About Peacasa

Peacasa is an early-stage startup making Chickpea Chips, inspired by Socca — an ancient recipe from the South of France. We started manufacturing just four years ago, and our chips are now in 800 stores and selling through many major chains.

We are a small, dynamic team primed to grow quickly over the next few years. We operate out of our production facility at the GROVE in East London, where we are surrounded by other awesome food startups! We are looking for high energy people who want to grow with us :)
