Hi all,
I brought Huel back with me from Europe late last year to Sydney. I am now moving back to Europe and have two unopened bags of 1.72kg gluten-free, unflavoured & unsweetened Huel powder (best before June 2020) for sale if you are interested. I have been flavouring it myself with natural stevia & cocoa powder and have found it great, but I just don’t want to have to carry it with me during the move back.
Please let me know if you’re interested!
Cheers,
Phil
Hi Markus,
Yep I still have the two bags. Do you want to send me your number and I’ll text you?
Cheers,
Phil
Hi Guys,
I was in the same boat when I moved back to Australia - couldnt find anything similar!
I then stumbled upon a brand called ‘vybey’ (www.vybey.com.au). They offer a Huel RTD replica which might be useful for some on the thread. Similar macros, but taste is better imo but think this is due to milk concentrate being used as protein source & fruit concentrate for flavour. Although still low in sugar given milk & concentrate additions. It’s certainly keeping me going!
Awaiting a Huel powder appearance Down Under.
I wouldn’t call it a Huel RTD replica, since they are quite different. Yes, they offer a meal replacement in an RTD format, but that’s almost the end of what they share.
For starters, Vybey is milk based, as opposed to Huel. Other ingredients also vary a fair bit, as well as the flavour options.
Good alternative, just not a replica.
The vybey guys have also released a complete meal powder. Their dairy version is obviously very different from Huel, but their plant based one from a nutritional profile perspective looks on par.
I’ve not tasted the new Huel powder but vybey have done a great job masking the pea & brown rice protein. vybey Complete Meal Powder | Plant Based | Chocolate Caramel Flavour – vybey | Premium Meal Replacement Shake
Can definitely back vybey, just ordered my 2nd 1.5kg bag of the plant based. Really tasty and filling! Wish I could have tasted Huel but they seem really similar.
Thanks for the recommendation @JasonSande
I managed to get some vybey as it seems the most similar to Huel in Australia.
Love it!
hi i was just wondering if you guys are still thinking about sending huel to Australia it would be a massive success if sent here
Did they (the Australian government) relax their food import restrictions?
I’m afraid this still isn’t a possibility at the moment, we hope one day we can 
Hi Charlotte. I was wondering if anything on the subject has changed in the past 1 year. I am moving to Aus in September and really wished it was there.
My job prospects are open over there too. I wouldn’t mind getting involved in the marketing and advertisement if there was open positions !
The Australians updated their biosecurity conditions for textured vegetable protein or vegan products this month to allow for personal use (up to 10kg prepackaged items) without a permit, but it’s still super strict - and each delivery has to be inspected at the border which also carries a fee of between $50-80 per 15 minute block of time. Even then, it’s still at the inspectors discretion to allow it in. So if there were any loose powder in the box for example – the whole thing would be in the incinerator. Coupled with the increased air freight charges of late – it’s a bit of a costly gamble you’d have to take even if Huel shipped there.
I have to ask. How do you keep track of that stuff?? 
I live in SEA as well and have family in Australia, who I sometimes ship things to - so (painfully) well aware of the restrictions and costs in this region. Because of the freight and duty increases over the past few years, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to send Huel here – RTD now costs more to ship and process here than it does to buy it for example.
You can keep track of changes with policy via the country’s government department of agriculture sites.
