Bring Organic Fresh Juice Box Cafe to South LA
Our mission is to provide convenient access to fresh organic fruit and vegetables in underserved communities in South Los Angeles.
Project Description
Our belief system that there is not a one size fits all health solution, motivates us.
We aim to be an accessible healthy solution for those who are unsure about where or how to start. It’s Not a Diet. It’s a Lifestyle. We are a lifestyle change for many and a lifestyle choice for others.
We started with a push cart. It helped us test the market, be flexible and understand what areas are lacking access to healthier options. We will continue to operate the cart in areas that do not have access to the cafe location.
Fruits and Vegetables Projected to be a $1.1B industry by 2025; however, underserved communities such as South Los Angeles, (Crenshaw District) the area we plan to serve, are lacking access to fresh organic produce.
We offer products and services including, but not limited to, fresh and organic produce bowls, cold-pressed juices, and wellness shots. We are registered farmers, and a portion of our proceeds go back to the National Black Farmers Association. Our mission is to provide fresh organic fruit and veggies into homes in underserved Los Angeles communities.
We also will host a farmers market each Sunday once we open the location.
We are seeking to raise funds to complete the juice box cafe buildout, mass production equipment, operating costs for up to 6 months and marketing campaigns to provide access to fresh organic produce in South Los Angeles.
We will be hiring locally from the Crenshaw District to provide economic stimulation and growth for the area and the community we serve.
The Fruit Stand LA is a minority woman-owned business with CEO/Founder Chanti Randolph and Partner Savvy Henderson.
Thank you for all your support, every contribution counts! We look forward to serving South Los Angeles!
