Benefits from the proposed program

• Shipping companies will take a job of transporting purchased meat to the customers: the business stays

• Relocating meat area from Mahanak market to get closer to where people will go eat since Mahanak market is famous for fruit and vegetable, it is make sense to have meat market here.

• Farmers will have the power to do a direct bargain to their customer: get higher profit without the middle man.
