Our Story
Empie was born from a simple frustration: most "plant-based" food is engineered, not grown. We're putting the plant back in plant-based — starting with one of the most generous plants on earth.
Make clean-label, hemp-based food that's good for people and good for the soil it grew in.
A Plant-Based 3.0 pantry — short ingredient lists, regenerative crops, no synthetic fillers.
THC & CBD free. All 9 essential amino acids. Omega 3 & 6 balance. No padding, no hype.
Plant-Based 1.0 was substitution — swapping animal for soy or wheat. 2.0 was imitation — ultra-processed analogues built in a lab. 3.0 is what comes next: real plants, short ingredient lists, and crops that actively give back to the planet they grow in.
Hemp removes 1.63 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne grown, needs minimal water and no pesticides, and delivers all 9 essential amino acids with a balanced omega 3 & 6 profile. It's the foundation of every Empie product.
"We don't want to be another plant-based brand. We want to be the reason 'plant-based' stops meaning 'highly processed'."

Plant drinks, snack bars and truffles — all hemp-powered.
