Smoothie King

Fresh Forward into Global Markets

As the American originator of the Smoothie, and with ambitious plans for global expansion, Smoothie King wanted to update its brand identity and store environments to express the importance of healthy living.

International customer research was conducted, which led to a new brand expression and fresh start for the brand. An emphasis on health, cleanliness, and fresh food was elevated in every aspect of the store environment and new product line.
