The crocodiles at Croc Farm are raised for leather and meat. ''Reptel'', the company behind Croc Farm, is for more than 20 years breeder, producer and exporter of Nile crocodile skins for luxury leather goods. ''Reptel Madagascar '' is today one of the few enterprises worldwide, which integrate the entire production process from collecting the crocodile eggs to the final production of fine leather goods. The production cycle is divided into four steps: 1) the collection and incubation of the eggs, 2) the first growth phase of about six months, 3) second growth phase until slaughtering depending on the size of the skin and 4) slaughtering and processing before export or local tanning. As of 2007, the tanning process is done 100% vegetable. Reptel has its own brand of leather goods, that are designed and produced at their own workshops. Fine Reptel leather products, such as handbags and belts, can be obtained at the souvenir shop at the Croc Farm, or at the Reptel shop in [[Hotel Carlton]] in [[Antananarivo]] as well as in the duty free zone of [[Ivato International Airport|Ivato Airport]].
