Veggie Wave is an eco-friendly kiosk that delivers premium
sustainability
"our commitment to sustainability comes from our deep connection to nature. as surfers, we have always felt it essential to protect our environment and ocean which have given us both so much"
As a sustainable brand, we deliver premium healthy juices while minimizing our environmental footprint. Our eco-friendly practices include the reduction of plastic use, fruit waste and electricity.
NO ELETRICITY
We developed an electricity-free system that allows us to work anywhere, anytime. We use a bike as an energy generator to blend our juices and cold-press ingredients. It converts human energy through a customised gear system that transfers the energy from the pedals directly to the blender and juice extractor. We also use a solar panel to charge our speaker that plays nice music all day.
LESS WASTE
We refuse to accept the current production model that generates tons of trash everyday. We will always be committed to find ways to reduce food wastage and bring more incredible flavors to our kiosks. We recycle and reuse fruit peelings and leftovers. For example, instead of heading for the compost, our crushed ginger, beetroot shavings, orange rinds, and lemon zest infuse delicious flavors into tea bags.
LESS PLASTIC
Our cups, straws and lids are made of PLA, a biodegradable material derived from corn and rice flour. It means that if our products unfortunately end up on the beach, they will decompose naturally in under 80 days.

OUR STORY
veggie wave was founded by niccolo bagarotto and riccardo ferragamo, two surfers who wanted to capture their passion for healthy eating. their adventure with veggie wave began during the summer of 2017 as a roadside juice bar that quickly attracted attention.
NICCOLò BAGAROTTO, founder
Born and raised in Bologna, the culinary capital of Italy, Niccolò has always had a deep appreciation for music, nature, and food. As a young man, Niccolò pursued a formal culinary education at the Cordon Bleu in London where he quickly rose to the top of his class. Upon graduating, Niccolò secured internships at some of the world's most prestigious and unique restaurants and spent four years traveling the world honing his skills and immersing himself in different cultures. Despite his love for the kitchen, Niccolò was appalled by the food waste and the industry's total lack of environmental consciousness, and so he committed to himself creating a culinary concept that provided for both people and the planet. With dreams of melding his passions for food, music, and nature and inspired by his travels and experiences, Niccolò and close friend Riccardo conceptualized Veggie Wave while on a surf trip in 2017 and have since served thousands of patrons healthy juices while spreading their message of respecting our natural resources.
"I wanted to travel and start living out my dream: the ocean was calling me. Surfing has always been my key to connect with nature, and my time spent in the water has given me a deep respect for our earth."
RICCARDO FERRAGAMO, founder
Having grown up in the hills of Tuscany, Riccardo is quick to share how the most important lessons of his youth were learned while seated at the dinner table. While deeply connected to his home of Florence, Riccardo’s insatiable appetite for adventure and knowledge brought him to the United States where he pursued a degree in Business Administration as a young man. After university, Riccardo secured jobs at major fashion brands and at a leading global consulting firm where he learns to be a part of a more entrepreneurial environment and could better utilize his problem solving and interpersonal skills.
It was while on a surf trip with his childhood friend Niccoló that Riccardo saw the path to build a business that fulfilled his goals and the idea for Veggie Wave was born.
