             Fruit production, especially the deciduous type, is not traditional in Nepal, and because of that it is limited.  Peach trees are in scattered locations but have very little commercial value (Devkota, n.d.).  A farmer from Nepal would be the one to start and then run the nursery.  It would be beneficial if it were a family operation that way little to no extra labour may be required while the orchard is still small and staring out.  Depending on the location of the orchard the buyers could be limitless, if the orchard is near roads and a large population that allows a larger market.  The peaches could be sold in stores or just in a farmers market.  If the people of Nepal understand how beneficial the peaches can be, then they will come and buy them.  There is also a market for the saplings of the trees so that a household or a village can purchase a tree.  By selling the trees to individuals, or a groups of people it allows remote villages or families who don’t have access to stores a way to grow their own fruit, and one tree has the potential to be shared by many.
