About kamado bono

Kamado Bono first launched in 2016 when we sold our first grill, which our current CEO and company founder, Tomas, personally carried to the buyer’s car. Few people know that we began as a small, two-person family business, and we have grown successfully thanks to a great deal of hard work, knowledge and creativity.

The members of our team love to grill their meals every day. We are naturally curious, so we ceaselessly experiment, gather knowledge and then share it with the world. In this way, we creatively grow our love for what we do. We are very proud that our example has inspired more and more people to try their hand at the grill. Our events encouraged them to gather together, and as a result, the Facebook community was born, called Lithuania Grilling & Smoking, where people can discuss and share their favourite grilling experiences and tips. Today, the community unites 135,000 grilling enthusiasts and professionals, and it is one of the largest grilling groups in Europe!

Today, our products travel to various countries around the world, where they are popular with curious people who appreciate incredible, well-prepared food and who want to improve their skills as grillers. Our mission is to bring the love and skill of grilling to as many people as possible, and we are beyond grateful to our customers who have supported us along our journey. We want to inspire and encourage new grillers as well as support more experienced ones with our top-of-the-line products.

By being useful to others, we, at Kamado Bono, give meaning to our work. To us, there is no greater joy than the perfect grill, and we want to spread that to the world by popularising grill culture across the world!

We sincerely believe that everyone can become a good grillist, including you. And we are here to make it easy.

Kamado Bono is among the leaders

At Kamado Bono, we believe in the phrase “There is always a higher level.” It perfectly reflects the direction we’re heading as a company.

Within the company, we’re building a team of dedicated professionals, not only in grilling but across all areas of our business, and we’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far.

We’re proud of our journey so far and remain focused on building even greater success in the years to come.

Behind every brand are people. Behind Kamado Bono is a team united by a strong sense of responsibility, friendship, a desire to improve and a good sense of humor. Yes, our greatest value is people and close, healthy relationships with them: with the team, with customers, with colleagues.

Like all people, we have weaknesses – we are addicted to grilling, to the desire to learn more. Do you know where we had to light a grill? In a yurt in Estonia, at the Dakar Rally camp, at the NATO headquarters in Brussels, in the middle of the desert in Dubai, at the prestigious Jack Daniel’s Championship in the USA, at an altitude of 1,600 m in the snowy Alps at the KCBS W.E.S.T. grilling competition, at the foot of an ancient castle in Poland and that’s not the end! Grilling has become an integral part of our lives. Like our DNA.

When establishing working relationships abroad, it is extremely important for us that the partner’s and our team’s approach to work, customers and values ​​coincide. We believe that this is the only way we will be able to work successfully and achieve good team results. We are guided by this point of view when communicating with the administration of factories that manufacture our products and with representatives in foreign countries. We believe in the power of a team. Kamado Bono is much more than a grille. It’s a community, a friendship, and a lifestyle.
