From Marketing Executive to Vegan Cheese Entrepreneur with Lori Sroujian, founder of VEGCHEESE Made it Happen

This week's episode is featuring Lori Sroujian, founder of VEGCHEESE. Lori first started experimenting with faux-cheese recipes after a family health scare led her to reconsider what she was eating. What started as a personal quest to find a nutritious but delicious replacement for cheese eventually evolved into a side hustle — and in 2018, VegCheese became Lori’s full-time enterprise.

VEGCHEESE line of artisanal vegan cheeses are 100% dairy free, nut free and gluten free. Their cheeses are handcrafted in Ontario, Canada with a base of organic soy milk and organic coconut oil. We discuss how this business came to be, the challenges and milestones they’ve faced in the food industry, what she would have todl herself when first starting out, and much more!
