Afar founder Gene and his mom

Our Story

Tired of my usual sugary bars and oily chips, I decided to cook up a tastier, healthier snack. A year and 500+ recipe tests later, the Afar bar was born.

I enlisted the help of my amazing mom. Together, we transformed a ghost kitchen into our snack factory, where we handmade the first 50,000+ Afar bars.

Fast forward to today: we’ve outgrown our ghost kitchen. We're thrilled to share Afar bars with an ever-growing community of snackers.

I eat them daily, and I hope you'll love them just as much as I do. Happy snacking!
