India's Largest Hostel Chain Zostel Launches Vegan Menu In 8 Locations
Zostel, one of the largest hostel chains in Asia, will serve vegan food options at cafeterias in eight locations: Agra, Gokarna, Jodhpur, Rishikesh, Udaipur and Varanasi in India, and Kathmandu and Pokhara in Nepal.
Animal rights organization Vegan Outreach initiated a partnership with Zostel as part of its Green Tuesday campaign, which aims to help institutions reduce animal-based foods in favour of vegan options.
Vegan Outreach is an international nonprofit that aims to reduce animal suffering by promoting a vegan lifestyle through educating and providing resources to the public, and increasing the accessibility of vegan food.
The inclusion of a new vegan menu in these 8 locations will result in more plant-based foods being accessible to thousands of people and was launched after the success of a similar campaign in November 2018 at Zostel Agra.
“Zostel has always been about letting individuals make their choices and follow their hearts,” said Dharmaveer Chauhan, Co-founder and CEO of Zostel. Chauhan continued, “With the help of Vegan Outreach, we provided our chefs and the community with information about vegan food and its preparation. Being able to offer such options to travellers from all over the world would never have been possible without the Vegan Outreach team. We are thrilled for this initiative and look forward to continuing this campaign towards sustainable travel…”
"Globally and in India, people are adopting a vegan diet as a healthy and sustainable alternative for themselves and the environment,” said Richa Mehta, India Campaigns Manager for Vegan Outreach. “This initiative by Zostel will not only cater to numerous vegan tourists travelling in India but also set a milestone for the inclusive and sustainable hospitality industry."
