Our Programme

The NZVS Product Approval Programme

• Makes vegetarianism easier – by making it simple to select suitable products. No more reading labels and interpreting ingredients!

• Sets the standards for vegetarian food and products in NZ.

• Contributes to raising health and environmental standards in NZ and reducing cruelty to animals.

• Undertakes ongoing research and development into the dietary and nutritional impacts of vegetarianism.

We’re strict with our approval process, as the Approval Programme will be effective only as long as it absolutely upholds the vegetarian standards upon which it is founded.
