What this means

Our record lists Naked Juice as a brand of Tropicana Brands Group, which sits under PAI Partners. Ownership is a separate question from how a product is made: a brand can hold its own certifications while its parent company operates under different policies.

We hold no active third-party certification for Naked Juice, so the statuses above rest on the sources listed below rather than on a certifier's audit.

We have not yet verified an animal-testing position for Tropicana Brands Group, so we make no claim either way. We publish sourced facts and dates so you can judge them yourself; see how we verify.

    Supports: PepsiCo (minority 39% shareholder) has pledged not to conduct or fund animal testing on food and beverage products except when legally required. The company has a Global Policy on Animal Welfare and pledged to PETA to end all animal testing. However, PAI Partners' specific animal testing policy is not publicly documented.
