Great quality foods for cooking vegan - Edit
Welcomed by a warm environment with so many products. There they basically have everything from food to makeup. A lot is organic and vegan. Literally like the only nutritional yeast in KL.
Read morePros: So much to choose from, Very friendly staff , Mostly vegan
Cons: Definitely expensive! which is why I gave 4 stars, Location difficult to find. Have to walk upstair, Hours are inconsistent. Just call before.

Mostly vegan bulk food and zero waste store - Edit
Wonderful zero waste shop that offers a large range of bulk goods: grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, pasta, spices etc. Noteworthy bulk product: nutritional yeast!
Read moreMost cosmetic and laundry products are vegan, some items contains beeswax (just ask/check the ingredients list). Products such as shampoo and laundry detergent can also be bought in bulk (reusable containers are available but most folks bring their own).
Other items include: sanitary products (washable pads and menstrual cups); toothbrushes; mugs; bamboo, metal and glass straws; a range of locally crafted items (shopping bags etc.); locally grown kale (from Pluckedveg.com) which is delivered in bundles weekly but you can call ahead to reserve or preorder from the supplier to collect at the Hive; other fresh items sometimes include locally made sourdough bread, and nitro cold brewed coffee which can be enjoyed as you shop (or bring/buy as reusable cup and take it away).
Regular zero waste themed workshops frequently take place here - details can be found on the Hive Bulk Foods Facebook page.
Pros: Bulk nutritional yeast!, Great selection of bulk items , Lovely, helpful staff
Cons: Not all products are vegan

INCREDIBLE - Edit
This is my kinda shop. I love everything about this place. Lots of goodies like bulk food and toiletries which are packed either in glass or tins. The shops is spacious and the guys who work there are lovely and very helpful if you have any questions. If I lived in KL this would be my local :) and the area is really cool too

An idea that benefits us all - Edit
The Hive background seems to be something that is truly missing in food shops (and mentalities...) around the world: as little waste as possible, aiming for zero.
Read moreYou should bring your own jars/bags/whatever you use to stow food (they do have some paper bags available if you forget) to keep what you buy - there is a lot of seeds, nuts, even salt, all sold by weight (bulk) which is a lot more economic.
Another part of the shop focuses on supporting projects that have a social background, selling their products at the Hive (felt vases from Burma, Jams, shea butter,...).
It is truly a fantastic project that deserves such high praise.
Congratulations!
