The Vegan Grocery Store Returns to Sydney

After a long hiatus that left many of us wondering if we’d ever see it again, The Vegan Grocery Store has officially reopened its doors in Sydney! This much-loved vegan hub, which once served communities across Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, and the nation through its online store, is making a comeback with a fresh start and a new vision.

The store is now located at Shop 7, Town Hall Square, Sydney, bringing vegan essentials back to the heart of the city. While this reopening marks a scaled-back version of its former operations, there’s plenty to celebrate about the return of this cherished business.

A New Chapter for The Vegan Grocery Store

Earlier this year, The Vegan Grocery Store changed hands, with its new owners working hard to rebuild the brand after its closure. While the physical store in Sydney is currently the only location, plans are in the works to reintroduce an online store. This online offering will initially cater to selected postcodes within Greater Sydney, with further details expected to be announced soon.

This marks a significant pivot for the business, which previously shipped nationally and had a physical presence in multiple cities. Scaling back operations is a strategic move, allowing the new owners to focus on creating a sustainable and thriving business model, before hopefully growing the business from there.


What Can You Find at The Vegan Grocery Store?

Step inside the Sydney store, and you’ll be greeted by an abundance of vegan goodies. From indulgent vegan sweet treats perfect for satisfying your cravings to pantry staples that simplify meal prep, The Vegan Grocery Store remains a go-to destination for all your plant-based essentials. It's also the ideal spot to discover thoughtful vegan gifts, making it easier than ever to share the joy of cruelty-free living with friends and family.

Whether you’re a long-time vegan, exploring plant-based living, or just hunting for some delicious vegan snacks, this store is a haven for all things cruelty-free.

A Nostalgic Comeback for The Vegan Grocery Store

For those who remember the glory days of The Vegan Grocery Store, its reopening in Sydney is a bittersweet reminder of its past successes. While we no longer have locations in Melbourne or Canberra, nor the extensive nationwide online store we once loved, this smaller-scale reopening is a hopeful sign of what’s to come.

It’s exciting to think about the possibilities as the new owners rebuild and adapt the business for the future. The store remains a key player in supporting the vegan community and providing a space for plant-based shoppers to find high-quality products.



The reopening of The Vegan Grocery Store is a step forward for veganism in Australia, and I’m thrilled to see this iconic business make its return. While the online store is still on the horizon, having a physical location in the heart of Sydney is a great start.

For now, we’re looking forward to the delicious finds at Shop 7, Town Hall Square and staying tuned for updates about online delivery options.
