About Glory Juice

Glory Juice is in the business of developing and commercializing organic health food products. Glory Juice carefully crafts its juices with 2-3 lbs. of fresh produce in every bottle, with no added sugars or preservatives. Glory Juice believes that what you put into your body matters, and the Company's commitment to using only organic ingredients sourced from local farms reflects its dedication to quality and sustainability. Glory Juice supports local farmers with the goal of empowering its community and reducing environmentally harmful food miles. Glory Juice's commitment to sustainability goes beyond just using organic ingredients, as the company also focuses on upcycling waste from seed pulp to fruit peels to take steps to combat food miles.

Glory Juice's cold-pressed juicing method is the foundation of its business. Unlike centrifugal juicers that introduce heat and result in oxidation and loss of nutrients, Glory Juice's cold-pressed juicers focus on preserving the beneficial properties of every ounce of juice, allowing for easy assimilation of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients for optimal health.

Glory Juice has been in operation for over 9 years and has three retail locations in Vancouver - Olympic Village, Yaletown, and Coal Harbour. The company is proud of its roots and the passion that drives it to create organic, fresh, and delicious juices, nut and seed mylks, ready-to-blend smoothies, wellness shots, and more. Glory Juice also offers franchising options, business-to-business partnerships with its wholesale partners, co-branding, and white-label capabilities.

Glory Juice's mission is to nourish the body, mind, and environment, to allows its customers to live vibrant, healthy, and sustainable lives.

Transaction Terms

The Shares will be subject to contractual resale restrictions, pursuant to which 10% of the  Shares will be released on the closing date of the Acquisition (the "Closing Date"), and 15% of the Shares will be released every 6 months thereafter.

Additionally, the Company will cause the Glory entities to repay outstanding loans owing to certain shareholders of Glory Juice (the "Loan Holders") in the aggregate amount of approximately $1,800,000, through the issuance of secured promissory notes (the "Promissory Notes") by the Glory Juice entities, in favour of the Loan Holders.
