MADE AT MNOA

<I got involved with Banan while I was at UH Mnoa. As a nutrition major, I really enjoyed their product and was able to see the ingredients that they used to create a healthier alternative for those with a sweet tooth. I love working for Banan because I enjoy being able to sell a product that I can stand behind and also work for a company that takes pride in supporting local businesses and building up the community around them.=
