Our sardines with white beans, lemon, garlic and leeks can be added to salads, pastas and sandwiches, or eaten straight from the tin with a hunk of crusty bread—they are full of protein and omega-3s. Sardines reproduce fast, making them a more renewable resource. Ours come from thriving, well-managed populations in the Bay of Biscay, off Northern Spain and are caught using small-scale purse seines to reduce bycatch and prevent overharvest. We partner with fishermen who belong to centuries-old cofradias, or guilds, which share profits and encourage cooperation. The sardines are processed, seasoned and canned by a family-owned certified B Corp, also in northern Spain, that employs mostly women.

Because this process takes time and care, the overall cost of making these tins ends up being similar to a tin full of sardines. It’s truly a labor of love to create these recipes, and we do it because we believe the flavor and quality are worth it.
We hope this gives a little more insight into why the price is what it is—and we’re always working to make sure our products deliver great taste and value. Thanks again for sharing your perspective!
