Penelitian ini bertujuan (1) mengetahui penanganan pascapanen yang dilakukan pasar modern sampai selada dipasarkan; (2) menentukan nilai tambah dengan penanganan pascapanen dihitung dengan profit margin di pasar modern. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada awal bulan September sampai akhir Oktober 2016, metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif dengan pengamatan langsung menggunakan kuisioner untuk mengumpulkan data. Penelitian dilakukan disalah satu pasar modern dan pasar tradisional untuk membandingkan perlakuan penanganan pascapanen terhadap selada. Penanganan pascapanen merupakan salah satu upaya suatu perusahaan untuk memberikan nilai tambah terhadap selada. Pasar modern dengan tingkat penjualan semua jenis selada sebanyak 88,99 kg dapat mengembalikan biaya penanganan pascapanen. Sedangkan pasar tradisional harus menjual selada sebanyak 121,55 kg untuk mengembalikan modal awal. Penanganan pascapanen sangatlah penting untuk mempertahankan umur simpan selada. Selain mempertahankan umur simpan selada, pasar modern memperoleh keuntungan lebih dan mendapat perhatian lebih dari konsumen dibandingkan pasar tradisional. Hasil penelitian ini juga memperoleh profit margin yang berbeda. Profit margin yang diperoleh pasar modern adalah sebesar 129,87% sedangkan profit margin yang diperoleh dari pasar tradisional adalah sebesar 25,3%. Profit margin yang diperoleh pasar modern sebesar 129,87% menunjukkan bahwa rasio penjualan yang tinggi merupakan kemampuan perusahaan menghasilkan laba yang tinggi pada tingkat penjualan tertentu, sebaliknya jika rasionya rendah menandakan penjualan yang terlalu rendah untuk tingkat biaya tertentu, atau biaya yang terlalu tinggi untuk tingkat penjualan tertentu. This study aims to (1) find out postharvest handling conducted by modern markets until the lettuce is marketed; (2) determining the added value with postharvest handling calculated by profit margin in the modern market. This research was conducted in early September until the end of October 2016, the method used in this research is descriptive method with direct observation using questionnaires to collect data. The study was conducted in one modern market and traditional markets to compare postharvest handling treatment of lettuce. Postharvest handling is one of the efforts of a company to provide added value to the lettuce. The modern market with the selling rate of all types of lettuce as much as 88.99 kg can restore the cost of postharvest handling. While the traditional market must sell as much as 121.55 kg lettuce to restore the initial capital. Postharvest handling is very important to maintain shelf life of lettuce. In addition to maintaining shelf life of lettuce, the modern market gains more and gets more attention from consumers than traditional markets. The results of this study also obtained a different profit margin. Profit margin obtained by modern market is 129,87% while profit margin obtained from traditional market is 25,3%. The profit margin obtained by the modern market of 129.87% indicates that a high sales ratio is a company's ability to generate high profits at a certain level of sales, on the contrary if the low ratio signifies sales that are too low for a certain level of cost, or cost too high for the level specific sales.
