Our Story

Hello everyone! 

We are a team of 3 people from Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Belarus. Some of us came to Georgia after the protests in Belarus in 2020, other during the war in Ukraine in 2022. 

 

Let us tell you a little bit about us and why we decided to create Lazy Snark Adventure Food in Georgia 🇬🇪

Nature and outdoor activity are what inspire and give us energy. Surely, like you, since you are here. We love to go hiking & camping, climb mountains & waterfalls, snowboard and ski on pristine snow, ride bikes, enjoy nature and make photos of all this beauty around us. We can say that we cannot live without active life in nature.

But to have such an active outdoor life, we need to eat well. It's also good when this food is easy & fast to prepare, nutritious and full of protein, weighs little and does not take up much space in a backpack. 

But do you know what the problem is? There is no such food in Georgia. 

There is incredibly tasty food in cafes and guesthouses, but there is nothing convenient and tasty for hiking. That was the problem and the main reason why we decided to create our company.

Freeze-dried or dehydrated food meets all the requirements needed for any outdoor lover: it's delicious, easy to cook, lightweight, packable, long-storable. That's why we decided to make dehydrated food for ourselves. This is how our story began in 2022.

At first we made everything on our kitchen and tested this food in all our adventures. Then some friends asked about it, we gave it to them and they really liked it. When others started asking to sell it to them, and we got more and more good feedback, we rented a kitchen, bought better equipment and started making dehydrated food on a bigger scale.

That was the first version of our products:

 

Then we partnered with the biggest outdoor shops (Mplus, Outdoors, Oge) in Tbilisi and Batumi and noticed that our food is very popular among their customers. The Mplus store alone sold about 900 packages in our first year of operation. And this was the best sign for us that we need to continue making such food, improve it and strive to ensure that every lover of hiking and climbing in Georgia knows about us.

We understood that there are a lot of things that we need to improve based on the feedback of our customers. That's why in the 2nd year of our business we focused on improving the products and packaging. 

In 2024 we rented a new, bigger and better kitchen. We also improved some dishes, added more seasonings and salt (almost every customer told us about that), improved the consistency of dishes, added sauces. We very actively ask customers for feedback, and then we improve dishes based on this. We believe that it's the best way to make the products better. 

And the most important update: we have changed the packaging. The previous one (from the photo above) was not so comfortable to eat from it, it was hard to tear it off and some other problems. But with the new one (square), all these problems were solved: now it's easy to eat from the package even with a short spoon, the quality of the package is much better and the design...

 

 

Almost every one tell us that the design is amazing, they like it. And we too!

Right now we are selling our products in almost all outdoor shops in Georgia. In Tbilisi: Mplus, Outdoors, Sportmaster, Rent4Travel, Transcaucasian Trail Office. In Batumi: Oge, Adjarapeak, Take&Hike. Also in Mestia, in Erti Kava coffee shop. 

 

 

What are the advantages of our food?

  • Lightweight: it's just ~100g per package;
  • Easy-to-cook: just add 200-500ml of boiled water (depends on the dish), stir it well and wait just 10-15 min (depends on the dish);
  • Nutritious, full of protein: We use only natural and local ingredients. The recipes are balanced and ideally meet needs of all adventure lovers. You will not be hungry even after a long and hard day in the mountains
  • Packable: Our packs are very small, they will not take a lot of space in your backpack. 
  • Affordable prices: If we compare it with European or US brands, our food is 2X cheaper ($5-6 vs $11-14). 

 

Now our plan is to make sure that every hiker and climber in Georgia knows about us. This year we are going to focus on Georgian market, add more dishes and energy bars. Pass through HACCP certification and then try to enter European market + a few nearby markets (Armenia)

We want you to enjoy the beauty of nature around you instead of wasting a lot of time and efforts on preparing the food in the mountains. Our food will simplify any of your adventures, make it delicious and nutritious, full of energy to explore the beauty of our world!

We hope that you if you try our products, you will like it. If not, let us know your feedback!
