Guizhou Chili Pepper Drying Customer Case
1.Customer Needs: Addressing the Three Pain Points of Traditional Drying
A large chili pepper processing company in Guizhou faced three core challenges:
Capacity Bottleneck: Traditional coal-fired drying rooms can only process 5 tons per day, resulting in a significant backlog of orders during peak season.
Environmental Pressure: Coal-fired drying produces excessive SO₂ emissions, leading to rectification requirements from environmental protection authorities.
Quality Fluctuation: Manual temperature control results in uneven color in finished products, leading to customer complaints regarding export orders.
Special Requirements:
Needs to adapt to Guizhou’s rainy climate (average annual humidity above 80%) and process chili peppers such as shiitake mushrooms and string peppers. Local Specialty Varieties
