Brand overview
Founded in 1996 by Olympic athlete James Villasana, Smoothie Factory + Kitchen was created to provide healthy food options made from the highest quality ingredients. Today, the brand serves both athletes and those pursuing an active lifestyle, offering healthy smoothies, juices, superfood power bowls, grilled paninis, wraps, salads, and seasonal soups. Each location provides the energy and nutrition of fruits and vegetables without added preservatives or sugar. The versatile storefront design allows owners to operate in traditional venues and non-traditional locations like food courts, airports, universities, and kiosks.

Why choose Smoothie Factory + Kitchen
When you join Smoothie Factory, you are in business for yourself, not by yourself. You receive ongoing operational support, quality assurance visits, and professional marketing support. This is a business within a business, as multiple menu categories including smoothies, juices, probiotics, bubble tea, wellness bowls, and food allow for pricing elasticity. Simplicity is at the core of the operation, with no need for expensive kitchen hoods, exhaust systems, fryers, or fire suppression systems, and gourmet-style recipes easily executed by unskilled labor.
