Yoi co-founders Tosh Nakagawa and Ellie Wells said they were inspired to start the company after witnessing the growing trend of plant-based food and vegan lifestyles.
“We saw the opportunity and thought, ‘How can we apply our knowledge and experience in cultured dairy foods to create healthy and tasty plant-based cultured foods?'” Nakagawa said.
The company’s name is taken from the Japanese word for ‘good’.
Last month, PepsiCo released the fermented KeVita Prebiotic Shots range in the US.
