Where We Are Headed
The Urban Juicer offers a growing proprietary line of packaged goods, available to customers through in store and online. With the recent addition of adding HPP low-temp / high pressure treatment of the cold pressed juices, the extended shelf life allows retailers anywhere to add our products to their shelves, through multiple distribution partners..
Vertical Integration
High Pressure Pasteurization
Our dedication to freshly prepared products is key to our success, but can be a hurdle for other juice brands that don’t utilize HPP to extend the shelf life. What is HPP? High Pressure Pasteurization is a non-thermal preservation method that kills harmful microorganisms, but preserves the taste, texture, appearance, and nutritional value.
Our franchisees have the ability to offer the fresh on site Cold Press juices as well as our HPP Juices. This strategic vertical integration helps the Urban Juicer Brand survive temporary shortages and supply line outages that would inhibit other brand from being able to sell their product.
What Our Customers Think
“Over the past 6 months I’ve been ordering from The Urban Juicer and I have yet to have a bad meal! The sweet and savory flatbread is to die for! It’s a unique combination. The veggie wrap is also a win! As for smoothies, definitely get the Raspberry Buzz!” – Dessert without the guilt.
