The Vegan Butcher in Brussels
The Vegan Butcher’s Choice kicks off in 2019 when Federica and Benoit decide to launch the very first plant-based butcher in Belgium. Driven by the goal of reducing meat consumption, we want to show the world that you can have meat ‘alternatives’ that are high in nutrition, tasty, and diverse: we have something for everyone!
Today The Vegan Butcher is a known and valued producer of artisanal ‘meats’ and ‘cheeses’, and a reputable caterer in the capital Brussels. Among our top selling products there is vegan bacon, award winning ribs and even prepared meals.

Why vegan?
For the climate
The special report on climate change and land by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) describes plant-based diets as a major opportunity for mitigating and adapting to climate change ― and includes a policy recommendation to reduce meat consumption.
For the animals
A staggering 750 billion animals are killed every year, mostly fish and chickens. One person can have a big impact, saving around 100 animals' lives every year. What we do to animals is not something to be proud of, and causes tremendous suffering. Plant-based 'meat' and 'cheese' are solutions to this problem.
For your health
Governments, institutions and citizens are getting more and more aware of the health benefits of a plant-based diet. "Vegetarians and vegans are at reduced risk of certain health conditions, including ischemic heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, certain types of cancer, and obesity." (Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics)
Why is eating plant-based food so important?
Currently, around 80% of all the agricultural land is used to grow food for animals, which turn into meat. If everyone would turn to a plant-based diet, around 3 billion! hectares of land would free up. When we plant forests on that land, those trees would remove about 800 billion tonnes of CO2 over 100 years. While there is more to be done to stop climate change, changing what we eat is an important step towards saving our planet from reaching a critical temperature.
We understand that changing habits can be difficult. That’s why we aim to satisfy the cravings for meat: we want to give people a ‘plant-based meat experience.’
