About Us

As a life-long cheese addict I thought ditching dairy a few years ago would spell the end of my love affair with all things cheesy and good.  

After much experimenting in the kitchen I began to develop recipes for plant-based cheese that would quench even my long-standing cheese palette and thus Kinda Co. was born!

What started in Oct 2017 as a one woman enterprise, based out of a tiny flat in Islington, London and selling at local markets, has now grown to a commercial vegan cheese kitchen in North Somerset. We currently make 14 varieties of dairy free cheese and sell at shops nationwide as well as through our website, Abel & Cole, and at markets across the south of England

Our vegan cheeses won 9 Great Taste Awards, a Taste of the West Gold Award and we are thrilled to have 5* reviews across Trustpilot, Google, Facebook and on our own Online Shop.

In 2021 I launched KindAcademy, my Online Vegan Cheese Masterclass, where you can learn to make your own delicious vegan cheese at home, and I also teach cheesemaking classes in person at River Cottage. 

Welcome to Kinda Co.!
