In 2021, the establishment of an International School in the village of Golyama Zhelyazna attracted the attention of one of the world's leading culinary academies – FERRANDI Paris – with its ambition, quality, and strong focus on cultural heritage. We are proud that an institution with more than 100 years of history, an established reputation and outstanding achievements became an official partner of Sharena Fabrika Culinary School. Since then, the foundations of our educational programs have been built, modeled after the globally recognized programs of FERRANDI Paris and savoir-faire in French cuisine.

The partnership with FERRANDI Paris builds on our vision of preserving and promoting the distinctive characteristics of Balkan cuisine through established culinary education practices and the introduction of French techniques. These already solid foundations enable traditions to be carried into the future, while building a healthy culinary environment for both people and nature. In this context, cultural identity, clean food, health, and diversity are being reimagined, and Balkan culinary traditions are finding their way onto the global culinary scene.
