Wholesale food supplier Brakes has introduced a new Sysco Simply Plant Based range this month in celebration of Veganuary.

The Sysco Simply Plant Based range will initially launch with five plant-based centre-of-plate products, aiming to provide delicious alternatives to traditional meat meals.

These include four savoury tart variants – vegetable tagine, grilled vegetable and harissa chickpea, grilled vegetable and sundried tomato and sweet potato and red onion marmalade – as well as a chestnut and seed roast.

Over the coming 18 months, Sysco Simply Plant Based will grow to offer more than 50 products as it expands to include cakes and desserts, vegan sausage rolls and other meat alternatives.

The launch forms part of Brakes’ Veganuary campaign, which has seen the development of a Veganuary 2024 section on the company’s website, showcasing available support packages for foodservice businesses who want to capitalise on Veganuary.

Mandy Van Hagen, marketing food manager at Brakes, commented: “Veganuary is a great time to showcase plant-based menus and appeal to a wide audience of not only non-meat eaters, but also those looking for a healthy start to the year”.

She added: “Our new Sysco Simply Plant plant-based products can elevate menus, provide choices and meet the demand for diverse and sustainable food options”.
