Then I feel in love with a woman who was a vegetarian, so I tried out the vegetarian lifestyle and soon afterwards became a vegan. Back then it was difficult finding vegan foods and I stood in the grocery store wondering which products I could actually buy - and that is when I hit upon the idea of opening a vegan supermarket! We found a suitable location in Berlin, found investors, staff and products and in early 2011 I opened the first Veganz store in Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg neighbourhood.\"In six German cities, in addition to Prague and Vienna, the company offers vegan food. With its wholesale department, Veganz is by far the largest distributor of vegan products within the entire German market.In 2014, the company was as a finalist for the German Entrepreneur Of the Year Award.
