Veganios - The Company:
We are a start-up based in Sonoma County, California. During the Covid pandemic, as our shopping shifted completely online, Ekaa came up with the idea to create a sustainability and climate-focused online store for only vegan and plant-based products. Over the thanksgiving break in 2021, she and her dad, Anurag, got to work and developed this online marketplace.
Their vision is to create a marketplace which promotes and sells a range of climate-friendly, plant-based, organic, non-GMO products. In addition, every dollar spent by consumers promotes and contributes towards the sustainability and climate friendly policies of our world.
