Smoothie King Franchise

Smoothie King operates in the restaurant and food service space and franchises its brand to independent owners. The quick-service and casual dining category remains one of the more active corners of franchising, and Smoothie King competes within it with a defined operating model.

Opening a Smoothie King franchise calls for an estimated total investment of $329,850–$683,715. That figure includes an initial franchise fee of $25,000, along with costs such as equipment, buildout, signage, initial inventory, and working capital.

Smoothie King includes a financial performance representation (Item 19) in its current FDD, meaning the franchisor discloses figures on unit-level sales or earnings. Reviewing Item 19 alongside validation calls with existing franchisees is the best way to gauge realistic performance.
