Certifying Vegan Increases Sales
Vegan certification benefits: Of course there is the possibility for large companies to use their own vegan labels, but such a choice lacks the credibility and transparency the consumer seeks, and will seek as education around the topic and surrounding issues become more exposed and discussed. The fact of the matter is, consumer confidence in third-party vegan labeling entities is greater than self-proclaimed vegan product claims. Even with a defined vegan standard, people want to know the products they consume acted in the spirit of full transparency, have proven up their vegan claims, and are being held accountable to their vegan labeling on their vegan product packaging. With this in mind, the financial and marketing benefit of third party vegan certification with a widely recognized, known vegan certification symbol, that is globally trademarked, pays dividends in terms of sales.
According to Statista Research Department, the global market for ethically labeled packaged foods is estimated to be an almost trillion dollar industry. Vegan labeling is one of the most important factors affecting purchasing decisions, and therefore, for a nominal overall vegan certification fee, companies and products can multiply their sales by endorsing their commitment to consumer interests. A trusted vegan certification symbol on product packaging instills consumer confidence, which is a win-win, as that translates into increased sales for the company for that product. The marketing advantage and projected increased sales figures alone more than justifies the small certification fee.
Knowing this, when companies question the value of vegan certification and ask, “why should I get certified vegan, people already know we are vegan?”, the answer to this is and your reply should also be, “why wouldn’t you? There’s no downside to proving up your process and ingredients to a third party to hold suppliers and manufacturers accountable to their word, in order to gain the loyalty and trust of the interested consumer.”
