In early September, Glory Juice Co. opened its latest venture, Glory Market, a 2200 square foot street front location at 14985 Marine Dr. in the heart of British Columbia’s White Rock community. The Glory Market concept marks a new chapter for the company, with the recent acquisition of Glory Juice Co. by Pangea Natural Foods Inc., a plant-based food manufacturing company and a distribution network spanning across North America. Glory Market White Rock marks the first of many locations to come, as the company plans to expand its reach to new communities. Glory Juice Co. was founded over nine years ago serving its 100 percent organic, cold-pressed juices, ready-to-blend smoothies, nut and seed mylks, wellness shots, and plant-based foods that are free from added sugars and preservatives. “Our mission has always been to provide healthy products that conveniently nourish the body and mind,” explained Glory Juice Co. CEO Pratap Sandhu. “With Glory Market, we are taking another step towards fulfilling that mission.” The new venture and partnership signify the company’s growth and diversification into a broader market that will accommodate a wider selection of grab-and-go foods beyond vegan items, including, but not limited to carnivorous, pescatarian, and vegetarian options. Glory Market’s mission is to promote dietary inclusivity by catering to various food preferences and needs, while continuing to offer signature vegan menu items. This new range of nutrient-dense products will include an array of grab-and-go options, from salads, and energizing rice bowls, to high-protein meals, and nutritious snacks. Each item is thoughtfully prepared and packaged to ensure the highest quality and freshness, all while emphasizing the importance of nutrition. In addition to three other locations in Vancouver’s Coal Harbour, Olympic Village, and Yaletown neighbourhoods, Glory Juice has established a network of retail partners across the Lower Mainland region, offering a variety of its 100 percent organic, cold-pressed juices.
