Plamil Foods

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Plamil Foods is a British company that specializes in the production and distribution of vegan and organic food products. The company was established in the early 1960s by Leslie Cross, vice-president of the Vegan Society. Plamil Foods is recognized as the first company in the UK, and one of the first in the world, to make and sell soya milk, which is now a staple of the vegan diet.

History[edit | edit source]

Plamil Foods was originally known as the 'Plantmilk Society' when it was founded in 1964. The society was formed in response to a call by Leslie Cross for the creation of a vegan society that would produce and distribute a plant-based alternative to cow's milk. The society later changed its name to 'Plantmilk Ltd.' and eventually to 'Plamil Foods'.

The company began producing soya milk in 1965, which was initially sold in powdered form to be mixed with water. Over the years, Plamil Foods expanded its product range to include other vegan and organic foods, such as chocolate, mayonnaise, and egg-free products.
