social contribution, this project aims to enhance overall public health by providing
options to consume healthy beverages, which include probiotics. As a production line
extension strategy, the production of fruits and herbs-based syrup will be done to provide
a healthier alternative to (unhealthy) sugar consumption.
5. Project Description:
This project proposes to produce Shrubs, a beverage made from fruit/herb/vegetable-
based or infused syrup, which can be easily used to produce a wide range of beverages by
mixing with other fruit/herb/shrub-based extracts and other soft drinks. It is also one of
the primary recipes for mixed alcohol products like cocktails and non-alcoholic
mocktails. This production unit proposes to produce a wide range of soft beverages,
concentrates, and alternative refreshing drinks, which are probiotics.

There is no apparent assessable environmental impacts caused due to this project for now. If in
future, while extending it to the private land and also setting up full fledge factory, the assessment
will be carried out and appraised for clearance.
