A specialty juice shop, JuiceMo was opened in Independence Walk, Kurunduwatta (behind Rupavahini Training School) last month.
According to co-founders, of the venture Nilmini and Gihan Dheerasekera (mother and son), they are hoping to open two more JuiceMo outlets in Bambalapitiya and Nugegoda this year.
Founder, Nilmini Dheerasekera said that the idea to launch JuiceMo was created when they were in Australia and she followed several programs and received special training in this regard.
“We wanted to offer authentic fruit juices without any preservatives, coloring and chemicals and meet this objective, we acquire a special technology from Australia.”
She said that for the first time they are also offering a ‘Veggie Kottu’ with a special pan cake which is now gaining in popularity along with their non-alcoholic ‘Blue Margarita’. “In addition 99% of our juices are minus sugar and this is very popular among foreigners who use the jogging track in the morning and evenings.”
Instead on Sugar they use Australian Honey and all the fruits are mostly selected from rural areas where fruits are grown using organic methods.
Dheerasekera said that most of their clients are foreigners and Sri Lankans are slow to enjoy benefits of health drinks and still preferred to use carbonated drinks.
She said that due to its nice spacious lay out people think they are expensive but it’s not true as they have drinks stating as low as Rs. 150.
The JuiceMo open entire week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. could accommodate around 100 guests and they have also now introduced special take away packs as well.
“We are now talking to travel agents to promote JuiceMo among foreigners who visit independence square.”
