ABOUT US
The Republic of Bulgaria is classified as the second county in the EU in terms of highest level of biological diversity; it is one of the countries with the highest percentage of areas in Natura 2000. Our farm is located is a virgin, ecologically clean area, on the natural border between the Pirin mountain and the Slavyanka mountain – the legendary Ali Botush. The eco-friendly Snails Group snail farm falls in two protected areas of the pan-European network of protected areas, i.e. Melnishki piramidi - BG0002072, a protected area under the Birds Directive, and Sreden Pirin/Alibotush – BG0001028, a protected area under the Habitats Directive.
The territories in close proximity to the farm are active habitats of many plant species, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, mammals and rats whose natural habitat is preserved because no measures of defense have been taken against them – snail fields are protected only by physical and mechanical control methods (fences, nets, electric shepherds, bird deterrents).

Our business
Our business must be fair and long-term. Trust is the most important asset of each company! However, it takes long time and many efforts to build it. Because of this, all business negotiations, correspondence and business relations of Snails Group are conducted in written form until our contracting parties and partners have enough evidence of our goodwill, honesty, loyalty and predictability. In this context, short-term business contacts and sporadic relations are volatile and affected by the current situation. So, we invite our future contracting parties and partners to act locally but think globally! For a sustainable, long-term business!
Our business, must be profitable. Snails Group is fully focused on the development of its innovative business enterprise – however, not at all costs! The minimum profitability set by the company does not guarantee the lowest price on the market. Pricing is based on the highest possible quality of the type and class of offered products. We are not compromising quality even if this makes us less competitive in terms of prices. Free trade and markets offer lots of such opportunities and our brand positioning is not associated with compromises on the quality of our goods and services.
Our business must be digital. We automatically control some of the processes, with the help of digital technology, specialized software and measuring instruments specifically applicable in the subfield of snail growing. We measure atmospheric conditions and irrigate snail growing fields, we control microclimate parameters in the incubator and hatchery – temperature, moisture, air current; we get snail slime, or the so called “snail tears” with digital milking modules for snails using a technology with a protective model that is absolutely harmless to Helix Aspersa Maxima.
Our business must be „green“ and „circular“. We use natural, unforced and unmodified products and processes. We grow Helix Aspersa Maxima from the copulation of mature individuals by laying caviar and hatching, until the maturation of individuals, in the natural environment where they are grown, in the way established by nature in the more than 20 million years of history of this species. Also, the carbon footprint of our farm is zero due to the absence of chemical and thermal processes. 100 % of the raw materials used by us in the process of incubation and growing of snails as well as 100% of the production mix of the snail farm is used and is a commodity equivalent in the processing, food, pharmaceutical industries and agriculture, including animal husbandry and aquaculture. Even the shells of Helix Aspersa Maxima are in high demand as raw material for the production of calcifying additives and derivatives.
