When our company was looking for a concept to franchise and we formed our company, there were three things that were important to us. We wanted to create opportunities for our people, our employees, we wanted to serve our communities, and we wanted to inspire a healthier lifestyle. And so, Tropical Smoothie Cafe was a perfect fit for us. The mission to inspire a healthy lifestyle and to encourage that through our products and our environment was right on with what we were looking for in terms of investment. And it makes us feel good every day, coming to work, recruiting our team members, talking to our guests. Because we know that when they choose to visit with us that they’re actually doing something better for themselves. And so, as far as an investment, and as far as our own personal satisfaction of being a part of something that actually wants to inspire a healthier lifestyle, it was a perfect fit for what we were looking for as an organization.
