Happy Planet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Happy Planet is a private company in Vancouver, Canada, known for making organic juices and smoothies. The company was started in 1994 by Randal Ius and Gregor Robertson. They originally started out with one farm producing carrot juice. At first the company supplied primarily natural food stores and small restaurants and cafes. Now their products can be found Canada-wide as well as in parts of the Pacific Northwest United States. Currently, the company currently ships several thousand of bottles of juice per week.

[edit] Products

The company draws a large percentage of its raw products from local farms and wishs to draw more, but no one has yet successfully cultivated bananas and mangoes in Canada. Happy Planet produces three products lines: juices, cooler (a mix of juice and tea), and smoothies. Most of the company's products are certified organic by the Certified Organic Associations of British Columbia.

[edit] Gregor Robertson candidacy

In 2005, Gregor Robertson left the company to run for the NDP in the riding of Vancouver-Fairview in the May 19 election.
