Who are our vegan business experts Lisa and David?
Vegan Business Tribe was founded by Lisa and David from Promote Vegan – a vegan consultancy helping businesses better understand the vegan consumer and succeed in the vegan marketplace.
Lisa and David also write the monthly business column for the UK’s biggest Vegan magazine, Vegan Food & Living as well as being the official UK agents for The Vegan Society’s Vegan Trademark.

The Vegan Taxidermist: Interview with Beth Hart
Beth is an artist who makes what looks like antique anatomical studies out of all-vegan fabrics which you can buy to add a little macabre humour to your life! However, she also uses her creations to open up conversations about veganism with the public who see her work. Lisa talks to Beth about how she first tested, and then created, such a unique business idea.
Why every successful vegan business needs to build a tribe
To build a successful business, you need a group of followers who absolutely cannot live without your product and believe in your vegan mission. These people will help you spread your message and attract more people who also love what you are doing. They will become your brand ambassadors. They will become your ‘tribe’.
Help us define the future of Vegan Business Tribe with our members’ survey
Before the world got turned upside down with Coronavirus, Vegan Business Tribe was going to launch as a paid-for content site. However – in the few months since we’ve opened up the site for free to help business during the lockdown, we have been overwhelmed by the amount of humbling feedback. How can we put up a paywall if that means only a fraction of vegan businesses would get access to this content that’s helping so many?

Branding your vegan business: Interview with Will Saunders
In this video, we talk with ethical branding expert Will Saunders about how to brand a vegan business. Will has helped many vegan businesses through his agency Good Will Studios, and explains how you can create a brand that speaks to your customers and the tools you can use to find your own brand voice.
How can you help Vegan Business Tribe?
There are lots of ways you can help our growing community, from telling other vegan businesses about VBT to helping us organise a virtual meet-up with other local vegan businesses in your area. David explains how you can get more involved, and promote your own vegan business at the same time.
Why focus is the missing ingredient in making your vegan business a success
Maybe you’re starting a vegan business but you’ve spent ages inching towards getting it ready to launch. Or perhaps you already have a vegan business but it’s not flying like you know it could be. If you’re full of ideas but don’t have the time to do them all well then it’s time to make some changes.
