The Biena Story:

Biena was founded by Poorvi Patodia in 2012 when she was looking for healthier snacking options while pregnant, and was inspired by a favorite childhood snack, the chickpea. Poorvi began experimenting in her own kitchen developing a unique way to roast chickpeas, making them light and crispy, while keeping the protein, fiber and nutrients whole. 

Although chickpeas are naturally allergy-friendly, all Biena snacks use Non-GMO Project Verified ingredients. They also carry vegan options. Everything is made from scratch in the U.S and the majority of snacks are produced in a peanut-free facility where tree nuts, dairy, and soy may be present.
