This year, a program providing seminars, workshops, and one-on-one consultations for Tokyo-based tourism-related businesses, such as restaurants, hotels, and retailers, has been relaunched.
This initiative, implemented by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, aims to enhance hospitality for tourists with diverse backgrounds and needs, including Muslim, LGBT+, and vegetarian/vegan individuals. Since 2019, VegeProject Japan has been the advisor in charge of vegetarian and vegan catering, actively promoting the expansion of vegan-related activities within the program.
If you are a business operator in Tokyo interested in starting vegetarian, vegan or plant-based catering, or if you want to improve your already-existing vegetarian or vegan options, please reach out to us via email (email: contact at vegeproject.org *replace “at” with “@”).
