Jamba juice franchiseA job with a Jamba juice franchise does not take a degree in culinary arts or rocket science.  However, one must usually take a local food handler course with the city or town that the juice franchise is located in.  This course consists of basic information about washing one’s hands before handling the food, covering one’s mouth when coughing and then washing one’s hands after coughing, washing one’s hands after using the bathroom, the use of hairnets and the reasons why and general cleanliness and why it is so important to customers health in the restaurant business.

A person who wants to work at a juice franchise or smoothie franchise should enjoy working with food in addition to working with the public.  They must have a calm demeanor and not be argumentative because in most jobs, the customer is always right.

A juice bar consultant or owner of the franchise will be able to show a new employee how to work the mixers or blenders in addition to the proper way to peel and cut the fresh fruits and vegetables. If the smoothie or juice franchise uses them, they could also show how much wheat germ or wheatgrass to add to the smoothies.

Owning your own Jamba juice franchise could mean large profits depending on where the smoothie or juice franchise is located.  Having a juice or smoothie franchise located near the beach and then also selling suntan lotion is a great entrepreneurial idea because it combines more than one thing people need or want while they are near the beach.  People who go to the beach usually take care of their bodies, and having suntan lotion to protect their bodies from the sun’s harmful rays is a must-have for everyone; and a smoothie is a refreshing and healthy drink people would enjoy while they are out in the sun.

Other places to open up a juice or smoothie franchise could include a college town because some college students, including the athletes, take good care of their bodies and would appreciate healthy smoothies.  Near workout facilities including gyms, YMCA or shopping malls where everyone gets thirsty after a long day of shopping for that perfect outfit, yet they don’t want to ruin their figure with a pretzel or a cookie and a smoothie would be the ultimate healthful snack.

One could make more money owning their own juice or smoothie franchise than simply working for someone else who owns the company.  Being granted a franchise license often involves different requirements outlined by the franchise business.  Many of the rules of franchising require that only a franchise business sells the franchise juice or smoothie and no other label or brand even if it is cheaper or could make someone more money.
