Meet The Open Food Company
The first open‑source packaged food company
We're on a mission to set a new standard of transparency and purpose-driven impact
The Open Food Company is sparking a revolution in the food industry, whetting appetites for change with its groundbreaking approach. As the first-ever open-source consumer packaged goods company with an integrated charity-partner model, it is redefining how consumers engage with food by setting a new standard of transparency and purpose-driven impact - all while making high-quality, flavorful meals more convenient and accessible than ever.
Founded in 2024 by Emmy-nominated actor Harry Hamlin and renowned food industry veteran and Chef Renée Guilbault, this family-owned, WBENC-certified business is on a mission to empower consumers with nutritious, flavorful food made from simple, whole ingredients—without preservatives or additives. The Open Food Company shares its full recipes and step-by-step guides for free, allowing home cooks to recreate their products from scratch. By bridging the gap between convenience and culinary craftsmanship, The Open Food Company is transforming the way people engage with food and providing meaningful impact to our communities with every bite.
The Open Food Company envisions a world well-fed and is dedicated to the belief that food should nourish not only our bodies but also our communities in meaningful ways. Committed to fighting hunger, the company has partnered with four charitable organizations to provide 50% of the net profits from it’s first brand, Harry’s Famous Sauce, to the Open Door Food Pantry in Gloucester, MA, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, Food Bank for New York City, and Project Angel Food in West Hollywood—all of which work tirelessly to provide meals and support to those in need.
