We were founded in 2013 by Richard Smith-Bernal, who launched The Juice Smith with one machine and one mission in mind, to improve health through unprocessed and natural foods. As a professional rugby player, Richard’s passion for cold-pressed juices began with his own journey. After relying on workout supplements for years to support his active lifestyle, his health deteriorated and he was diagnosed with severe gastritis, leading to his discovery of cold-pressed juices and their associated health benefits. He purchased his first cold-pressed juicer in 2012 and started juicing himself from his family kitchen.
Lauren Smith-Bernal, is passionate about the positive impact of mindful eating on your physical and mental health and is the driving force behind new products with health benefits you can trust: “What you eat can have a direct impact on your state of mind. There is a common misconception that healthy food can be boring, but we can change this. Our products are good for you and delicious.” Our product range has expanded to include raw sweet treats, dehydrated snacks, salads and bespoke cakes.
Smith is not just our namesake. Smith embodies our commitment to quality, craftsmanship and community.
We are proud to be a 100% organic business, certified by the Soil Association, setting us apart as best in class when it comes to quality and integrity. Our organic certification guarantees that every ingredient we use is sustainably sourced and grown without harmful pesticides or synthetic chemicals. Each of our cold-pressed juices contains up to 1⁄2 kg of fresh, vitamin-rich produce, providing unparalleled nutritional density and 3 of your 5 a day.
All of our juices and shots are cold-pressed and hand-poured in the UK with minimal processing. Unlike traditional juicing methods that use heat for preservation, we use the High-Pressure Processing (HPP) method to achieve long-lasting juices while preserving our ingredient’s natural flavours and nutrients. This means essential vitamins and minerals remain intact, ensuring our juices are as nutrient-dense and fresh as possible. Everything we produce is free from preservatives, additives, seed oils and refined sugars.
We believe in a collaborative approach to wellness, our customers, our teams, our partners and our planet. To us, wellness means providing natural products and guidance from trained team members, and behaving sustainably and ethically as a business. Our goal is to promote all aspects of wellness, mind and body, working towards a happier and healthier future for us and our planet.
