The different types of plant-based customers, and how what they buy changes along their vegan journey.
Smashing your stereotypes of who customers are for vegan products.
Why having a vegan product is no longer a unique selling point.

Examples of vegan businesses who have created a real point of difference through:

– Launching a movement, not just a business.
– Giving vegans something they thought they couldn’t get.
– Creating a vegan experience you can’t get elsewhere.
– By being truly remarkable.
