Buy a Clean Juice Franchise

Clean Juice is a USDA-certified organic juice and food bar franchise, founded in 2014 by Landon and Kat Eckles and positioned as the first national franchise built entirely around certified-organic ingredients. Stores serve cold-pressed juices, smoothies, açaí bowls, toasts, wraps, salads, cleanses and shots for dine-in and takeout, with ordering also available through a branded rewards app and third-party delivery partners.

The format is a compact quick-service retail model, with stores typically occupying 600 to 1,000 square feet in retail strips and urban storefronts. Owners run a small hourly team and serve health-conscious local guests, fitness communities and families looking for convenient better-for-you food. The brand was founded on stated core values of respect, gratitude and positivity, with much of its early identity built around community involvement.

In May 2024, Clean Juice was acquired by Brix Holdings, a multi-brand franchisor whose portfolio includes Friendly’s, Red Mango, Smoothie Factory and Orange Leaf. The brand operates franchised locations across more than a dozen states. For resale buyers, the organic certification and recent change of ownership both define where the brand sits today.

Why buy a Clean Juice Franchise?

Clean Juice operates in a health-and-wellness category that has proved resilient as consumers shift toward cleaner, better-for-you eating. Its USDA-certified organic positioning is genuinely uncommon among juice and smoothie franchises, giving an operator a clear point of difference in a market crowded with conventional smoothie concepts.

Buying a Clean Juice franchise gives an owner an established brand name, a defined menu and operating system, a branded mobile rewards app with a large registered guest base, and integrated third-party delivery through UberEats, GrubHub and DoorDash for added revenue. Since the 2024 acquisition by Brix Holdings, the brand sits within a larger franchising group with experience scaling multiple food concepts, which can bring added infrastructure and expansion support.

Clean Juice – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Initial training runs through Clean Juice University, covering daily operations, organic standards, hiring, marketing and finance, with 21 hours of classroom and 42 hours of on-the-job training. Home Office trainers support each launch on site, and a continuous support program provides ongoing operations, accounting and digital-marketing help, backed by an in-house marketing team, a franchisee intranet, POS and the branded rewards app. Resale buyers should confirm with Clean Juice what transfer training and system access carry over to incoming owners.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Clean Juice suits a hands-on, community-minded operator who is comfortable running a small quick-service team and cares about health and wellness. Prior restaurant experience helps but is not essential, as the franchisor provides structured operational training. Day to day, the role centers on guest experience, managing and motivating hourly staff, maintaining organic standards, and driving local and digital marketing to build repeat traffic. Owners who enjoy being visible in their community and building local relationships tend to fit the model best.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Clean Juice has earned broad industry recognition. It ranked on Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 (#260 in 2022, #154 in 2021) and appeared on multiple Franchise Business Review lists, including Top Food Franchise and Top Franchise for Women in 2022. It was also named to Newsweek's America's Favorite Restaurant Chains 2023 and Franchise Times' Fast & Serious smartest-growing franchises in 2023. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reviews and reputation.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US juice and smoothie bar industry generates about $4.5 billion in annual revenue and has grown at a 5.3% compound annual rate over the past five years (IBISWorld), supported by sustained demand for organic, plant-based and clean-label food. Health awareness, convenience and better-for-you eating continue to drive traffic, though sales can be seasonal in colder climates. For resale buyers, local demographics, foot traffic and nearby competition strongly shape an individual store's performance.
