Our History

In the Spring of 2020 we launched the line of RightOnTrek meals with three objectives:

  • Address the market gap for high-quality, delicious, food with optimal nutrition for backcountry trips 

  • Design a product that would have minimal negative environmental impact and therefore align with the core values of people who love backcountry adventures 

  • Help people spend less time and money organizing quality nutrition and leave more time for the adventure

By late 2021, RightOnTrek Meals became the most active segment of our website in terms of customer engagement. Things grew steadily from there; with our product entry to retail stores across the mountain west in early 2022, expanding to over 25 states by the close of 2023.
RightOnTrek Food Services, Inc was officially incorporated as a subsidiary of RightOnTrek in 2023.

We are now 100% focused on creating and delivering high-quality products that help people enjoy the cooking and dining experience on all sorts of camping adventures.

Since late 2021 we have enjoyed having our home base in beautiful northwest Montana.

Our Mission

Our brand's mission is to help make outdoor adventures more accessible to people by offering hearty and wholesome meals to suit a range of tastes and diets while also using packaging materials that do minimal environmental harm. We believe that the quality and convenience of the RightOnTrek meals experience can help to foster a sense of togetherness, while also deepening personal connections with nature.

Values

RightOnTrek meals was founded on the premise that creating, sharing and eating good food with friends and family on backcountry adventures is a key ingredient to the bonding experience and making memories for a lifetime.

We strive to create meals that are easy to cook and taste amazing by using high-quality ingredients that are combined to deliver optimal nutrition.

We stand by sourcing sustainable materials for packaging that do not diminish the quality of the very same outdoor experiences we want to help people enjoy. Our meals are designed for sharing a good dining experience with friends and family.

An explorer by nature, Eric discovered a true passion for the outdoors on adventures to the mountain west. Eric co-founded RightOnTrek Meals in 2019 with a professional background in energy efficiency engineering for buildings. He brings an analytical mindset to product design and business operations. Some past work of his includes launching a line of sustainably-sourced energy bars, which brought him more awareness of how the farming industry and its systems influence our environment.

A Maine native, Steve moved to Bozeman, MT in 2008. Growing up in central Maine provided him with an abundance of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors--from canoeing the many lakes and streams in the state, to backpacking, and camping in Baxter State Park. When he's not skiing or mountain biking with his wife and two boys, Steve loves to fly fish, explore the Bob Marshall Wilderness, and spend time at hunting camp with his friends. Steve has twenty years of experience in sales and joined the RightOnTrek team in 2021.

Andrew has touched just about every aspect of the outdoor industry, and has been an integral member of the RightOnTrek team since 2022. Along with an extensive history in outdoor retail and buying, he’s been a thru-hiker, guide, and consultant. As someone who’s done a lot of work encouraging people to get outdoors, he feels some responsibility for stewardship on his own end, which is why he’s glad sustainability is always a part of the conversation with RightOnTrek Meals.

She has a newfound passion for the outdoors and loves to spend her free time exploring Glacier National Park, paddle boarding, mountain biking, camping and trail running with her dogs.

Thanks to this fateful decision, Alex discovered an incredible world of outdoor activities, which he had not previously been very interested in, and fell in love with mountains, hiking, and trailrunning, which he began to popularize in his city.
