Founder Speaks-

“With the exponential interest in a plant-based diet which is increasingly becoming evidence-driven, we are witnessing a huge shift in consumption where people have started to reject animal sources of food for plant-based sources instead.  More and more people are adopting a plant-based lifestyle for its benefits to the human health, the environment and/or for animals. Plant-based food is the future of food as its the need of the hour if we want to address the biggest questions we are facing currently, i.e. how to tackle climatic change and how to feed a population of 10 billion by 2050.”
 
– Sweta Khandelwal, Co-founder & Chief Operating Officer, Alt foods, New Delhi
