Market Competition and Expansion:

Smoothie Restaurants continue to lead the marketplace in providing nutritious healthy meals and smoothies. The Restaurant environment attracts families, students, health-conscious consumers, etc. with the availability of free Wi-Fi. It is located near 2 colleges, several high schools, and a large medical facility. As a result, traffic in the Restaurant is consistent throughout the day.
