The Story of Juice It Up!
How Juice It Up! Began
Juice It Up! first opened its doors in 1995 in Brea, California. For many years, from 2001 to 2018, a person named Frank Easterbrook was the main owner and leader of the company. He helped it grow and become well-known.
New Owners and New Ideas
In 2018, Chris Britt and Ed St. Geme bought Juice It Up!. They also own another company called Mountain Mike’s Pizza. Chris and Ed met when they were in college at Stanford University. After buying both companies, they moved the main offices for Juice It Up! and Mountain Mike’s Pizza to Newport Beach.
Growing with Healthy Trends
Juice It Up! first started by selling juices and smoothies. Over time, they noticed that more and more people were interested in healthy eating and juicing. To keep up with this trend, the company started offering more raw juices.
In August 2011, Juice It Up! began to update its stores. They added special "Raw Juice Bars" to many locations. The very first Raw Juice Bar opened in January 2012. These new bars allowed the company to make even more healthy and helpful drinks beyond just smoothies. Juice It Up! is now known for having the most Raw Juice Bars in Orange County, California.
In 2017, Juice It Up! also launched a new line of products: cold-pressed bottled juices and shots. These drinks come in six different juice flavors and three types of shots, all made with natural ingredients.
