Now in its eighth year, the NZ Vegan Sausage & Deli Awards brings together producers from New Zealand and around the world — all available to buy locally — competing across categories from breakfast sausages and hotdogs to chorizo, pastrami, cold cuts, and innovative seafood-style creations. The Innovation Category spotlights forward-thinking makers using jackfruit, tempeh, konjac, and fungi to push plant-based craft to new heights. Hosted by the Vegan Society of Aotearoa, the event celebrates just how far and wide the plant-based deli counter has grown.
Tip: Products must be available to buy in Aotearoa — check the Vegan Society of Aotearoa website for entry deadlines if you're a producer, or follow their channels to see the winners announced.
