Kunal Mutha – Founder, Only Earth


Veganism is reshaping consumer preferences and challenging culinary traditions in the Indian food market.

More Indians are embracing a plant-based lifestyle due to concerns about health, ethics, and the environment, rejecting not only meat but also dairy and other animal-derived products. Restaurants and food brands are adapting to meet this rising demand by offering vegan options across traditional and modern establishments.

As a result, entrepreneurs are developing innovative plant-based products, from dairy alternatives to meat substitutes. It may be challenging to convince a traditionally vegetarian population to embrace veganism, but market disruptions show that Indian cuisine has the potential to be sustainable and ethical in the future. As the movement gains momentum, it is transforming the gourmand landscape and presenting both challenges and opportunities for businesses eager to cater to the evolving tastes of the Indian consumer.
Only Earth is a purpose-driven brand, that has a simple mission, to be kinder to the planet and healthier for people. Our goal is to remove animals out of the food consumption equation. And we do this, by offering a range of delicious plant-based products which are better for the planet (lower carbon emissions, lower consumption of water, animal-free) while focusing on our consumers’ health (Vegan, Soya Free, Lactose-Free, No Trans Fats, Cholesterol Free, preservative-free and Guilt Free) too.
