HISTORY &
CONCEPT
Lekker Vegan is a Plant Based, gourmet, junk food franchise which
started its first restaurant in the heart of Cape Town back in 2017.
The founding partner, James Knaap is originally from the
Netherlands where he worked as a chef at a Vegan Junk Food
Bar and also ran a successful juice truck business in Amsterdam.
James has been coming to SA for over 20 years before moving
here to follow his dream of opening a vegan restaurant chain that
is accessible to everyone, everywhere.
He always wondered why there wasn’t a dedicated vegan junk
food franchise that could compete with McDonald’s at scale and
was therefore inspired to start his own. Lekker Vegan provides
vegan alternatives to the popular junk food you already love, from
hamburgers to nachos, gatsby’s, boeries, and even your favourite
desserts such as ice cream.
You don’t even have to be a vegan to enjoy Lekker Vegan’s
gourmet junk food.
It should be understood that the practice of creating plantbased
PERFECTING meat is nothing new. Chinese monks developed a
TASTE wheat-based meat alternative called Seitan as far back as
5,000 years and this process has been perfected over time.
At Lekker Vegan, we are rediscovering these types of meat substitutes that mimic and
sometimes even exceed the taste of meat. Ensuring plant-based meat is an attractive
alternative is a matter of getting two details right – texture and flavour. The texture is
constructed using a mixture of plant proteins which mirror animal meats like beef and
chicken, while flavour is derived from mixtures of herbs, spices and sauces.
Plant-based meat therefore offers one significant advantage over animal meat – you can
modify it from the inside, giving you more opportunities to create unique flavours and
proteins. This means it’s not only better for your own health and that of the environment
but is also the more flavoursome option.

THE VEGAN
LANDSCAPE
Lekker Vegan aims to be the original Vegan Fast Food Franchise chain in South Africa
and Worldwide.
A number of entrepreneurs and major companies have invested in vegan meat in recent years.
In 2020, nearly $1 billion was invested in the alternative protein space, according to the Good
Food Institute (GFI). Vegan food sales surged by 90% in the weeks leading up to April 2020,
compared to the same period last year, according to the Plant Based Foods Association (PBFA).
According to Pick n Pay, the interest in vegetarian and vegan aimed products has more than
doubled in the last six months of 2019, as the grocer increased its product range to include
dairy-free alternatives and vegan snack foods as well as whole meals.
According to the Veganuary Report 2020, over 650 new vegan products launched and over
550 new vegan options were added to restaurant menus. KFC UK sold over 1 million Vegan
burgers during 2020 Veganuary.
In January 2020, 1 in 3 people tried veganism
-> 72% stayed Vegan
-> Vegan takeout increased by 388%
