About Buda Juice
Founded in 2013, Buda Juice has built its brand around “UltraFresh” cold-pressed juices, wellness shots, lemonades, and other citrus-based products. The company emphasizes:
- Freshness– A proprietary cold-chain process ensures juices remain chilled from production to store shelves.
- Health & Wellness– Organic certification for select products, combined with clean, simple ingredients.
- Sustainability– All juices are packaged in glass bottles to reduce plastic waste.
Buda Juice distributes both under its own branded labels and through private-label partnerships, giving it flexibility in reaching different retail segments.
