Business Operation
Expansion Potential:
Argella offers excellent potential for expansion in multiple directions:
Export of artisanal cheeses and pomegranate wine to EU and regional markets
Product line development – yogurt, creams, and other dairy delicacies
Agri-tourism – converting part of the estate into guest accommodations or eco-lodges
Workshops & events – hosting cheese-making classes, tastings, and farm experiences
Online sales & brand growth through digital marketing and e-commerce platforms
The farm is well-positioned to grow both as a high-quality food producer and as a rural tourism destination.
Competition / Market:
The market for artisanal dairy and natural products in Montenegro is still emerging, with limited competition in the boutique farm sector. Argella stands out with its established brand, quality reputation, and direct customer base. Its combination of production, retail, and rural tourism gives it a unique competitive advantage both locally and for export potential.
Reasons for selling:
The owner is fully engaged in another growing business and no longer has the time required to personally manage the farm. Due to increased responsibilities in a separate company, the decision was made to sell the farm to someone who can continue its development and fully realize its potential.
Trading hours: 24/7 and for visitors 10-19
Employees: 5
Years established: 2021
