Welcome to Froots
Smoothies
The Healthy Alternative to Traditional Fast Food Fare
The difference between Froots and other smoothie concepts
is that Froots is
actually a quick service restaurant. We are not just a juice bar or
a smoothie shop, we are a healthy food destination. Invariably,
when we open a Froots
in a new market, customers first visit our locations to
“check out the new smoothie shop in town”.
But when they get inside and see
wraps with unique flavor profiles like Wasabi Chicken and Kingston
Jerk or gourmet salads like The Beef and Blue and Chinese Chicken,
they quickly come to think of Froots as a healthy
alternative to traditional fast food fare.
Providing our customers with a full
menu of healthy offerings is what defines and differentiates the
Froots Smoothies
brand.
Froots is among the fastest
growing, quick service restaurant chains in the United States and
Canada. We are a healthy alternative concept and designed to meet
the demands for today’s working consumer looking for a
healthy alternative to traditional fast food.
Froots has been recognized in the
Entrepreneur magazine as one of the top 500 Franchises in 2008 and
in the Franchise Times as the fastest growing young Franchises in
the top fast 55.
For the past six years, Froots restaurants have been known
for our all-natural smoothies, made with all natural fruits and
fruit Juices, with no sugars or additives, contrary to most other
quick service restaurants. Froots has also been delivering an
excellent array of freshly made salads and grilled
wraps.
Froots offers you a complete
support team. We work with each of our franchisees personally
throughout the start-up process. This ensures that you are provided
with everything necessary to properly launch your business,
everything from site selection to marketing support.
