The brand was founded in 2016 by a father and son team, and has enjoyed strong sales at Asda with 41% year-on-year growth.
One Planet Pizza’s full range includes the ‘Margherita’, ‘Peppernomi’ and ‘Hawaiian’.
Commenting on the listing with Morrisons, co-founder Joe Hill said: “We can’t wait to spice up Morrisons freezers with our outrageously tasty Tex Mex.
“Our mission has always been to make vegan pizzas so good that even meat eaters want a slice. We’re pretty proud that our strong sales, reviews, and brand growth suggest we are doing exactly that.”
