A suppliers case study

Vida Verde
Find juicy new markets
Vida Verde specialises in freshly produced and made to order Brazilian and Amazonian fruit juices and smoothies: Inspired while on a trip to Brazil the companies’ founder, Julie Dias, brought back a smoothie recipe and, deciding to blend Brazil with London, secured funding from the London Development Agency and the East London Small Business Centre in order to pursue her vision. Vida Verde was a finalist at the British Smoothies Awards 2008, the smallest company competing.

Julie joined East London Business Place to widen the distribution of her products and reach new corporate markets through the promotional assistance that ELBP offers. Vida Verde was featured as a case study
in the Wharf and Eastend Life newspapers, as well as receiving free publicity in the ELBP Supplier Showcase and newsletter, as a result of which she has received several new leads and opportunities.
“ELBP have provided me with ongoing support since they were established. I recently featured in their Newsletter and shortly afterwards was approached with a possible contract to supply local schools in Hackney with my healthy juices. It feels like this is a dream come true. Through exposure and their fantastic networking events ELBP are providing me with opportunities that until now have been out of my reach.”
