We're excited to announce the launch of four new products under our vEEF brand, expanding our plant-based offerings to meet evolving consumer preferences: 1. Plant Based Beef Mince 2. Plant Based Classic Sausages 3. Plant Based Smokey Sausages 4. Plant Based Chorizo Sausages Key features of our new range: ✅ Premium taste: Developed by our expert culinary team ✅ Competitive pricing: $4.50 per 300g pack, matching or beating animal-based alternatives ✅ Environmental commitment: All products are carbon-neutral ✅ Local production: Crafted in Australia on the Sunshine Coast ✅ Health-forward: A good source of protein, with fibre, iron, and vitamin B12 Recent market trends show that 21% of Australians now identify as 'meat reducers'—the most popular diet choice in 2024 (Food Frontier 2024). This launch addresses the primary reasons consumers are reducing their conventional meat intake and looking for alternatives: health (61%), budget constraints (54%), and environmental concerns (37%) (Food Frontier, 2024). Our new range offers health-conscious, wallet-friendly, and environmentally sustainable alternatives to meet these evolving needs. 🌟 The new vEEF product range is now rolling out to Woolworths Supermarkets across Australia, from this week. 🌟 We congratulate our team at The Aussie Plant Based Co. for their passionate work in developing and executing this innovative range of products. 👏 ➡️ For more, check out our media release here: https://bit.ly/4eaqs3Q #PlantBased #Sustainability #FoodInnovation #AussieFood

Congratulations, Dr. David Fechner! 🏅 David recently participated in the Bravehearts 777 Marathon, where participants run 7 marathons in 7 days across 7 states to raise funds for Bravehearts, an organisation focused on preventing and treating child sexual abuse. During a conversation with our CEO, Alejandro Cancino, David described the experience as one of the most challenging and rewarding weeks of his life. We commend him for his dedication, and hard work in completing this extraordinary challenge alongside his brilliant fundraising efforts. Through his campaign, David raised a total of $12K, which will provide over 100 trauma-informed counseling sessions for children affected by sexual abuse. We were happy to support David's fundraising by providing vEEF Plant Based Premium Burger Patties for a delicious BBQ he organised with the Give a Fork team, at The The University of Queensland as part of his fundraising efforts. Thanks Jack Adams and Mei Wong from Give a Fork for your fantastic work and connecting us with David! ➡️ To our community: If you have a cause that could benefit from products made by The Aussie Plant Based Co., we are here to help. Reach out to our team and let us assist you in making a difference in the community. 💙

Did you know that studies have shown 65% of Gen Z consumers are interested in adopting a more plant-forward diet? This growing interest in plant-based foods among young consumers is impacting market trends and shaping the future of the food industry. 🌱 That's why our BUDS, Laura and Melissa, are at the Bidfood Schools Tradeshow this evening, engaging with school and college canteen managers. The event provides us a great opportunity to discuss how plant-based meats align with current trends, offer great taste and texture, and deliver impressive culinary performance. 💙 A big thank you to Michelle Stanley and the Bidfood Australia Ltd team for providing us with this valuable opportunity to network, gather feedback, and present our foodservice-exclusive brand - Love BUDS - to the school canteen community. #plantbased #LoveBUDS #schools
