Adrian Ling is the CEO of Plamil Foods, the UK’s longest-running vegan food brand. Plamil’s founding director Arthur Ling (Adrian’s father) turned vegan in 1927, twenty-years before the term vegan was invented.

Plamil began trading in the 1960s, starting with plant-based milk before evolving into other products including the chocolate which they are now best known for. Not only is Plamil a vegan company run on vegan ethics, Adrian is a champion of ethical business and labour practices, committed to sustainability.
