Demasko Farms is more than just a snail farming venture; it’s a beacon of innovation, sustainability, and empowerment in Ghana’s agricultural landscape. Our focus on snail farming, as outlined in the previous description, positions us as a transformative force with green and sustainable practices. Here’s a recap of our core values and goals:
Eco-Friendly Practices: Demasko Farms is committed to sustainability. We take abandoned and rejected refrigerators, which are environmental hazards, and convert them into efficient snail pens. Furthermore, we utilize agro-processing methods to recycle waste eggshells into highly nutritious snail feed supplements. This approach not only reduces waste but also contributes to the well-being of our environment.
Empowerment: On a social level, Demasko Farms plays a crucial role in addressing poverty, hunger, and health issues. We empower individuals by providing them with the means to engage in snail farming, an activity that can boost their economic prospects and nutritional health. Our snail meat contributes to better immune health.
Economic Growth: We are currently providing employment for seven individuals. As we grow and expand, our goal is to employ more people, with the aim of creating at least ten additional job opportunities by the end of 2024.
Innovative Smart App: The Demasko Smart App is a pioneering venture that leverages the Ayoba super app to connect customers and investors. It offers a range of features, from free chat and calls to easy interaction with Demasko Farms.
Recognition and Awards: We have been honored with several awards and recognitions, from the MTN Ayoba MoMo award to recognition as the Best Trainee for Gamma Cohort 8 at the NBU Hub. Our founder and CEO has also received scholarships and support from reputable institutions.
In the near future, we have ambitious goals:
Snail Slime Business: We plan to venture into the snail slime business by the end of 2024. Snail slime, with its potential anti-aging, hydrating, and anti-inflammatory benefits, is in high demand by cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies globally.
Exporting Snail Feed Supplements: By the end of 2024, we aim to export our snail feed supplements worldwide, opening up new markets and opportunities.
Demasko Farms is not just a local enterprise; it embodies a global vision rooted in sustainability, innovation, and socio-economic empowerment. By leveraging Ghana’s agricultural potential, the global dynamics of the snail product market, and innovative practices like recycling refrigerators and eggshells, we’re at the forefront of transformative change. Our journey transcends borders, empowers communities, and champions a sustainable future. As we navigate this dynamic landscape, the vision of Demasko Farms shines ever brighter, illuminating a path toward excellence and impact.
