Matt McLean is the fourth-generation Floridian and the real-life “Uncle Matt” who founded Uncle Matt’s Organic in June 1999, motivated by a lifelong passion for healthy living and his family’s century‑long tradition of citrus farming.
Driven by a philosophy of enriching soil health and eliminating synthetic pesticides or flavor packets, his vision grew the brand into the top-selling organic orange and grapefruit juice in the U.S., available in over 15,000 stores nationwide. Through family-led innovation and a deep commitment to sustainable farming, using natural pest controls like tamarixia wasps and leading research on citrus greening, McLean has built Uncle Matt’s into a pioneering organic juice company with unwavering roots and purpose.
