Our story

An ancient protein,
made for modern life.

Inspired by a traditional Mongolian food — air-dried meat made to last, travel, and fuel long days.

From the founder

I grew up eating borts in Mongolia.

It wasn't marketed as "high protein" or "functional." It was just food — dried meat we always had around because it lasted, traveled well, and made eating simple.

When I moved to the U.S., protein felt completely different. Everything was processed, packaged, and overcomplicated — bars, powders, shakes.

It didn't feel like food.

So I started thinking: why isn't there a simpler way?

Borts is my answer to that.

It's the same idea I grew up with — real, air-dried meat — but made for modern life. Something you can grab, eat, and move on with your day. No prep, no decisions, no compromise.

Just meat.

What we stand for

Our principles.

Simplicity

Two ingredients. That's it. Every unnecessary addition is a distraction from what matters. We do less, better.

Purpose

This food was shaped by necessity — made to last, travel, and fuel long days. We're bringing that same clarity of purpose into modern life.

Function

No refrigeration, no preparation, no decisions. Protein that fits your life instead of demanding you reorganize it.

See how it's made.

Our process is as simple as our ingredients.
