REWE receives the PETA Vegan Award 2025 in the "Best Vegan Variety" category. The award is dedicated to the "REWE voll pflanzlich" test market.
"The concept deeply impressed us with its innovative and consistently vegan products, its impressive brand strategy and the convincing overall appearance," PETA said. The plant-based supermarket is a "special, unique and innovative pilot project".
Carefree shopping without checking ingredients
Our "REWE voll pflanzlich" delivers what its name promises: the store opened in April 2024 with a range of over 2,700 exclusively vegan products. An average of 5,500 customers visit the grocery shop in Berlin-Friedrichshain every week. "We have all put so much passion into creating this special store. The aim was and is to make plant-based shopping easy for everyone. The award from PETA as a committed animal welfare organisation is therefore a great honour for us," says a delighted Project Manager Isabell Kroll.
Baked goods and fresh creams made in the store are particularly popular at "REWE voll pflanzlich". The private labels REWE Bio + vegan and REWE Bio are prominently represented. These include REWE's most successful plant-based products such as oat drink, smoked tofu and falafel balls. The entirely plant-based range makes it easier for customers who follow a vegan diet to choose. They appreciate carefree shopping without having to check the ingredients of the products.
