There has never been a more important time to add delicious and satisfying vegan dishes to your offering – and there are countless ways you can do this while keeping to your target profit margin.
Product development of vegan dishes has relied on old favourites like tofu, and while there’s plenty of space for tofu products on the market, there are innovative ingredients which can help you make vegan versions of your favourites or create something unique.
