About the Makers
Marleen Basart started BitesWeLove in 2014 in De Pijp, Amsterdam. With her experience as a category manager at Albert Heijn, she saw the potential of healthier snacks. She now runs the company together with Liesbeth Gouwens, who has a background in shipping finance. Despite their different backgrounds, they share a passion for tasty and healthy food, which is the core of BitesWeLove.
Production Process
Developing the bites starts with a careful composition of ingredients, where nutrition and taste are central. The bites are flavored with natural herbs and spices that are specially developed for BitesWeLove. Each new batch is tested by test subjects to ensure that both taste and packaging meet the highest standards.
Sustainability
BitesWeLove pays a lot of attention to sustainable packaging. They consciously chose monofoil, a single type of plastic that is easily recyclable. This makes the packaging material one of the most sustainable options, with which BitesWeLove contributes to a better environment.
