If you’re a vegan-owned food brand ready to get into retailers and would jump at the chance to win a free place (worth £2,450 plus VAT) at veg-net, a day-long event where plant-based brands get 10 pre-arranged meetings with key retail buyers and experts to pitch your product, this is your opportunity.

“Although veg-net is open to all plant-based brands, Vegan Business Tribe have one free place to award specifically to a food brand founded by vegans and run on vegan ethics as part of our partnership with the event. Your entry will be judged by a panel of industry experts, including Andy Shovel, founder of THIS; Joe Hill, founder of One Planet Pizza; and David Pannell, founder of Vegan Business Tribe,” says the competition’s web page. 

Getting into your first retailer as a vegan food brand can be tricky. If you win the competition you’ll get to pitch to key retail buyers in the UK and Europe, which could supercharge your brand’s progress.

The application deadline is 21st April, so don’t hang around!
