Clean Juice, a USDA-certified organic juice bar and quick service restaurant franchise, has squeezed its way into 31 states, with one of its newest shops slated for Pensacola.
Pensacola made the cut among 13 other locations across the U.S. that were added to the expansion list for the business’ first quarter of 2022.
The brand started with a single storefront back in Huntersville, North Carolina, led by owners Landon and Kat Eckles in 2015. The two built their business off of their biblical belief to fuel a healthy body and strong spirit, according to the Clean Juice website.

Since then, they have risen to become one of the fastest growing franchises in the top 500 franchise list by Entrepreneur Magazine in 2021 world, claiming the 154th spot.
The brand has received attention from Tim Tebow, a first-round NFL draft pick and two-time national champion, who serves as the Clean Juice national ambassador.
“The biggest thing about Clean Juice over everything else is that you can trust the product and brand. There aren’t a lot of products that are transparent about what is in your food,” Tebow said in a statement to Clean Juice.
A standardized menu is offered at each of the Clean Juice locations, offering a variety of health food-related products, such as organic cold-pressed juices, smoothies, acai bowls, salads, sandwiches and wraps.
Some of the more unique items on the menu include a cold-brew acai bowl, hummus toast or an orange creamsicle protein smoothie.
The online menu also lists select items as a “Tebow’s Fave” like the protein bowl, made with organic mixed greens, organic diced chicken, organic hard-boiled egg, organic avocado, organic feta, organic hemp seeds and organic walnuts.
The shop also offers a variety of juice cleanse packages to reset and detox your body, according to the website. The cleanse is intended to flood your body with more vitamins and minerals than would typically be received in a regular diet.
There is a unique process of creating the juice that helps them stand out from competitors. The Clean Juice process crushes and gently presses the ingredients to ensure the produce does not lose its nutritional integrity, according to Clean Juice.
The business also partnered with Tebow in launching the Quarters 4 Kids initiative, which is aimed to help underprivileged children.
Clean Juice then partners with the local communities surrounding each of their shops to create impactful projects in the area to help children in need, according to Clean Juice. Examples of completed projects include building a new community playground, creating addiction recovery programs, scheduling healthy meal distributions and providing school literacy coaching. A more extensive list can of projects and descriptions be found on the company website.
Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Clean Juice Landon Eckles said the latest round of opening franchise will bring more opportunities in new communities.
“We are both thrilled and blessed to bring in what we believe to be the very best franchise partners into our family. New people bring new energy and new opportunities to win guests for life, and that’s a big part of our growth over the years. We feel privileged to support our franchise partners and serve with truly clean, healthy and unprocessed fast food,” Eckles wrote in a press release.
