Others have been doing it longer, but the category has lacked real innovation from early pioneers and a real commitment to going beyond simply being healthier than ice creameries, fast food shakes or knock-off smoothies from nom-smoothie companies.

We believe there should be a real commitment towards more natural sweeteners, reduced sugars, probiotic-based products and superfruits. The challenge is delivered on such ambitions without compromising taste. Planet Smoothie will meet the challenge and be the first to market.
