Smoothie King is proud to be a leader in the smoothie industry, and we understand that being a leading brand in our category requires us to focus on what lies on the horizon to stay ahead of the competition. We’re consistently innovating our smoothie franchise opportunities to maintain our momentum, establish our ever-increasing market share, and grow brand awareness, as well as benefit our franchisees.

We’ve experienced substantial growth over the past 10 years and attribute our accomplishments to our ability to deliver an incredible guest experience through our commitment to franchise owner success. With over 1,350 locations worldwide and as one of the fastest-growing franchise brands in the country, we’ve paved a well-conceived path to help our franchisees improve their performance and strengthen their loyal customer bases.

We go well beyond just fruit in a blender; we create masterfully crafted smoothies that are expertly blended for our guests’ specific needs, goals, and ambitions. We deliver specialized smoothies our guests have come to love as part of their active lifestyles, without artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

When you partner with Smoothie King, you’ll immediately gain recognition as a leader in the smoothie industry and access to a great portfolio of effective products, materials, and tools you can use to grow your new business. You’ll provide the fresh smoothies and smoothie bowls our customers enjoy while benefiting from world-class support, comprehensive guidance, robust marketing strategies, refined technology systems, and more, all as part of our powerful brand positioning.

We Keep Evolving As consumer preferences shift to focus more on health and wellness, Smoothie King has evolved our brand to align with this holistic trend. We’ve developed our franchise system to empower owners to break into this growing market with the resources they need to stay ahead of the competition and consumer preferences in the communities they serve.

When we set out to refresh and expand our menus, we focused on the purpose-driven segment of the market, adding our clean, better-for-you smoothies and smoothie bowls that meet each guest’s health and wellness goals by helping to improve gut health and digestion. Adding these smoothies to our menu enables our franchisees to bolster their bottom lines and meet consumer demand, which is essential to driving revenue to each store.

As we continue adding new products and expanding our menus, our premium smoothies have become integral to our guests’ active lifestyles and fitness journeys.
