You Can’t Fake Fresh: Citrus America Marks 15 Years Helping Foodservice and Retailers Deliver Profitable, Sustainable Fresh Juice Programs

January 27 2026, In the News

Citrus America, led by founder and president Brian Framson, is celebrating a decade and a half of empowering the foodservice industry through high-return fresh innovation. Since its founding, the company has remained steadfast in its mission to help operators "Squeeze Every Drop" of potential from their beverage programs by providing world-class equipment and turnkey solutions.

For Framson, this 15-year milestone is a testament to the enduring power of authenticity in a crowded market. “We started with a simple belief: You can’t fake fresh,” Framson shared. “Over the last 15 years, we’ve seen the industry evolve, but the consumer’s desire for real, transparent quality hasn't changed. Our goal is to give hospitality and foodservice leaders the tools to deliver that quality while driving the margins and loyalty they need to thrive.”

This commitment to excellence ensures that every partner—from boutique cafes to national stadium venues—can provide a "signature" experience that sets them apart from the competition.
