We’re recently been crunching the numbers and found that Aldi is the UK’s most Googled supermarket for Vegan food.
Analysing Google search data from the past 2 years we wanted to discover what vegan ranges are being searched for the most out of the UK's top supermarkets
Aldi places first as the most searched for supermarket when it comes to vegan food with an average of 2,900 searches a month.
The search term “Aldi vegan” receives on average 500 more queries per month than second-placed supermarket Tesco with 2,400 searches. Aldi on average receives three times as many searches as those in last place (Iceland & Co-op)
According to the research, joint last place was Iceland and Co-op with 880 average searches per month.

Veganuary is expected to drive up to a 56% increase in searches for Vegan Ranges
With Veganuary in action once again these supermarkets can expect an increase in search demand based on the research, Aldi for example can expect to receive over 6,000 searches in January, whilst Tesco can expect around 4,000.
If we compare what search volume was recorded in January 2021 vs the average we can see some clear spikes in demand for vegan food.
With Veganuary becoming more and more popular each year we may expect this increase to be even more in 2022.

Hello & Welcome 👋

Around the world, the human population has seen a huge rise in the popularity of the vegan diet. A vegan diet is one that relies exclusively on plant-based foods and omits any products that come from animals. For example, a vegan does not eat eggs, dairy, meat, or fish.
There are several reasons why people choose to be vegan. For some, it is part of a centuries-old cultural and religious tradition. For others, going vegan can be the right dietary choice to help inspire better eating habits. There are also those who become vegan due to moral or ethical objections to the way farm animals are raised for food in certain parts of the world.
Years ago, Easter presented very slim pickings for those who were vegan/and or gluten free with a sweet tooth. At best the supermarket aisle would have a selection of one or two choices, and often the online offerings weren’t readily available either, which sometimes meant looking on with envy across the Easter holiday period.
Although a lot of vegan foods are gluten-free, there are vegan foods that do contain gluten.
A vegan diet is based upon eating plants and excludes foods derived from animals, (this means no cheese, eggs, meat or fish.)
Veganism has had a rise in the last few years. More and more people are choosing to alter their diet to exclude foods derived from animals. But what about gluten? Can people who have celiac disease thrive on a vegan diet without it leading to nutrient deficiency? Is it possible to go vegan if you have celiac disease?
