The smoothie will offer a cold, refreshing drink to give the people a boost before returning home to begin with the day-to-day family or friends issues whether needing to go to a back-to-school night for their kids, picking up children or participating in sports activities, or working a second job to make ends meet.
Jamba Juice was founded in April 1990 by Kirk Perron, and incorporated in 1991 as Juice Club, Inc. in San Francisco, California. Jamba Juice is known as one of the leaders in the quick-serve fruit and vegetable juice markets nationwide. In 1993, the company opened and started along with two other California stores; one in Palo Alto, California and one in Irvine, California. In 1995 Juice Club Inc. of San Francisco changed its store name to Jamba Juice. In August of 1997, Jamba Juice entered into an operating agreement with Whole Foods Market to sell only "natural" products inside some of the Whole Foods’ locations, including Jamba 's smoothies ' ingredients. In March of 1999, Jamba Juice acquired all nation-wide Zuka Juice, Inc. stores. Since then Jamba Juice has expanded to become one of the nation 's best known smoothie chains, emphasizing the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
Jamba Juice uses real fruit and 100% fruit juices (from all fruit concentrate). All smoothies, except for its "All Fruit Smoothies," contain another ingredient, as per the recipe: sherbet, frozen yogurt, sorbet, plain yogurt, lower-calorie dairy base, or soymilk.
Jamba Juice introduced "Enlightened Smoothies" in 2004 with less sugar and fewer calories and carbohydrates. They have since been renamed "Jamba Light." The lower-calorie dairy base is made with Splenda, non-fat milk and whey protein.

    As noted throughout this analysis, Jamba Juice has a number of organizational issues. Primarily, Jamba Juice mismanaged their rapid growth, which reduced their margins, increased their operating expenses, and stalled their cash inflows. Failure to instill any organizational culture of financial discipline allowed these problems to permeate throughout the company. The seasonal demand of smoothies was another issue, as it created downturns in revenue at certain times of the year. A lack of thoughtful marketing and advertising strategies, especially as Jamba Juice expanded across the nation, failed to take advantage of their strong brand and create more awareness and interest.…

    Even before juicers were invented fruits were mashed. Text from the Dead Sea Scrolls, "A pounded mash of pomegranate and fig" resulting in "profound strength and subtle form,” indicates that juicing has been around since ancient times. The first living juicer was invented in the 1930’s by Dr. Norman Walker. He called this juicer the Norwalk Juice and it is still on the market to this day. In 1954 the first masticating juicer was invented, The Champion, which can juice almost every type of vegetable including leafy ones.
