A rare opportunity to acquire a portfolio of four established, highly profitable cafés serving West Coast-inspired smoothies, açaí bowls, juices, and healthy grab-and-go options. Each unit is located within a flagship Equinox gym across some of Chicago's most dynamic districts, offering immediate access to a built-in gym membership base plus public foot traffic. Offered together as a single turnkey transaction.

The four units generated approximately $1.97M in combined net sales in 2025 ($2.13M gross), with roughly $251K in adjusted EBITDA, and every month of 2026 to date has outperformed the same month a year prior. Only 4% in royalties! Rent for 4 locations TOGETHER ($5292/mo)

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:
- Four turnkey operations with an existing, recurring member base
- Prime locations in premier neighborhoods, tech business hubs, and dense residential corridors
- Third-party delivery capabilities with active storefronts on all major platforms
- Limited direct smoothie bar competition in each trade area
- Genuinely absentee-friendly: run by two owners with full-time careers elsewhere, on a salaried management layer with multi-year manager tenure. Manager compensation is fully expensed, so earnings are not disguised owner labor
- Proven franchise model with 20+ locations in Vancouver since 2002, locations in Los Angeles, and multiple units across Chicago
- Strong, verifiable reputation: 4.6 average Google rating across the portfolio, top location at 4.8

FRANCHISE SUPPORT:
- Comprehensive training and operational guidance
- Brand and marketing support from corporate headquarters
- One month of intensive training with the corporate operations area manager
- Ongoing partnership and support systems

LOCATION ADVANTAGES:
Each café combines steady Equinox member traffic with high-density residential and business presence. The inside-Equinox positioning provides consistent customer flow while public accessibility expands market reach significantly. Together the four units span premier Chicago neighborhoods and business districts, diversifying the portfolio well beyond single-location risk.

PRODUCT OFFERING:
Fully customizable smoothies and açaí bowls featuring fresh, wellness-focused ingredients. The menu includes cold-pressed juices, specialty drinks, and curated healthy meals and snacks appealing to health-conscious consumers seeking convenient, quality options.

GROWTH OPPORTUNITY:
Because the current owners run the portfolio part-time, meaningful upside remains untapped: expanding delivery at under-penetrated units, corporate catering in dense office districts, a supplement retail push, register upsells, an events and partnership program, and loyalty-app marketing to an already opted-in base.

The listing is marketed confidentially and gated behind an NDA. Full financials, franchise disclosure documents, operating agreements, and equipment schedules are shared with qualified buyers only after they execute an NDA, and the listing notes that transfer is subject to franchisor and landlord approval and that the buyer must meet franchisor qualification requirements.
