In 1995, GT’s Living Foods revolutionized how people perceived living, fermented foods when we brought the first-ever bottled kombucha to U.S. shelves. Fast forward to today, and the living foods and gut health conversation we began has transformed into a global movement.
We’re proud to remain an independent, family owned and operated company that has never wavered in our belief that nutritious foods have the power to change the world. Over the past thirty years we have created living foods that are authentically and expertly fueled by plants, raw fermentation, naturally occurring probiotics, and ancient wisdom, including our beloved SYNERGY® Raw Kombucha, energizing ALIVE Ancient Mushroom Elixir, nondairy COCOYO Living Coconut Yogurt, refreshing AGUA De KEFIR Cultured Hydration and our latest innovation, AURA Collagen Tea.
If you believe in the power of living foods, love a good kombucha and want to join our movement to help people live healthier, happier lives, please explore our career opportunities at gtslivingfoods.com.
The Lifeway Foods story began in 1986 with kefir, a dairy-based fermented drink loaded with protein, probiotics, and a deep connection to many cultures, especially those from the Caucasus region. That year, Michael Smolyansky, a refugee from the former USSR, began manufacturing kefir in his basement to bring the taste of his homeland to the U.S. After Michael passed away in 2002, his daughter Julie Smolyansky assumed the role of President and CEO. Today, Lifeway is the country’s leading manufacturer of kefir, with many flavors and varieties that include lowfat, whole milk and organic versions, as well as ProBugs kefir for kids and Farmer Cheese.
