Why This Matters

New England built this country's fishing trade. The boats out of Maine and Massachusetts fed the continent for centuries, and the canneries that packed the catch were the backbone of every working waterfront. Then the canning left, and the fish landed here started leaving to be tinned somewhere else.

BELA is putting that step back where it belongs. We are canning in Maine, working directly with the boats and ports that bring the catch in, so New England fish stays New England fish from the water to the tin.

Bringing It Back

Canning left New England decades ago, and the fish that built these ports started going elsewhere to be tinned. BELA is bringing it home. We are canning in Maine, working close to the boats that land the catch, so New England fish stays New England fish from the water to the tin.

The Line

Canned in Maine, close to the boats and ports that land the catch. New England fish in New England tins for the first time in a generation. The Tin Society tastes it a full month before it reaches a single store.

FAQs

What is the BELA Tin Society? Open Close

A fifty-seat founding membership built around BELA's new American line. Members receive every tin canned in Maine a full month before it reaches retail. Four drops of three tins each, September through December.

How and when do the tins arrive? Open Close

Four drops, one a month from September to December. Three tins per drop, twelve tins in all. September is the first BELA tin ever canned in America, and every drop reaches you before that product touches a store shelf.

Is this a subscription? Open Close

No. One payment, no renewal, no recurring billing. You claim a seat once and all four drops are yours. When the fifty seats fill, the Society closes and does not reopen.

Why only fifty seats? Open Close

Because it is a founding group, not a store. The roster is built from BELA's longest-standing customers, printed and numbered, so it stays a short named list rather than an open sale. Your member number is permanent.

What comes with a seat? Open Close

Twelve tins across four drops, each drop valued over $100. A permanent member number, and a 15% code good on everything you order for a full year.
