Why not let Your Co-op Food help you try something different during Veganuary?
2021 was already a big year for veganism in the UK and judging by the positive response to the Veganuary charity’s 2021 campaign with a record sign up of 580,000 participants, we anticipate 2022 to be even bigger. Check out some of the fantastic products available in a store near you.
Sample the GRO range!
GRO our ‘plant-based food range’ is here to help you change your diet and eat more ‘plant-based’ this January or as some may say ‘Veganuary.’
Here are a few interesting facts for you:
-
More than a quarter of all evening meals in the UK are vegan or vegetarian.
-
Vegans and vegetarians look set to make up a quarter of the British population in 2025, and flexitarians are just under half of all UK consumers.
-
Growth in plant-based is fuelled by younger, progressive ‘flexitarians’.
-
Each supermarket in the UK now have their own vegan range.
-
In 2020, every one of the top UK restaurants / food-to-go outlets had a vegan (or plant-based) offering.
