Our Start and Next Steps
In March of 2016 we developed our first original Terra vegan meat patty and started selling our Terra Burgers out of a small food truck at the weekend farmer’s markets and events in various locations across Tokyo and Yokohama areas. We soon started receiving requests from customers who wanted to buy our meats and cheeses so we decided to start developing products for retail market. In May of this year, we launched our own “Marude Cheese” product and plan to introduce our other alternative meat and cheese products in the coming months.

The Founder
Ike is originally from Canada from both Japanese and Swiss heritage and has been living in Japan for a total of 20 years. Since a young age he has been a dedicated athlete of many sports – soccer, marathon, triathlon, trail running – and curious health nut. After coming back from a “fasting” retreat in Thailand he started his transition to a plant-based diet. He soon realized the advantages of a plant-based diet but also the hardships that go with it especially as a vegan in Tokyo especially his burgers and pizza! He realized he was not the only one so he decided to fill a need for a casual vegan food that anybody could enjoy. After a few experiments in the kitchen with some unique Japanese ingredients the Terra meat patty was born….to be continued.
