Veggly, the world’s leading dating app for vegans and vegetarians, has released new data revealing the world’s best hotspot countries for vegan dating. The popular app reports rapid growth over the past two years, reaching almost 400,000 global users (16x growth since July 2019), in 181 countries including Brazil, Canada, Australia, Korea, and Denmark.
“It’s great to see lots of new vegan dating communities growing in other countries around the world. There has never been a better time to be a vegan looking for love!”
Veggly is set to continue its rapid growth thanks to teams of vegans who have worked together to translate the app into 8 languages: English, Spanish, German, Portuguese, French, Italian, Danish and Polish, with more languages on the way.

The UK has landed in the top place for the second year in a row due to having the highest number of users in relation to population. At present, the UK has well over 45,000 (45,633) users on Veggly, meaning there are nearly 700 (685) users per million people in the country.
The Netherlands is close behind the UK with the second-highest number of users in relation to population (601 users per million people).
Germany places third thanks to a strong user base of 46,375, which means there are nearly 560 Veggly users per million people in the country. Spain is fourth with a figure of 435 users per million.
Overall, the United States has the highest number of Veggly users, with 60,158, but has a much higher population than the UK (328million vs 67million), so scores lower on the ranking list. Brazil has the second most users overall with over 51,000.
Commenting on the new rankings data, Founder of Veggly, Alex Felipelli, said: “The UK is an excellent hotspot for herbivores looking for romance and new relationships. The user base there has almost doubled in the last 10 months. It’s also great to see lots of new vegan dating communities growing in other countries around the world. There has never been a better time to be a vegan looking for love!
“We will build on this success and continue to re-invest in Veggly further. The ultimate goal is to provide the best dating app possible for vegan and vegetarian communities, making sure everyone feels welcome and finds love. We will do everything we can to help these hotspots grow all over the world and build new ones by making the Veggly app accessible to everyone.
