Every January, retailers vie with one another to bring out more, bigger, and better vegan products and menus to capitalize on the huge popularity of Veganuary. But our work with businesses takes place year-round!
From large multinational corporations to smaller street retailers, we offer support and promote their increased production of delicious animal-free items. In 2024, more than 2,100 new vegan products and menu options were launched globally during the month.
Sixty-two percent, or 79 million, U.S. households are now buying plant-based products according to SPINS. This represents a huge opportunity for brands, restaurants, and retailers to launch new plant-based options, and Veganuary has become a key marketing moment for new vegan product launches.
Some of the launches that have made a big splash since the US campaign launched are Blue Sushi Sake Grill’s new vegan sushi rolls, Magnum’s vegan mini ice cream bars, Mellow Mushroom’s vegan menu, Hard Rock Cafe and &Pizza’s Veganuary menus, and new vegan cookie flavors at Insomnia Cookies. Expect to see more major launches coming to the US soon!
Our corporate collaborations are making plant-based foods so prevalent and so delicious that it is now easier than ever for anyone to choose vegan options. We are expanding this work around the globe!
Our work with businesses doesn’t stop at product and menu collaborations, we also encourage them to run a Veganuary Workplace Challenge in January.
Large and influential US organizations have taken part in our Workplace Challenge over the years, including Aveda, Lam Research, City of San Antonio, and Loyola Marymount University.
These employers encouraged their staff to try vegan for January as well as additional activities including educational programming and providing more vegan options in staff cafeterias.
We think it would be wonderful if every business ran a Veganuary Workplace Challenge, so we’ve made it as easy as could be! All of the resources can be downloaded from our site, we just need you to be a Workplace Champion and bring your colleagues along for the ride!
Join in to receive a celebrity e-cookbook along with 31 days of inspiring recipes, nutrition tips and more. All our resources are 100% free!
