We profile the company as it is recognised in the Australian Enterprise Awards 2024 for its innovative and sustainable food range. Plant-Based Food Company of the Year 2024 “Plantein was created to help everyday humans live a more balanced life without having to compromise on great tasting food.” – Evan Tsioukis, Founder Founded by Evan Tsioukis, Flexitarian Foods, the mother company of many well-known brands in Australia, is an industry veteran with great knowledge of what makes food taste good and what customers want. With the help of the best food experts and culinary gurus in Australia, Flexitarian Foods invented Plantein, a plantbased food range designed to meet the daily nutritional requirements of a person. This food has an excellent reputation for being creative and looking and tasting like the real thing. Flexitarian Foods is constantly studying plant-based industry trends in order to innovate new products, flavours, and recipes and keep up with global market demands. It has many varieties of delicious plant-based food available, including schnitzel, nuggets, burgers, garlic kievs, chicken tenders, and more, which are tastier and healthier than the conventional fast-food. Being all about flexible food choices for everyone, whether vegetarian, vegan, or nonvegetarian, the company uses the power of protein to produce delicious, meat-free alternatives, so that no one has to give up on required nutrition, even on a nomeat day. Likewise, with sustainability being a key pillar of Plantein, the company is also constantly looking out for more eco-friendly ways of producing its packaging. “We’re all about flexible eating: swapping your meat for something healthy, sustainable, and delicious.” For its food expertise, Flexitarian Foods has diverse clientele including large supermarket chains like Woolworths and IGA, and food and retail chains like YOGM, Lord of Fries, Soul Origin, and more. Furthermore, it plans to continue its innovation and develop new products and recipes in order to further grow globally by growing its brand presence and setting up manufacturing facilities in other countries around the world. Besides, the company always has more opportunities to grow and fewer limitations, as it is owned, manufactured, and marketed by the same founders. It has full control in all of its operations and developments, for which it can produce the best quality food with high protein, low sodium, and saturated fat, while keeping prices affordable. Ultimately, Flexitarian Foods’ contribution towards sustainability and health is truly remarkable, making it a worthy winner of APAC Insider’s Plant-Based Food Company of the Year 2024 award. And as it continues to live up to its vision statement of being “the most innovative food company, delivering the highest value and sustainable products to our millions of loyal customers”, this food company is sure to succeed for a long time to come.
