Our Story
The Main Squeeze was conceived and established by entrepreneur, cooking expert, and hospitality professional Laronda Johnson in the year 2015. Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, she started her health and fitness journey as a means for losing her excessive weight in high school. With over 300+ Lbs on the weighing scale, she managed to lose 100 lbs through diet control and exercise. Later on, she moved to Atlanta, but her quest to enhance her fitness and physical strength continued with even more zeal and zest.
Transforming her eating habits and looking out for foods and drinks that are healthy and natural, she realized that there was no suitable place to get good smoothies and fresh juices anywhere in Atlanta. She had to travel far and pay high just to get some real fresh fruit drinks and juices for herself. In her efforts to make smoothies to lose weight, she began researching the benefits of juicing and wanted to make her creations available to everyone. Identifying this niche, she moved back to Cleveland and opened up her own store to meet the health and nutritional needs of the people.
