One of the daily struggles of being vegan in India is the serious dearth of distribution companies that deliver vegan products of all types to the doorstep. But that's history now. Drum roll... Introducing India's first exclusively vegan distribution company - Vegan World! It is primarily a B2B distribution company that deals directly with vegan brands and supplies essential vegan products to retail stores and to homes via delivery partners like Swiggy and retails stores. Vegan World works just like any other distributor in a supply management chain, but solely for vegan products.

The distribution company aims to bridge the gap in the supply of essential vegan goods in the Eastern part of India, starting with Kolkata and West Bengal state. Vegan World kick-started its services on 1 March 2020 with two retail stores in Kolkata and expanded operations since its launch. Currently, it's operational in Kolkata and Siliguri, and will be soon making vegan goodies accessible for vegans in the district towns of Barrackpore, Kalyani, Nabadwip, Howrah, Durgapur and Midnapur in West Bengal. It has tied up a over 25 (whoa!) retail stores as well as Spencer's retail chain that now sell vegan products in their stores in Kolkata. Thanks to this, vegans in Kolkata can find vegan goodies across the city, from Rajarhat and Alipore to Salt Lake today!

There's more good news. The distribution company has plans to branch out to other parts of the country! It has plans to start operations in Gangtok in Sikkim and Patna in Bihar next.

 

ARRAY OF VEGAN GOODIES

Coming to the product range that Vegan World offers, customers can choose from a wide range of daily essential goods like nut milks, vegan butter, cheese, mayo, spread, icecreams, chocolates, mock meat including mock fysh, snacks and more. To know about the various vegan brands it partnered with, visit its website.

HOW TO BUY?

People can use Swiggy or simply go to the company's website or Instagram page, and find the nearest store by using the website's store locator feature. Customers can also order from the e-commerce partner-stores listed on its website and Instagram page.

 

HOME DELIVERY

For delivery at the doorstep, Vegan World has tied with many e-commerce retail outlets based in West Bengal and with delivery partners like Swiggy.

 

FINALLY AFFORDABLE

Thanks to Vegan World, buying daily essential vegan products in Kolkata has just got a whole lot affordable. "Prior to March 2020, Kolkata didn't know that vegan icecream, vegan cheese, vegan mayo, vegan butter etc., exist in retail chains and shops. There was an understanding then that, to lead a vegan life, everything has to be made at home or was very expensive to afford because the products were imported and almost half the retail stores sold these products at high rates. Vegan World has made Indian vegan products available at affordable, pocket-friendly prices. That's the win!!", informs Vegan World owner Madhuja Dey.

 

BEHIND THE SCENES

Vegan World was the brainchild of Madhuja Dey who started the venture earlier this year. Madhuja recounts how Vegan World came to being by saying, "I love to eat and cook. While transitioning to veganism, I was vegan-ising many recipes but I faced the problem of not being able to find vegan products and ingredients in this part of the country. I realised that if someone even wants to try a vegan lifestyle, it's difficult to sustain doing so because of the scarcity and lack of vegan products and ingredients here. I wondered what could make it easier for people to transition to veganism. I knew daily vegan essentials had to be first become available here. I decided to bring them to Kolkata and only a distributor can do that, so I created Vegan World. My vegan-curious family with my mom, husband and mom-in-law have been my pillar of support behind the scenes."
