Smoothie King chief marketing officer Marianne Radley said: “We’re declaring it’s a ‘no bummer summer’ with our summertime drink line-up that offers a burst of flavour with SK Refreshers and Lemonade Smoothies.

“Our SK Refreshers are made with real fruit, contain no artificial flavours or preservatives and seriously taste like summer in a cup.”

In March 2024, Smoothie King signed multi-unit development agreements to open seven new venues in Las Vegas.

The deal was part of a broader growth strategy to add 100 new stores in 2024 and is expected to significantly increase the brand’s footprint in the Las Vegas market, where it currently has three locations.

The new venues will be in neighbourhoods including Henderson, Summerlin and Spring Valley.

In the same month, the company collaborated with entertainment group Dude Perfect to launch a new, limited-edition Dude Perfect Smoothie across the US.

This partnership has introduced blue spirulina, a novel ingredient, into the smoothie chain’s offerings.
