Why the West Loop?

Choosing the West Loop/ Fulton Market for our Pure Green location was a no-brainer. The West Loop is the most dynamic, progressive, and culturally vibrant neighborhood in Chicago. We see this community as a health-conscious group of individuals, as you can see by all of the boutique gyms and wellness institutions in the neighborhood. We see our product line fitting in seamlessly with this community and anyone who visits.

What are your top challenges in growing your business?

We are first-time business owners! So far, the top challenge has been negotiating the lease.

Why did you join the West Central Association? 

We want to create a community around Pure Green Fulton Market. That is at the core of the brand and owners of this location.

What makes your business unique?

We know that we may be a little biased, but we genuinely believe that Pure Green has a few things that make us unique among other juice/smoothie bars. At Pure Green, improving people’s health isn’t just a side effect of our business, it is what it is based on. We truly believe in the healthy healing powers of nutrient dense juice and smoothies. We also wanted to create a vision larger than just Pure Green stores, we wanted to inspire communities to embrace healthy living. Pure Green Fulton Market is built with the local community in mind. We've found a great building with character that reflects the vibe of the neighborhood and its rich history.

What gets you up in the morning?

Usually, my dog licking my face.

What’s your favorite part of the West Loop?

My favorite part of the West Loop is that it is evolving by the day.

What does the future look like?

We see people paying more attention to their health and seeing food as "medicine".
