Snails are known for their high protein content, low fat, and rich mineral composition, including iron, calcium, and vitamin B12. Traditionally eaten fresh or smoked, snails have been part of West African cuisine for generations. However, Agro Empire’s innovation in canning snails not only extends their shelf life but also expands their reach to households, supermarkets, and international markets.

Each can is carefully processed using hygienic, food-grade methods that retain the snail’s natural texture and flavor. Available in varieties like snails in tomato sauce, spicy pepper sauce, or simply brined, these ready-to-eat products allow busy consumers to enjoy traditional meals without the hassle of cleaning and cooking snails from scratch.

The canned snail industry also plays a critical role in reducing food waste. Surplus snails that would otherwise perish before reaching the market are preserved and repurposed, ensuring year-round availability of a seasonal product.

Moreover, by promoting canned snails, Agro Empire empowers women-led households, street vendors, and small restaurants with a versatile, protein-rich ingredient that’s easy to store and use. It’s not just a product—it’s a lifestyle shift toward better nutrition, greater convenience, and local pride.

Canned snails might be a novelty today, but with the global rise in demand for sustainable protein and exotic flavors, it could very well be Ghana’s next big food export.
