What's in a name?
We know, it’s curious. What is a beluga bean anyway?
Well, it came time to name our Academy. Many of the descriptive names we were imagining were already taken or a bit dull. So, we decided to go the other route for naming a business, which is to choose something kinda cool and then build a brand with meaning.
Beluga lentils are a super-food as they pack a nutritional punch way above their tiny size and weight. They’re not technically a bean, but are in the same family. The Academy is business skills and bean counting, as well life skills and being full of beans.
So…we invented Beluga Bean.
