Industry experts and consumers have decided

15-Dec-2025

The winners of the V-Label Awards Germany 2025 have been announced: as last year, V-Label Germany has once again chosen the best plant-based products on the German market from around 100 entries. Industry experts and consumers voted in eight categories, from meat and fish alternatives to non-food innovations.

The experts from the nutritional organization ProVeg and the start-up center ProVeg Incubator evaluated the 100 or so entries with a V-Label license according to the criteria of marketing appeal, market potential, degree of innovation, sustainability and health. In the process, 27 finalists stood out and qualified for the tasting by the expert jury with representatives from the food industry, science and gastronomy. Consumers then voted for their favorites in a public vote. The jury tasting and public voting were taken into account in equal measure in the final evaluation and earned the following products one of the coveted V-Label Awards:
