Live Fresh Juicery

Live Fresh Cold Pressed Juice + Smoothie Bar is a Black- and woman-owned business on a mission to make real wellness accessible through handcrafted, 100% natural juices, smoothies, açaí bowls, and more — all made fresh daily without preservatives, purees, or shortcuts. Founded in 2019 by Catey and Brett Gilliam, Live Fresh serves Pittsburgh communities. With a vibrant, vegan-friendly, and gluten-free menu, the brand caters to busy professionals, students, parents, and wellness seekers looking for nutrient-dense, feel-good food that supports active lifestyles and long-term health goals. Live Fresh stands apart from national chains by prioritizing ingredient integrity, food transparency, and local connection — offering cold-pressed juices, fruit-forward smoothies, housemade nut butters, and customizable juice cleanses. Through hyperlocal partnerships, intentional hiring, wellness education, and a focus on underserved neighborhoods, Live Fresh is more than a juicery — it's a community-driven movement that brings joy, nourishment, and visibility to those it serves.
