The launch of Vinpai on the Indian market is a first step in line with its objective to pursue its expansion in Asia. This strategic collaboration aims to support Enhance Gourmet Foods in the manufacture of vegan plant-based cheeses to meet the growing demand of the Indian market and benefit from Enhance Gourmet Foods' extensive distribution network throughout India.

In return, Enhance Gourmet Foods will lean on Vinpai's expertise in the manufacture of vegan products (cheese, butter, cream, etc.) in France.

Philippe Le Ray, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, stated: “We are extremely delighted to announce this partnership with Enhance Gourmet Foods, which demonstrates the confidence placed in our technology. This collaboration opens tremendous opportunities for us in the Indian market, where the growth in demand for plant-based products is very promising.
