Ontario based Pulp and Press Juices is proving there’s a healthy market for cold-pressed juice. 

CANADA     Since launching four years ago in London, Ontario, Pulp and Press has grown rapidly from the small start-up founded by John Parlow and Christian Vemb. They launched back in 2013 producing raw, organic, cold-pressed juices from a variety of fruits and vegetables including apple, lemon, beets, fennel, pineapple, grapefruit, cucumber, kale and ginger, in 11 different combinations

Pulp and Press juice is sold by about 500 retailers in Ontario, Quebec and British Colombia, including major chains such as Metro, Loblaw and Farm Boy with retailer Costco now stocking Pulp and Press products in Toronto-area stores where stocks of one-litre bottles sold out soon after hitting the shelves. Sales have now grown to 12,000 to 15,000 bottles a week and to keep up with demand and in order to prolong the shelf life of the products as the distribution network grows, Pulp and Press contracted out its production to a processor in Saint-Hyacinthe, east of Montreal. The plant uses high pressure processing which uses extreme pressure to prolong shelf life without the heat used in pateurisation that can degrade the nutrients in the juice.
