The event is for people of all ages, genders, nationalities, social and economic strata. It is aimed at those who are interested in the vegan lifestyle and would like advice and support in a pleasant and empowering environment. Visitors who simply wonder about what vegans eat are also welcome. The purpose of Vegan Fiesta Hellas is to answer questions and concerns that exist about veganism and to highlight the benefits it can offer to our health, the environment and the protection of animals. Through informative and entertaining events, it will prove that the vegan diet is suitable for everyone and has endless delicious, healthy and economical options. Meat alternatives, plant-based milks, and drinks will be highlighted at the event. Visitors will learn how to replace meat, eggs, and dairy in their favorite recipes (pizza, moussaka, souvlaki, gyros, stew, etc.) so they can continue to enjoy them with the same or better taste and without cholesterol or other harmful substances that animal derivatives have for our body. There will also be shower gels, shampoos, cosmetics, nail polishes, hair dyes, perfumes, creams and other care products that are ecological, dermatologically tested, certified vegan and not tested on animals. Shown as well will be clothing without fur, leather or wool, cleaning products for the home and other useful products for everyday life. In a special area, lectures on veganism and health, cooking seminars, yoga classes and many other events will take place. Participation in everything will be free. Vegan Fiesta Hellas is organized by the SivaOM association, a non-profit organization with extensive experience in similar animal welfare and charity activities. The purpose and vision of ShivaOM is Karma Yoga – selfless giving and service to man and animals. More information about the event and veganism is available at veganfiesta.gr, Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/veganfiesta.gr/) and Instagram (https://instagram.com/veganfiesta.gr/) .

At that time, super markets operating in Greece pledged to present a 'basket' of 50 different products necessary for a household's living for which they will seek to contain any price hikes. This pledge was made during a meeting between minister Georgiadis with representatives of super markets and food retailers. He had stated that next week he will meet with representatives from the food industry to seek a similar agreement. He also had noted that the meeting did not discuss a "freeze" on prices, and he had stressed that each company will pursue its own policy on prices: "We do not breach rules of fair competition. It is something that we would never do," he had added. The minister also noted that the measure will stay in effect for as long as the price hikes crisis lasts, and that relevant authorities will monitor prices every 2 weeks.

Israel’s Redefine Meat has struck a partnership with importer Giraudi Meats to drive European distribution – including in Greece – of its “New Meat” steak cuts produced on 3D printers, it said on Thursday. The start-up, which raised $170 million in a series A financing round this year, operates large-scale meat printers at its Rehovot headquarters south of Tel Aviv, and a new factory in the Netherlands, hoping to establish its products as an alternative to conventionally produced meat. Early hype about plant-based meat alternatives, seen as better for animals and the environment, has ebbed as inflation and recession worries make some consumers return to cheaper animal meat products, while staffing shortages have hit fast-food chains, an important sales channel for plant-based burger patties. US-based Beyond Meat has cut its sales outlook, although food giant Nestle, less exposed to quick-service restaurants, said consumer interest for its plant-based meat alternatives was still strong. Redefine Meat, which makes its products from ingredients including soy and pea proteins, chickpeas, beetroot, nutritional yeasts and coconut fat, has ambitious plans. “Our product is meat, it has the same attributes, it is just manufactured in a different way,” Co-founder and Chief Executive Eshchar Ben-Shitrit told Reuters, adding that production capacity would reach more than 15 tonnes a day this year. “The fact that our products are now being sold by Giraudi Meats, the same people who sell high-quality meat, shows that they are not compromise vegan products,” he said. Ben-Shitrit said Redefine Meat was launching tenderloin and striploin steaks and their adoption by chefs in expensive restaurants proved their quality. With Giraudi’s help, it will launch its products at restaurants and butchers in France this month, then in Italy, Greece and Sweden later this year, and in dozens more countries next year. Its New Meat is currently available in Israel, Britain, the Netherlands and Germany in almost 1,000 restaurants that are currently paying about 41 euros per kilo for Redefine Meat’s steak cuts, Ben-Shitrit said.
