Production process design hybrid real processors opinions is vital important. Many production processes design did not consider processors needs, resulting in many failure products. Glutinous rice industries have their own particularity of production process. Glutinous rice product is a product which is a raw glutinous rice material hybrid from food processing. In Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Korean, etc. societies, glutinous rice products are an important rice product and staple food. Glutinous rice product processors have to face variable raw material (glutinous rice) costs, hence, if they know the trend of glutinous rice products and products diversity, then this would easily gain better profits when they produce these glutinous rice products. This research tries to build a better production processes through processors depth interview, aiming at glutinous rice processors for examples. In this study, a profit formula was constructed. Through in depth interview survey, there were 12 processors in Taiwan visited during 2012. It showed that health, convenience and tourism factors potentially obtained the most profits when processors produced these glutinous rice products. These raw distribution data sets of glutinous rice processors costs would be a foundation of production process design references.
