Based in a municipal facility in la Tor de Querol, the 29-year-old engineer produces around twenty terrariums daily. After living in London and Scotland, Patxot settled in the Pyrenees two years ago to develop this project, which caters to a hobby that generates millions of euros worldwide.
“"You just have to assemble the pieces and the nest is done. It is like a Lego set."
The business offers over a hundred references, including specialized food and accessories. Beyond commercial success, Patxot aims to collaborate with local schools in Cerdanya to teach children about the complex social organization and biological importance of ant colonies.
