“It’s no secret that Jamba enthusiasts love their Jamba Juice® smoothies, so we knew we had to get every last detail right with this grocery store variety,” said Steve Sklar, Senior Vice President Marketing, Inventure Foods. “We worked diligently with the Jamba Juice team to make sure our at-home varieties offered the same consistency and great taste customers have come to expect at a Jamba Juice store.”

"The Jamba brand name stands for great taste and high quality with a dose of fun—and those attributes were central to our efforts in developing an at-home version of three of our very popular classic smoothies,” said Susan Shields, Chief Marketing Officer, Jamba Juice Company. “To deliver on our brand promise, we’ve put an extraordinary amount of effort into the development of the Jamba All Natural Smoothies and we are confident that our current Jamba fans will love them. In addition, we expect to introduce the Jamba brand to a whole new set of fans in areas of the country where we don’t currently have stores.” The all natural smoothies are available at grocers nationwide including Wal-Mart. http://www.jambajuice.com/athome/jamba-at-home-smoothie-locations.html
