OIJC in NYC!
Orchid Island Juice Company, brought plenty of liquid gold from the Florida Sunshine Tree to Manhattan for the 2009 Fancy Food Show. The trade industry expo featured hundreds of exhibitors from around the globe introducing their products to restauranteurs, grocers and other food distributors. Many of your favorite foods began their journey into your kitchen at the Fancy Food Show. Here, Marygrace Sexton, CEO, is pictured with her sales team (L to R) Front Row: Jeremy Montgomery, Bil Martinelli, Lance Conley. Back Row: Tim Gara, John Martinelli, Michael D’Amato.
Orchid Island Juice Company put its best face forward by including the summer interns in the food show. The marketing interns worked long hours on their feet pouring hundreds of gallons of juice to the 15,000 attendees over three days.

Marketing Director, Lisa Rymer, beams with pride at her marketing interns Natalie Sexton and Alexandra Posada. Many of the decisions about this year’s booth design were made by these two interns… and those decisions added up to one resounding success!
The male interns were equally important in this year’s efforts. Jenson Martinelli (R) assisted in building this year’s booth. Both he and Mike Simpson (L) kept the supply of juice flowing for patrons eager to savor the incomprable flavor of Fresh Squeezed, Florida-grown citrus juice.
This year’s booth featured frozen slushy machines filled with Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice and All Natural Pink Lemonade. Fans of these DEEEEE-licious concoctions couldn’t believe juice could be so good with nothing artificial added to enhance the taste. Kids could be snacking on Frozen OJ Slushies from OIJC and get all the nutrition they need from fruit. Hopefully, the idea will catch on.

Thank you to all of the people whose effort contributed to bringing OIJC Orange Juice to the Big Apple. We all loved the city, the sights, the sounds, the food… and most of all: the people! Can’t wait to do it again next year! To see even more of Orchid Island Juice Company in NYC, target="_blank">check out this video.
