GREEN PANTRY

​

In a country dominated by meat options and processed fast-food, Jonel Ucab saw an untapped opportunity to promote affordable and healthy food while fusing traditional Filipino comfort foods to ensure mass-market acceptance. 

​

A vegeterian since birth and self-taught chef since before his teen years, Jonel created the Green Pantry from a combination of passion for plant based dishes and frustration at lack of meat-free options.

​

Less than one year after Green Pantry started, it has already captured over 30% of the local pre-packaged food market in Cebu and has exciting prospects to reach even more people in Cebu and beyond. We are excited to support Jonel on his journey to creating a healthier, meat-free Philippines!
