Our Story & Founder Background

Hi, I’m Justinas Čekanauskas, the founder of Lumos VAS. With over two decades of experience in the hospitality industry and years spent as a vegan chef, my journey has been deeply rooted in ethical living and sustainable practices. I’ve witnessed firsthand how passionate vegan entrepreneurs are—and I also saw the challenges they face while juggling day-to-day operations. This inspired me to create Lumos VAS, a service dedicated to helping vegan brands focus on growth while we handle essential administrative tasks. My background has taught me that excellence in hospitality and a commitment to compassion can transform the way businesses operate, and I’m proud to bring that philosophy into the digital realm.
