Blenlly (Blen-gee) Mena

Blenlly (Blen-Gee) Mena
Founder/CEO

Blenlly Mena is the proud Bronxite behind Next Stop Vegan, the Bronx’s first vegan meal-prep service company. After graduating from Baruch College with a degree in Business Administration and a concentration in Human Resources Management, Blenlly landed her first employment at formerly known 5-star hotel, The New York Palace where she began to explore the world through traveling.

She discovered a profound passion towards cultures and food, which led her to move across the country to Los Angeles and then to South Korea where she honed her craft as a self-taught chef and budding entrepreneur while receiving a Plant-Based Nutrition certificate through the eCornell program.

When she found her way back home, Blenlly started Next Stop Vegan from the small kitchen at her mother’s apartment. She then moved the business to her sister’s home, and when faced with a lack of storage and an incredible increase in customers, she then decided to find an establishment with her sister.

On the corner of Archer Ave in the Parkchester area of the Bronx, you can find the home for Next Stop Vegan where together with her family they create delicious and nutritious vegan meals inspired by their Latino roots and fueled by Blenlly’s love for the earth, animals and the community. She is currently working to bring awareness and education on health and wealth for our community. Stay tune for more.
