Vegetarian and vegan food in Germany / [prepared by Alexandre Perrault].: A74-3/2017-64E-PDF

"Vegetarian and vegan foods in Germany are increasing in popularity. In part, this reflects the fact that more consumers are adopting meat-free diets, but it is also a consequence of meat-eating German consumers consciously choosing to reduce their consumption of animal products due to increased awareness of the health and environmental issues linked to meat consumption. Vegetarian-labeled foods are becoming increasingly prevalent on German grocery store shelves: more and more products are being released with vegan or vegetarian claims. While some merely mention that they are suitable for vegans or vegetarians, others bear official logos from the European Vegetarian Union. Vegans as a consumer group have become significant enough in numbers to sustain vegan-centred grocery stores: Veganz, Europe’s first vegan-only grocery chain, was founded in Berlin in 2011 and now operates ten locations in three countries. This report contains an overview of the Veganz chain, since it represents a new kind of retail experience and reflects the new consumer realities of Germany”--Intro., p. 2.
