With PETA citing figures that reveal that the number of vegans in the UK is reportedly set to jump by a massive 327 per cent by next year, it looks like the only way is up when it comes to the UK’s food offering.
Figures cited by The Vegan Society also show that the UK meat-free market is estimated to grow from £559m in 2016 to £658m in 2021.
