Banza is a food innovation company on a mission to make beloved comfort foods more nutritious by swapping traditional ingredients for chickpeas.

Today Banza is the #1 better-for-you and #5 pasta brand in the United States, available in over 26,000 stores nationwide including Whole Foods, Target, Walmart, and Wegmans.
