Swedish vegan brand Oatly has installed a huge billboard at London’s Waterloo station to promote veganism.

Even as the demand for the company’s oat-based milk continues to soar, the brand is trying innovative ways to get more people to go vegan.

Its latest campaign includes a huge advertisement post erected above cafes and turnstiles at central London’s busiest metro station.

The Waterloo station has an average footfall of around two hundred and fifty thousand people daily and commuters were treated to not only a huge signage reading “Go ahead, eat like a vegan,” but Oatly also handed out free samples of oat-based ice cream which it served from a bright pink and white ice cream truck parked at the station on Tuesday.

The billboard campaign follows the launch of three vegan ice cream flavors in Tesco supermarkets last month.

“It’s ice cream. And it’s pretty common knowledge that ice cream makes everyone happy. Then add in good vibes from the fact that all three flavors are made without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources. Wow,” said a brand spokesperson at the launch.

With the vegan market projected to scale $140 billion in sales by 2029, the demand for plant-based foods continues to motivate companies to come up with innovative alternatives to cater to the growing market.

IKEA vegan ice cream ??? . It’s November and it’s bitterly cold, so here’s some tasty frozen dessert for you to look at. . It’s a little more on the sorbet side, but hey it’s 50p – that’s gotta be worth it for the nostalgia value alone, right? . Who else has tried it?

Last month, IKEA launched its Mr. Whippy-style vegan soft serve ice cream in Edinburgh.
