GT Dave
GT Dave, an American entrepreneur, is widely recognized for popularizing kombucha in the United States through his company, GT’s Living Foods. Founded in 1995, his brand has become synonymous with kombucha, leading the market with a wide range of flavors and maintaining a commitment to organic, raw, and vegan principles.
GT Dave’s journey into the kombucha industry began in his teenage years, inspired by his mother’s home brewing and her recovery from breast cancer, which she attributed to her kombucha consumption. This personal experience drove Dave to start his own kombucha brewing operation from his parents’ home. His initial product, GT’s Kombucha, was one of the first commercially available kombucha beverages in the U.S., setting a standard for quality and taste in the industry.
