Snails are considered a delicacy in West Africa but many people don’t know how to clean them.

Nina Ngassa, a woman entrepreneur in Cameroon, is making her fortune by doing the job many would rather avoid.

“I work with a lot of women, especially in the rainy season. I have about eight to 10 women working for me,” says Ngassa.
