Sixteen years is a long-time to be in business, it has given SMART Drinks the time to learn what works and does not work in the Smoothie & Nutrition and the Food Truck industries. We have been able to combine these two business models into a profitable and fun new business offering.
SMART Drinks and Nutrition has used this time to develop a system that offers customers the great experience they want.
We have had the time to prefect the fruit smoothie, blended coffee and veggie juice recipes that customers crave.
We know that it can be the little things that bring in repeat customers, and we will share those secrets with our franchisees.
SMART Drinks has invested many resources in developing a detailed and comprehensive operations manual. We have included scripts, training procedures, and marketing processes in this document, so franchisees will always have a reference document at their finger tips.
As a franchisee your training will take place while your venue be it a retail location or a mobile unit is being built out. Seasoned SMART Drinks employees will work with you at our corporate headquarters in Houston, virtually and in your area to assist you in building a successful business launch, that will be easy for you to maintain and grow.
The information presented may have changed since first published. We recommend that you always verify fees, investment amounts and offers with the business opportunity directly prior to making a decision to invest.
1. What training and ongoing support do you provide?
You want to know what happens after you pay the initial fee. A strong franchisor provides comprehensive pre-opening training, site-selection help, operational playbooks, and continuous assistance with marketing, technology, and supply chains.
2. What is the total initial investment, and did actual startup costs match the estimates in Item 7 of the FDD?
The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) lists estimated startup costs in Item 7, but real-world expenses can run higher. Asking how closely current owners tracked to these estimates reveals if you need extra working capital or if hidden fees exist.
3. How do royalties and local/national marketing fees impact profitability?
You need to understand ongoing financial obligations-such as monthly royalty percentages and ad fund contributions-and evaluate whether the brand value and support justify cutting into your profit margins.
4. What are the common challenges new franchisees face, and how do you help them overcome them?
Transparent franchisors will openly discuss real hurdles like local competition, tight labor markets, or supply chain bottlenecks, and show you the exact playbook or field support they offer to solve them as well as allowing you to speak with other franchisees.
5. How many franchise locations have closed or left the system in the past few years, and why?
High turnover, store closures, or quiet franchise exits are major red flags. This question measures system stability, territory health, and whether the corporate team addresses struggling owners or lets them fail.
