Although we know vegan staples can be found in some supermarkets across the Klang Valley, having grocers specific to just vegan or vegetarian goods can be helpful. No more glancing through the ingredient list of every product; shop with your peace of mind.
Whether you’ve just started a plant-based diet, doing meatless Mondays, or you’re already a veteran vegan queen, we hope this list helps you find the grocer of your dreams!
1. Vegan District, Kota Damansara
Operated by vegans for vegans, this grocer is the ONE place where you’ll possibly find everything you need! From vegan cheeses, butter, meats, and frozen baked goods to local chilli pastes, be prepared for your jaw to drop in amazement. For the busy folks, Vegan District offers a delivery service for Kuala Lumpur and Selangor areas. Simply add-to-cart on their website and select your delivery date and time before checkout.

2. Green Bamboo Organic, Taman Desa
Having served the Old Klang Road community for 16 years, you know you can count on Green Bamboo for your organic and plant-based needs.

3. Clean Eating Grocer, Damansara Jaya
You’ll find a huge range of organic, vegetarian, and vegan options at Clean Eating Grocer. An interesting selection of mock meats here is worth trying; I spy vegan salmon and vegan prawn. Plus, during the Dragon Boat Festival each year, this grocer makes vegan organic sticky rice dumplings — definitely not something to miss out on.

Attention, citizens of Bukit Jalil! Miyosi Mart is the neighbourhood vegan grocer for you, being only a two-minute walk from Pavilion Bukit Jalil. This meatless mart stocks the basic frozen, dry, and packaged vegan goods, so you’ll be all set in that department. A Vietnamese coffee kiosk is also tucked inside the store for the caffeine-lovers to enjoy.

5. Yolek Fresh, SS14 Subang Jaya & Old Klang Road
The original Yolek Vegetarian & Organic Mart on Old Klang Road has now expanded into Subang Jaya! With over 30 years of experience in selling vegetarian products, the new Yolek Fresh in SS14 looks well-stocked and ready to go.
Although their name and focus are on vegetarian goods, most of what they carry is vegan-friendly too. If you’re in the Subang area, definitely drop by to check them out.

6. VickedGood, Damansara Perdana
Yes, this is not a grocer, BUT a vegan bakery should definitely be a grocery stop to stock up on some pantry staples too! VickedGood makes bread, desserts, and pizzas at their two-year-old bakery. The bakery may be somewhat new, but co-founders Sita Lakshmi and Sheila Philip have been kneading dough for over a decade each.
You can take baking classes with them too, which you can book through their website. For those having hankerings for a vegan afternoon tea, pre-book a slot for you and a friend to indulge in a cruelty-free spread.
Address: C108, Centre Wing, next to UOB Bank, Metropolitan Square, Jalan PJU 8/1, Damansara Perdana, 47820 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
