BOL Foods is a plant-based food company founded in 2015 by Paul Brown, former Innocent executive turned BOL founder and CEO. Based at WeWork 5 Merchant Square in London, the team makes 100% plant-powered meals — from power shakes to one-pot lunches — designed to make nutritious eating accessible and genuinely enjoyable.
Inside BOL's story:
• Riding a growing market — the plant-based food market is projected to reach £68.67 billion ($85 billion) by 2030, and BOL is positioning itself as a category leader
• Continuous improvement — BOL applies the KAIZEN™ methodology to every product, exemplified by its Power Shakes: a nutritionally complete meal with over 20 grams of protein and 26 essential vitamins and minerals, no added sugar or preservatives
• Growing with WeWork — the team moved from a smaller co-working space into WeWork 2 Eastbourne Terrace in 2019, then expanded into a larger private office at 5 Merchant Square in 2022 as headcount grew past 25
• The Veg Pad — BOL's customized WeWork space, described by the team as core to its culture, creativity, and ability to attract talent
• A foodie team, always creating — from trialling recipes to filming content to hosting retail partners, the space flexes to match BOL's varied day-to-day work
BOL Foods is one of many mission-driven companies made at WeWork. Read more about BOL Foods and how WeWork's flexible workspace solutions helped their business: wework.com/made-at-wework/bol-foods
