Smoothie King Celebrates Reopening of Mount Pleasant Store

New Smoothie King Location Aims to Provide Mount Pleasant Residents Smoothies with a Purpose

Smoothie King, the world’s leading smoothie brand committed to inspiring guests to live healthy, active lifestyles, is now open in Mount Pleasant. The new store, located at 976 Houston Northcutt Blvd., is owned and operated by a new management team led by Paula Conway.

Paula has been in the restaurant business for 15 plus years with her husband Jeff. Always on the hunt for the latest and greatest food concepts, Paula and Jeff found Smoothie King in 2014 and fell in love with what they had to offer. They immediately researched options for business ownership and opened a location in West Ashley and Summerville. When they were given the chance to take on reopening the store in Mount Pleasant, they knew it was an opportunity they couldn’t pass up.

As part of its vision to be an integral part of every health and fitness journey, Smoothie King’s diverse menu features 70 purposefully-blended smoothies tailored to each guest’s needs – all of which fit into one of four purpose categories: Fitness, Slim, Wellness and Break Time.

Smoothie King implemented its Clean Blends™ promise last year as part of its mission to be more transparent about what ingredients go and don’t go into each smoothie. Through this promise, Smoothie King is committed to using more whole fruits and organic vegetables – like mangoes, blueberries, kale and spinach – to blend more nutritious, great-tasting smoothies. The Clean Blends™ promise also means zero added sugar in many purpose blends and a menu with absolutely no artificial preservatives, flavors, colors and other ingredients on the brand’s “No No List.”

“We want to let Mount Pleasant residents know that we’re here and under new management,” said Paula. “My team is prepared to serve healthy, delicious, and purpose-driven smoothies to the locals.”
