Grand opening today for Smoothie King
The Smoothie King store at 2321 Miamisburg-Centerville Road that we first told you about in March will host a grand opening celebration from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. today, May 21.
The smoothie shop, located across from the Dayton Mall in Miami Twp. and the first publicly accessible Smoothie King in the Dayton area — is operated by franchise owners Eric and Lynne Pierce-French of Huber Heights. The franchise owners said in March that they would like to open two to four more locations in the Dayton area in the next four years, although precise locations haven’t been selected. In a news release announcing Saturday’s grand opening, the franchise owners said the new store is “the first of many Smoothie King stores to debut in the Dayton area.”
Today’s grand opening will include appearances by radio station “Hot 102.9 Blazin’ Hip Hop and R&B,” the Dayton area Humane Society offering cats and dogs looking for a new home, Miami Twp. EMS/FIRE/Police vehicles and the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office. A ribbon-cutting is scheduled for 12:30 p.m., and there will be a giveaway of balloons, stickers, autographed memorabilia, Smoothie King gear and other items.
Smoothie King offers more than 65 smoothies made to order with fruit, juices, and a mix of vitamins and nutrients. It also offers retail products, including sports beverages, energy bars, health snacks, vitamin supplements, herbs, minerals and other sports nutrition products.
Smoothie King is a privately owned, New Orleans-area-based franchise company that currently has more than 600 units operating in 32 states and the Republic of Korea. A Smoothie King under different franchise ownership opened last year at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. It is open only to those who have access to the base.
