Sixty Vegetarian And Vegan Foods Produced By Ethical Firm Redwood Awarded Halal Certification



30 August 2012

Sixty vegetarian and vegan friendly foods produced by award-winning ethical
food firm The Redwood Wholefood Company have been certified halal* by the
European Halal Development Agency (EHDA).

It is believed to be the first time that a vegan food manufacturer has been
awarded halal certification.  In 2010, Redwood was also awarded kosher
certification by the Manchester Beth Din.

"We sought halal certification because we wanted to make our vegetarian and
vegan friendly foods available to Muslims throughout the world" said Lee
Rockingham at Redwood, which makes plant-based foods under the VegiDeli,
Cheezly and Cheatin’ brand names.

Among the many different vegetarian and vegan friendly foods now halal
certified by the EHDA are Redwood’s animal-free alternatives to beef,
poultry, fish and cheese, including burgers and sausages, ‘bacon’, ‘fish’
fingers and ‘mozzarella’.

Owned by charity campaigner Heather Mills, Redwood was recently rated the
UK’s most ethical vegetarian foods provider by The Ethical Company
Organisation for the seventh year running.

All its foods are free from animal ingredients and derivatives as well as
cholesterol, artificial colours/preservatives, lactose, hydrogenated fats
and GMOs. 

In the UK, the range is sold through health food shops, selected
supermarkets and Redwood’s online store www.redwoodfoods.co.uk.
