Welcome to Vegan America — A New Way to Shop Plant-Based

At Vegan America, we’re building something bold — a curated, trusted marketplace that unites the best vegan-friendly brands across food, fashion, cosmetics, and more.
Why? Because plant-based living in the U.S. should be easier, more inspiring, and more accessible to everyone.
Right now, incredible vegan brands are out there — but they’re scattered. So we asked: What if they all lived in one place? A space built for the community, by the community. A place you could trust.
That’s what Vegan America is.
Discover the Future of Plant-Based Shopping
From high-end vegan leather shoes made in Milan to cruelty-free face creams from Korea to delicious U.S.-made vegan chocolates — you’ll find it all here, in one place.
Explore. Shop. Support.
Check out the brands already on board, try something new, and support this growing movement with your next purchase. Shipping is on us — for the next 48 hours.
This is more than a marketplace. It’s a movement.
For the animals. For the planet. For each other.
Let’s change the way America shops vegan — together.

The Rise of Plant-Based Skincare
The global beauty industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Driven by shifts in consumer behavior, rising environmental awareness, and a demand for ethical transparency, plant-based skincare is rapidly becoming a dominant force in the cosmetics world. Vegan skincare—defined as skincare products formulated without animal-derived ingredients and often manufactured without animal testing—is now far more than a niche category. It’s a mainstream movement reshaping consumer priorities, retail strategies, and ingredient innovation across the globe.

Whether you're firing up the grill or cooking on the stovetop, this recipe is the perfect way to honor the day with bold flavor and compassion.
What Makes These Vegan Burger Patties Special?
These aren’t your average veggie burgers. Built from black beans, brown rice, and a mix of bold spices, they deliver serious texture and taste while staying totally plant-based. Thanks to vital wheat gluten, they hold together like a dream, giving you that firm, chewy bite you expect from a great burger. Infused with sautéed garlic and onion, and a hit of umami from tomato paste and soy sauce, these patties are packed with flavor and easy to customize.
