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, bespoke cakes and a selection of wellness products from trusted partners, ranging from supplements to bath oils, candles to plant-based skincare.
Smith is not just our namesake. Smith embodies our commitment to quality, craftsmanship and community.
Each of our cold-pressed juice bottles contains up to 1kg of fresh, vitamin-rich produce, providing 4 of your 5 a day. We source all of organic produce from our fruit and veg to our coffee beans and anything used in our plant-based kitchens is free from preservatives, additives and refined sugars. We cater for all dietary requirements and we are passionate about delivering plant-based food which is packed with both nutrition and flavour. In July 2023, we are incredibly proud to have been certified as an organic business from the Soil Association.
Everything we produce is made in-house and from scratch, only using the finest ingredients. We use the cold-pressed juicing process because it is the superior way to juice. Each bottle is made by hand, cold-pressing the fruit and vegetables instead of grinding or blending to help extract every bit of goodness. Our goal is to retain nutrition through raw cooking methods; cold-pressing juices, dehydrating snacks and soaking almonds.
We believe in a collaborative approach to health, our customers, our teams and our planet. To us, health 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 health, mind and body, working towards a happier and healthier future for us and our planet.
