FruitSmart's Year-Round Juice Production from the Pacific Northwest

FruitSmart operates its juice production by sourcing premium quality fruits and vegetables from the Pacific Northwest. By maintaining long-term relationships with local packing houses and growers, the company ensures a steady supply of fresh produce that enables them to operate their single-strength juice line throughout the year.

The production process involves receiving, washing, scrubbing, and hand-sorting the fruits to remove defects before pressing them into juice. FruitSmart offers both cloudy and clarified juice options, which can be pasteurized or unpasteurized depending on the requirement.

Apples receive particular attention in their production line, being pressed every week to maintain a consistent flavor and acid profile across different varieties. This allows the creation of variety-specific blends, catering to diverse applications such as hard ciders, wines, premium beverages, and natural drinks.

The company's approach emphasizes flavor freshness, a clean label without additives, and a short supply chain, which are key advantages highlighted in their product offerings.
