What's This Settlement About?

A proposed settlement has been reached in a case involving Welch Foods Inc. alleging that labeling three 100% juice products with claims that they help support a healthy heart are misleading.

The Settlement provides both monetary and injunctive relief to all Class Members. Class Members who make claims will be entitled to monetary compensation, on a pro rata basis, depending on how many Class Products they purchased during the Class Period.

How Do I Qualify?

The Class includes all persons in the United States who, between March 23, 2016 and October 1, 2021 (the “Class Period”), purchased in the United States, for household use and not for resale or distribution, one of the Class Products. The Class Products are the following:

• Welch's 100% Grape Juice Concord Grape
• Welch's 100% Juice Red Sangria
• Welch's 100% Black Cherry Concord Grape Juice

What Can I Get?

Class Members who timely submit a valid approved claim are entitled to compensation. Each timely, valid Claimant will receive a Settlement Payment of $1 per product, based on the number of Class Products purchased during the Class Period, up to 12 products without proof of purchase (and no limit with proof of purchase).
