The Punjab Agri Export Corporation (PAGREXCO) yesterday announced its plans to increase the number of juice bars to 150 units from the present 103, which are operational at various locations in Punjab, Chandigarh, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.
 
The corporation had started a scheme for marketing of fruit juice and fruit-based beverages, by setting up refrigerated juice vending machines, a PAGREXCO spokesman said.
