Ever since Robeks opened its first location in 1996, associates and franchise owners across the country have felt deeply passionate about the benefits of healthier eating, and what the company can do to help their guests and customers maintain active and healthy lifestyles. Today, Robeks is more committed than ever to: create innovative ways to reach the daily 9 – 13 servings of fruits & vegetables; find every opportunity to use the freshest, premium-quality ingredients possible; open more locations for clients’ convenience; deliver value for money on every patron’s visit; and always stay on top of their most important goal — “A Robeks Experience to Delight You.”
The national franchisor has also launched a systemwide marketing campaign recently to emphasize the health and wellness benefits of products blended with the Açai (a-sci-ee) berry such as Robeks Açai Energizer™ smoothie and Super Açai Bowl™. The Açai berry contains more antioxidants than any other edible fruit currently known in the world.

Açai is an all natural energy berry native to the Brazilian Rain Forest. This unique berry with its royal purple pigment provides a strong combination of antioxidants, essential amino acids, essential omega oils, dietary fiber, plant sterols, trace minerals and protein. In fact, açai is a better source of health-promoting antioxidants than even red wine, blueberries or pomegranates. Antioxidants are known to fight free radicals which can damage delicate cellular tissues. Açai also contains Omega 6 and 9, essential fatty acids which may help promote healthy cholesterol levels.

Robeks encourages guests to select specific products that support health and wellness, and help them maintain their active lifestyles. Robeks smoothies are the ideal meal replacement for consumers facing a hectic day, unable to prepare a healthy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Packed with the dietary benefits of no-sugar-added Dole fruit, non-fat frozen yogurt and natural juices, Robeks smoothies can be fortified with Robeks nutritional boosts like whey or soy protein, Powerbek™ or Intellibek® to help maintain physical strength, vitality and mental fitness. Robeks first introduced Açai products more than five years ago, and continues to innovate its menu with tasty, high quality beverage and food items that provide consumers healthier options.

Robeks is passionate about helping people maintain healthier lifestyles by serving a great-tasting selection of premium, made-to-order fruit smoothies, squeezed-fresh juices and snacks, plus sandwiches/wraps, salads and frozen yogurt (in most locations). Robeks serves millions of guests annually at 142 franchise locations in 16 states and the District of Columbia. Robeks ranked 16 on Restaurant Business Magazine’s 2007 list of Fastest Growing Companies.
