At the beginning of 2018 The Vegan Society launched its ‘Vegan on the Go’ campaign, which wanted to get more plant-based options onto UK trains.
Virgin Trains, East Midlands Trains, Greater Anglia, Grand Central, Crosscountry, Great Western Railway and Hull Trains all provide vegan options since the launch of the campaign.
Elena Orde, Communications and Campaigns Officer at The Vegan Society, said: “We are very pleased to see so many train companies make positive changes to their vegan food and drink offering.
“These businesses are showing the way the market is going – vegans need to be catered for, and those who fail to recognise this risk missing out on a growing segment of the market.
“Vegan food options are inclusive of most dietary requirements and often promote sustainability. We’re looking forward to working with more businesses on this.”
The charity is targeting five more train companies and hoping to work with them on improving the vegan menus in the New Year.
And 2019 The Vegan Society will turn its attention to vegan food on-board planes, and ‘looks forward to seeing similar successes in this field’
