Booster Juice Inc. is a Canadian company famous for its juice and smoothie bars. It started in 1999 and has grown to become a popular spot for healthy drinks.
The chain is known for its smoothies. These are made with ingredients like pure juice, fruit sorbet, vanilla frozen yogurt, frozen fruit, and fresh yogurt. The company was founded in Sherwood Park, Alberta, by Dale Wishewan. It quickly grew to over 400 stores across Canada, mostly through franchising. This means other people can own and run their own Booster Juice stores.
The Story of Booster Juice
The idea for Booster Juice came from its founder, Dale Wishewan. In 1999, he noticed there weren't many places in Canada that sold fresh juices and smoothies. Before opening his first store, he tested his smoothie recipes at home with his family and neighbors.
The very first Booster Juice opened in November 1999. It was located in Sherwood Park, a town just east of Edmonton. Dale Wishewan has been the company's President and CEO ever since.
The company became very successful. It set a Canadian record by opening 50 stores in its first two years. While Booster Juice stores are all over Canada, most of them are still in Western Canada. The company's success also led it to open stores in other countries.
