Learn from industry experts, share your knowledge
The most difficult part about starting or growing a juice bar or juice company is getting access to experienced professionals and all of the specialized knowledge they possess. I’ve traveled all over the world visiting juice business owners, and a frequent request is that Goodnature put together an event where passionate juicing experts can get together and share information. We’re finally doing it.
We’re assembling an inspiring lineup of speakers, panelists and guests to kick off the first JuiceCon this November 10 & 11 in Venice Beach, California— the Juice Mecca. The speakers and panel discussion will take place in the Rose Room (limited to 200 guests), and we are renting a space across the street at Air Venice where we will offer hands-on juicing training on Goodnature equipment, group discussions, and other breakout sessions with juicing experts. Each breakout session will be limited to 20-30 guests.
Ticket prices will be decided soon as we are still putting together our budget. Pre-register today to get early access.

About The Author

President and CMO - Goodnature
Host - Cold Pressed Truth and Goodnature Radio
Creator - JuiceCon
I’ve been around juicing all my life. My Dad built his first hydraulic juice press in 1976 and founded the company Goodnature Products, Inc. I have incredible memories of having “cider parties” when we would invite all the people in our rural neighborhood over to make apple juice. To this day, when I taste apple juice made on a Goodnature press, a rush of nostalgia runs through my body.
I pride myself on guiding our clients into the world of cold-pressed juice and showing them how much fun this industry can be. I love talking business, technology, and marketing. My missions is to carry on my Dad's goal - one day make Goodnature a house-hold name.

Hi Charlie, any chance you guys will put up a paying livestream or videos of the conference for all those who can't attend the conference in person? If so please let me know. Cheers, JP
We are trying to make that happen but aren't sure we can do it this year. We will send out an email about it before hand if we are able to do it. Thanks!
Do you still have seats for the limited seating event of 200? Regards, Baha

Hi, will the conference include sessions, demos and equipment related to citrus juicing?
There may be some discussion around citrus-only equipment and juice, but it will not be a focus. The focus will be on cold-pressed juice that includes varieties of different fruits and vegetables.
Hello. I am interested to attend the event but will require a visa. Can the conference issue me an invitation letter for the event so I can submit with my travel documents? If not then any possibility of remote presence to the event?
Unfortunately we don't have the resources to help with Visas. We won't be live streaming the event this year.
really good idea. unfortunately i won't be able to attend this time but hope to do so for the next time. eddie pfeiffer
I have had a Juice Bar Juice4life for 6 years and the secret to juices is that you can drink your vegetables. But the problem is that in juice bars today still, there is not a variety of juices that includes celery, zucchini, parsley, cucumber, Brussel sprouts, rhubarb, added herbs, spinach, and many other varieties of vegetables. I have actually discovered how to turn these vegetables into healthy delicious juices and I challenge anyone to taste them and see if they disagree! Chris D'Souza
I admit I've never had rhubarb juice. Sounds interesting!
Sounds interesting. Can you send me a sample?
Very interesting. Appreciate your findings and look forward to see more information or a training from you. Really great.
Send recipe and I would love to give it a try and provide feedback. We are opening our first juice bar in October in East Idaho. Thanks
Can the conference be on line? I am interesting but I am in Mexico.
We won't have remote capabilities for the first event, but maybe in the future.
Info on ticket price
We are still figuring out the costs and budget, and will set the ticket price based on that. So we will know soon.
Please keep me posted! Hugs from San Juan, Pr.
