Our Story – 8TrackFoods

What we Believe

We believe everyone has a right to eat healthy and sustainable foods. At 8 Track Foods, it’s not only our job to make good food, but our responsibility to make a positive impact on the world. We do this through our products, through the packaging we choose, the community we create, and the partnerships we select. We make it a priority to conserve and give. Because together we can leave our tracks a little lighter on this planet.

What we make

Everything you need to eat better, and nothing you don’t. We started with the perfect can of beans. Our vision is to build a better food system by creating premium basics. We set our standards high, so we would be proud to feed our family and friends. Our products aren’t just good, they are thoughtful, they solve real problems and use materials designed to be tough and beautiful. The result is a product that sets the standard for a sustainable food system, not just a sustainable product.

Plastic Sucks.

91% of plastic packaging ends up in our oceans and landfills. Tossing it into the bin isn't enough. By choosing our steel cans, you make an impact by reducing the amount of single-use plastics. Our cans are infinitely recyclable and get reclaimed in most waste streams because they are magnetic! How cool is that?

Food Waste Stinks!

40% of the food we grow in the United States ends up the trash! you can make a difference by making simple deliberate daily choices to stock your pantry with 8 Track Foods. Food waste ends up in landfills, where it decomposes anaerobically, creating 23 percent of all US emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas that exacerbates climate change.

Meet the Maker

Maggie Seng Sadowsky, who has a background in food science, set out to reinvent what she viewed as a dated commodity: the can of beans. While many saw it as a stale industry, she saw the solution to many of the food industry's biggest problems, including food waste, plastic packaging, and even climate change.

Despite the laughs and criticisms, she persisted and launched 8 Track Foods in February of 2020. Her premium organic and non-GMO beans are the beginning of a vision to create a sustainable food system, not just a sustainable product.

The impact extends beyond the beans. Maggie continues to seek partners working to change the food system.
Not all beans are created equal. This one can makes a positive impact.
