Raja joins me to share how a tiny juice idea became the UAE’s leading wellness brand, now on Emirates First Class. We get real about scaling in the UAE, saying no to shortcuts, and why education beats marketing tricks.
We cover juicing 101: why cold-pressed matters, when removing fibre is powerful, and how to choose your juice wisely. We unpack HPP versus pasteurisation and how to extend shelf life without killing nutrients. We talk about clean labels, no concentrates, no preservatives, and what premium sourcing actually looks like. We dig into the brand-building realities: COVID pivots, safety nets, and not falling in love with the idea over the business. I also taste multiple juices live and break down the genuine health benefits.
Not just a business story but a true masterclass in product integrity, resilience, and smarter wellness.
