"The demand for cold-pressed juices is growing thanks to the associated health benefits compared to other juicing methods. When juice is processed using heat, many of the nutrients are destroyed. No heat is introduced during the processing of our juices," said Ashleen Montgomery, Director of Research and Development for Better Plant. "To maintain the quality and safety, our juices are treated using high pressure, eliminating the need to use preservatives or traditional pasteurization methods. We consulted with a registered holistic nutritionist on the quality of our juices and will continue to keep health and nutrition top of mind in the development of our future beverages."

On February 8, 2021 Better Plant took over operation and ownership of the Jusu Bar business. This involved taking over the operation of one Jusu Bar retail sit down location in Cadboro Bay, Victoria, as well as juice manufacturing and sales through retail and jusubar.com, which offers delivery services of refrigerated cold-pressed juices.

The Victoria Jusu Bar is located at Cadboro Bay at 2560B Sinclair Road, 15 minutes from downtown Victoria, in British Columbia. In addition to the full line of cold-press juices, other healthy food and beverage options are available at this location. The Victoria location fulfills pick-up juice orders every Tuesday and Thursday. Better Plant's Calgary delivery-only location offers daily direct-to-consumer deliveries of juices.

To promote sales at all locations, Better Plant will be running a series of posts on all Jusu Bar Instagram pages, and running a social media campaign on its central Jusu Juice Facebook page. The launches will also be promoted via radio and TV contests, giveaways and influencer marketing.

According to a research report by Technavio, the cold-pressed juices market is expected to grow by USD 237.77 million during 2020-2024, at a CAGR of about 6% during 2020-2024. According to Euromonitor International, by 2025, eCommerce will expand by an additional $1.4 trillion and account for half the growth in the global retail sector.
