Information on a Smoothie Factory Franchise

The time is now for you to capture an on-going trend of consumers today. Everyday life is busy and there is a lot going on. It’s no secret that consumers are watching what they consume more than ever before and want something that is fresh, nutritious, tastes great, is satisfying, a good value, and quick and easy. A Smoothie Factory franchise has all this and more. Here are a few “fun facts” about the industry. Over 2 billion smoothies and fresh pressed juices are served in restaurants every year. This accounts for over 10 billion in revenues every year and it continues to grow. Because of this fast paced growth and high margins more and more chains are beginning to add fresh made smoothies and cold pressed juices to the menu. Smoothies are consumed all day long and can be enjoyed on the go. James Villasana, an Olympic Athlete, founded smoothie Factory in 1996. He was looking for the perfect combination of the best products and highest quality ingredients to compliment his intense workout regimen. Smoothie Factory is made from real fruit, no syrups, no concentrates, no purees, (can’t say that about the competition) and every smoothie is made to order. You can get supplements, proteins, and other vitamins and nutrients added to enhance the benefits of your customized smoothie. Smoothie Factory also offers a full line of Nutritional supplements, both private label and branded, and snack items. Smoothie Factory also supports a fresh, made to order, cold pressed vegetable and fruit juice program for immediate consumption or carry out. As you can see there are many revenue streams to profitability with Smoothie Factory. As with any franchise concept the initial and ongoing support from corporate is going to be the key to your success. Initially Smoothie Factory will provide you with assistance on real estate site selection, store design, FF&E procurement, and construction management. As your opening date draws closer, they offer weeks of intensive training to teach you everything from store operations and marketing, to business management and HR. Once your location is open, they will continue to support you with a complete advertising program, buying power through their relationships with major US vendors, and ongoing product development to keep your menu fresh and interesting. They provide ongoing operational support, along with quality assurance visits to help prevent any major problems from creeping into the day-to-day operation of your smoothie franchise. Currently Smoothie Factory has opportunities for both single-unit and multi-unit development nationwide. For single-unit ownership, you will need $100k in liquid capital to invest, and no previous restaurant experience is required. The system is turnkey and we will provide to you everything you need to know. What we need is passion. Passion for success, passion for the business.
