  • Butt Foods Vegan Snapshot UPDATED 11 05 18
    SNAPSHOT OF THE GROWING VEGAN SCENE IN THE UK The rise of veganism in the UK and what it may mean for foodservice opportunities From being seen as niche and ‘quirky’ even just ten years ago, veganism is now more popular than ever across the UK. Driven primarily by younger people responding to growing fears over personal health, animal welfare and climate change – and fuelled by campaigns such as the annual Veganuary – the growing interest and participation in veganism looks set to continue. As ever, for foodservice operators, the vegan movement represents both a challenge and an opportunity. Either way, it can’t be ignored. Veganism is Most trend forecasters and market analysts agree that the era of mainstream becoming more veganism has arrived. Growing out of its perceived eccentric origins, and latterly its mainstream and trendy, ‘metropolitan hipster' cache, the increasingly wide interest in the vegan way less niche. of eating is fuelled by a variety of powerful – and highly topical – consumer motives and supported by a burgeoning industry of crowd-funded new business start-ups, cookbooks, Youtube channels, social media and events. But to properly understand the growth it’s important to recognise that it’s largely a ground-up movement, driven mainly by under-35s, and their motivations suggest that this is sustainable growth. "1 of "15 What’s a vegan? Like vegetarians, vegans have cut all meat and fish from their diet, but they go a step further and also exclude any products of animal origin, such as milk, cheese, eggs and honey. More than 860,000 of all vegetarians and vegans also avoid all non- dietary animal products such as leather and wool.! ! The vegan ‘halo effect’ Demand is being It’s interesting to note that, beyond the core of declared vegans, there seems to be a driven not only by growing ‘halo’ of consumers who are not actually vegans themselves, but exhibit declared vegans, but by non-vegans vegan buying behaviour from time to time.
