Deep dives

Start with a Mission

Launching a vegan business should involve a mission that goes beyond simply offering vegan products. Successful businesses are those that inspire others and connect with a broader purpose, which in turn attracts customers and supporters. For example, a company like Re-farmed not only produces oat milk but also helps dairy farmers transition to plant-based milks while creating sanctuaries for farm animals. This mission-driven approach enhances credibility, fosters community support, and encourages word-of-mouth marketing.
