This is a rare chance to acquire a high-performing, nationally branded smoothie franchise located in one of North County San Diego’s busiest regional malls. With two major national retailers directly in front of the store, this location enjoys heavy daily foot traffic and strong visibility. The same owner has operated this business successfully for 23 years, making it one of the most stable and proven franchise units in the region.

The owner typically works 10AM–2PM, and the business is currently staffed with 3 part-time employees. If both owners work, no weekday staff is needed.
