Every month we feature one of our members in our business column in Vegan Food & Living, the UK’s best-selling vegan magazine:

Does any of this sound familiar:

You have a great idea for a vegan business but want to validate your idea..
You've been trying everything but you are struggling to get your vegan business off the ground...
You need new ideas of how to find more customers...
You spend all your time working IN your business and are struggling to make the time to work ON your business...
You want others to talk to others about your vegan business because you feel you're doing everything on your own...

This is why we built Vegan Business Tribe. We were frustrated seeing so many great vegan businesses, just like yours, not able to get access to the advice they needed from people who understood why they had a vegan business. But it’s not enough just to have a vegan business. You cannot help us to move towards a vegan world unless you have a SUCCESSFUL vegan business. Well, don’t worry – you have now found your tribe.

Tips: Managing the conflicts of having non-vegan employees in your vegan business

Vegan companies will naturally attract vegan employees – but legally you cannot stipulate that people working for you must be vegan. This can lead to conflict in the workplace, but it can also be managed well.

How buying behaviours change throughout the vegan journey

You might have thought that if you create a vegan product that it will be attractive to all vegans, but the reality is that our buying behaviours change as we continue along our vegan journey.

Understanding the vegan & plant-based marketplace

The market for vegan products and services is booming – but what’s the real size of the marketplace and what’s really driving that growth? The answer might not be what you think.

What criteria does your product have to meet to be vegan?

There can be real confusion about what criteria your product or service has to meet to be vegan. David explains exactly what it takes for a product to be vegan and how we can give customers reassurance.

Tribe chat: We discuss should you label your product vegan or plant-based?

Why are some products called vegan, and why are others called plant-based? And which should you use when promoting your product or service?

Your ethics will help you compete against big brands

A lot of big brand names are moving into the vegan sector at the moment making it harder for smaller vegan businesses to compete. But you CAN compete if you build your company on the ethics that vegans care about.

Tribe Chat: Live from Plant Powered Expo 2020

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 high street brands and large food companies better understand the vegan consumer. 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.

We launched Vegan Business Tribe at the start of 2020 as a place to offer support for vegan businesses – but then the Covid-19 pandemic hit, and we simply had to do everything we could to make our main content free and accessible to as many vegan businesses as possible.

We’ve succeeded! And the amount of success stories and new friends we’ve made along the way has been phenomenal! Read our full story here >
