Greenhouse Juice Co. aspires to manufacture juice by produce type to increase efficiencies in the plant._x000D_
Moreover, doing so would also reduce the spoilage of the organic produce. The Mississauga, Ontario based_x000D_
company aims to test a unique technology to inactivate one of the active compounds responsible for the short_x000D_
shelf life of the juice. This technology will be quintessential in making Greenhouse Juice's raw products more_x000D_
