Likewise a survey from Ingredion and consultants Opinaia, indicates that 78% of the Argentine population is willing to increase consumption of products elaborated from vegetables.

“With the new Mega NotBurger, Mostaza is taking the Argentine fast food to another level, we are pioneers with this product, we are signaling a huge difference and a significant advance in the category of innovation and inclusion”, marketing manager Leandro Castorani underlined.
NotCo Argentina country manager Mauricio Alonso pointed out that the alliance with fast food chain Mostaza is a milestone for the company, for the plant-based industry which is growing very fast in recent years in the country.
