 Business TypeFranchiseInitial Investment$60,000Total Investment$130,000 to $250,000Required Net Worth$200,000Number of Units254In Business Since1995 OverviewOne great name, two great concepts. Planet Smoothie has built a
reputation of having the best tasting smoothies in the country. Now, by
popular demand, we’ve added food in select locations. Whether you choose a Planet Smoothie or a Planet Smoothie Café depends on your location, lease restrictions, experience, and desire. Either way, being known as “the smoothie man (or woman)” is a great title to have.  Products & Services Since 1995, Planet Smoothie has fallen somewhere between
refreshingly level-headed and sanely-visionary. “Fast fuel” on the go,
for any diet or none at all.Low fat, low carb, low cal. High protein, high energy, high in vitamins and supplements. Your smoothies are great, and all, but sometimes we want to chew? Got any healthy sandwiches back there? We listened. Many of our newest locations are actually Cafes: Breakfast, sandwiches, salads, soft drinks, and, of course, the best tasting smoothies on the planet. These are one-stop shops for your fast food abatement program. More selection and seating, that same great Planet Smoothie feeling. Fresh smoothies, healthy snacks, and, through our new Planet Smoothie Café locations, sandwiches and salads. Just say ‘no’ to fat and grease. Planet Smoothie: we’re changing the way the Planet eats. Training & Support All franchisees must attend and successfully complete the training
program provided by Planet Smoothie. The cost of this initial training
is included in your franchise fee. However, the costs connected with
travel and lodging will be the responsibility of the franchisee. All
owners and operating managers should attend training. In addition to your initial training period, our field marketing managers will work with you in your store for several days prior to opening and several days after your opening. The exact schedule will be worked out with you. Your field marketing manager will assist you thereafter in developing your business. You will receive support in all areas of operations and construction through our Store Development System (SDS) and for marketing from our Guerrilla Marketing Kit. As revisions take place in each manual, you will receive the relevant updates. You will receive our newsletter which contains information, ideas, management information and developments of interest along with periodic visits from our field marketing managers and other members of our company. They will offer you help in setting budgets, creating your annual plan, quality control, operational issues, record keeping, and employee training. We offer complete support in all areas of running your business. Why Planet Smoothie?A Choice of Two Concepts Planet Smoothie: The original. Great products, multiple dayparts, fun atmosphere – Planet Smoothie has been around for 10 years and we’ve got a fan base that is out of this world. Planet Smoothie Cafe: Created by popular demand. Planet Smoothie Café takes fast fuel to another level: Breakfast, sandwiches, salads, and smoothies. Something for every taste, every mood. We’re changing the way the planet eats. Are You a Good Fit for Planet Smoothie? We provide a complete training program which will qualify you to run your store.
The franchise fee is $25,000 for your first store. Including the franchise fee, it costs between $160k and $275k to open a store in a leased space. Primarily we look for 700 to 1,200 square feet in strip shopping centers and malls. Although, because of our flexible footprint, we can locate in non-traditional sites such as airports, convenience stores, food courts, college campuses, and office buildings. During our analysis process we take into account such variables as visibility, ingress and egress, co-tenancy, traffic counts, comparables, demographic studies, and the overall economics of the deal.
