ABOUT US

Veg-An (pronounced “Veggie An") is a home-based cloud kitchen founded on 15 Jan 2021, offering authentic Japanese vegan bento. It is operated by husband-and-wife team Kennard and Tomoe, who are highly passionate about promoting plant-based diet and vegan lifestyle to combat climate change and improving animal welfare. The name Veg-An is a word play on the word “Vegan”. In Japanese, “An” mean a small secluded hut, which is similar to our home.

As the R&D chef of Veg-An, Tomoe works to recreate authentic Japanese home-cooked flavours using plant-based ingredients. She handles all food preparation and personally puts together each and every bento set, to ensure their taste and quality. On the other hand, Kennard manages the business development aspect of Veg-An, utilising his experience and network as a business consultant to source for quality plant-based ingredients from Japan, to be incorporated into their menu.

Veg-An is committed to supporting the local farming communities and SMEs in Japan, and they partner Japanese companies to import plant-based products and ingredients from Japan. Besides supporting Japanese products and businesses, Veg-An also hopes for more omnivores and flexitarians to explore vegan cuisine, and to consider incorporating plant-based eating into their regular diet, to help build a kinder world and also leave behind a more sustainable planet for our future generation.
