In Srengat sub-district, Blitar regency, there are several productive businesses that process food such as madumongso, sambel pecel, dumpling chips, yuyu cake, stick, and sponge cakes and cakes produced by Mekar Jaya Women Farmer Group (KWT) and Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) Ananda. The problem faced by KWT Mekar Jaya is the milling of spices and nuts in the production of sambel pecel because this KWT does not have equipment for grinding.

... Another problem is the formation of dough sheets in the production of keripik pangsit that are still manual, therefore it takes a long time. KWT Mekar Jaya also still packs using candles that make the risk of imperfect packaging. Problems in the food processing in SME Ananda is limited capacity due to simple equipment used, household scale, and low capacity. The critical point of production capacity is in the process of mixing the dough and baking. Both have been using a small mixer and a small oven. Another problem is the packaging process that often fails because the hand sealer is not working properly. This program aims to increase the production capacity of food production in KWT Mekar Jaya and SME Ananda. The program to increase production capacity and processed product quality in KWT Mekar Jaya is done through facilitation of production equipment of sambel pecel and keripik pangsit in the form of grinder and sheeter. Improvement of packaging quality is done through facilitation of hand sealer and improvement of label design. The program to increase production capacity and quality of SME Ananda is done through increasing the capacity of baking, mixing, and improvement of packaging. Improvement of packaging label is done for keripik pangsit, sambel pecel, and madumongso with facilitation pedal sealer. Through equipment fasilitation, both partners can increase the capacity and efficiency of production. Partners have also diversified their processed products using facilities from this IbM program.
