Why Own A Nekter Franchise?

We’re leading the truly healthy juice and smoothie franchise industry, and are on pace for outstanding franchise growth.

• Industry-Disrupting Concept - By basing our restaurants on the successful and in-demand Starbucks model rather than copying a competing juice bar, we have become a lifestyle brand where people not only spend time in our locations but also use our juices to lose weight and kickstart a healthier lifestyle.
• Where Healthy Meets Wealthy - Other smoothie franchises may be more of a household name at this point, but absolutely none of them can touch our top quintile Average Gross Sales of $1,032,632*.
• Real World Franchise Support - Our Corporate Support Team is more than just a bunch of executives- we’re Franchise Owners ourselves! We have opened 44 corporate-owned franchise locations and used this experience to fine-tune our model and ensure that it works.
• Growth Oriented Ownership - Thanks to our strong economics, simple operations, and outstanding support, 90 percent of our Franchise Owners are Semi-Absentee. This flexibility leaves Owners plenty of time to scale their business and build an empire. Currently, our Franchise Owner in Southern California owns 12 Nekter Juice Bars…and continues to grow!
• Award Winning Franchise - We are proud recipients of the “Best Buy in Franchising” award from Franchise Times, as well as “Hot Concept” and “Next 20 Brands to Watch” from Nation’s Restaurant News. Additionally, we have ranked in INC’s 5000 “Fastest Growing Companies”, Fast Casual Magazine’s “Top 100 Movers and Shakers”, and Entrepreneur Magazine’s “Franchise 500.” Not bad for a company that’s celebrating its 10-year anniversary!
• Easier to Operate - Our model eliminates the need for fryers, vent hoods, or any other complicated equipment you’ll find in other Fast-Casual concepts. Also, since our local produce purveyors deliver 3 times a week, there’s no need for ample storage space. We keep it simple…in more ways than one!

The Juice Franchise Industry

The growing interest in health-based diets such as Paleo, Keto, and veganism is more than just a trend: it’s an emerging consciousness that transcends generations. Millennials, Boomers, Gen-Xers, and Zoomers alike agree that eating healthy leads to feeling great- and consumer research groups have seen a steady increase in demand for healthier eating options on the go. Thanks to the growing trend toward better living through healthy eating, consumer demand for high-quality healthy meals on-the-go continues to rise.
