The Cadboro Bay Jusu Bar recently celebrated its sixth anniversary of operations. “The store has a consistent and loyal local customer base, and has had the same manager since the store opened, who is known and loved by the customers,” says Joelle Fiorito, Head of Operations for Better Plant.

The initial order was for 1,000 bottles, which will provide the Better Plant team with key customer feedback in support of the direct to consumer launch of the new Jusu juices.

The following eight 355mL cold-pressed Jusu juices are now available at the Cadboro Bay Jusu Bar location:

  • Hallelujah (Spinach, Cucumber, Celery, Apple, Ginger and Lemon)

  • I can C clearly now (Turmeric, Apple, Pear, Carrot, Lemon and Ginger)

  • Beet it! (Beet orange carrot ginger)

  • My heart will go on (Kale, Spinach, Apple, Cucumber, Celery, Lemon and Ginger)

  • Smoke on the Water (Pure lemon, Activated Charcoal and Agave)

  • Sweet Alkaline (Blueberry, Cranberry, Strawberry, Apple and Apple Cider Vinegar)

  • I Will Survive (Pure Lemon, Honey and Ginger)

  • Here Comes the Sun (Orange, Ruby Grapefruit, Lemon, Lime and Cayenne)

Better Plant plans to market the new juices online through Google ads and a targeted social media campaign, which will include video advertisements intended to educate consumers on a plant-based lifestyle.

The global cold-pressed juices market is expected to post a compound annual growth rate of close to 8% during the period 2019-2023, according to the latest market research report by Technavio. According to the report’s segmentation analysis, the North America region led the market in 2018, followed by Europe, APAC, South America, and MEA respectively. The market in North America is driven by the high demand for healthy beverages that contain no added sugar and artificial preservatives in the region.

Better Plant acquired Jusu assets on October 9th. More details on the acquisition are available in the press release Better Plant Completes Acquisition of Jusu, dated October 14th.
