North Carolina-based organic juice and food bar franchise Clean Juice will launch its newest franchise store in Austin, Texas, US on 29 July.

It will be situated at 6611 S Mopec Expressway, Suite 600, in the William Cannon area across from Arbor Trails Plaza.

The franchise will be owned by father and son duo franchisees Jeff and Ty Mobley and is said to be the first Clean Juice store in the city.

Ty Mobley had considered opening a smoothie bar in the city and decided to go with Clean Juice after visiting one of its stores just north of Houston and being impressed by “the USDA-certified organic” selection.

Ty Mobley said: “We were impressed from the first moment we walked through the doors. The cleanliness of the restaurant and the freshness of the food presentation was on point. We ordered a few items from the menu and though I entered with smoothies on my mind, I left with a love for the hot menu items and the cold-pressed juices.”

The new store will be run by Ty, with his father providing oversight.

Last month, Clean Juice opened its fifth store in California, in the city of Dana Point. Owned by franchise partner Mendi Bartell, the new store is located in the Prado West Development shopping and residential plaza.
