I've had a great idea for our local greengrocer's shop in Chipping Sodbury. It's called Ian's and is a traditional greengrocer's shop that's in competition with some half dozen supermarkets in the surrounding locale. He should cash in on the increasing trend for vegetarianism and veganism by calling it Ian's Vegan Vegetables.
I know it's implicit in the name greengrocer, but marketing is marketing and a lot of people are not the full shilling.
That said, there's an argument that some vegetable crops aren't fully vegan, as they make use of truck loads of bees being shipped around in an exploitative manner to pollinate them, although not all ethical vegans agree.
One thing that can be said for Ian's is that the quality of his veg is superb and the cost is a lot less than in the supermarkets. A tenner will get us all the fruit and veg we need for a week.
