27-Year-Old Entrepreneur Opens Second Main Squeeze Juice Co. Location in Two Years in Jacksonville

TL;DR

Main Squeeze Juice Company has announced the opening of a second location in Jacksonville, Florida, as part of its growth plans. The new location is owned by 27-year-old entrepreneur Spencer Turner, who opened his first Main Squeeze Juice Co. location in August 2021.

JACKSONVILLE, FL — Main Squeeze Juice Company® continues to make 2023 a year of bold growth for the 28-unit juice and smoothie bar chain. Piggy-backing off of its impressive first quarter, the franchise has announced its plans to open a second location in Jacksonville, Florida on May 20th at 13546 Beach Blvd Unit 1A, Jacksonville, FL 32224.

After graduating from college and working in the pharmaceutical industry for several years, Spencer Turner wanted to make a change in his life. After deciding to go down the franchising route, he was looking for a brand that would bring something different to Jacksonville. While browsing a franchise magazine, he discovered Main Squeeze Juice Co. and fell in love with the brand’s unique menu, proprietary technology and welcoming environment.

In August 2021, Turner opened his first Main Squeeze Juice Co. location. Seeing what a difference he has been able to make in the lives of his community, the 27-year-old is excited to bring the brand’s delicious, healthy products to even more people in Jacksonville.

“There’s plenty of pizza, burger and taco places in the area, but something that’s healthy and that tastes good is hard to come by — especially in the quick service area,” says Turner. “It’s exciting to be a part of a brand that is so firmly rooted in what is going on with consumers right now and has such a solid plan for success.”

Heading into the second quarter, Main Squeeze Juice Co. is expecting doubled signings and several openings to close out the first half of 2023. In addition to Florida, the brand is also focusing in markets such as Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.

“We are thrilled to be opening a second location so quickly in Northern Florida,” said Omar Herrera, Marketing Director for Main Squeeze Juice Co. “Our plans for the second quarter always included opening several new locations to round out the first half of 2023, so a second venue in Jacksonville is right on target.”

Herrera attributes their rapid fire growth and incredible popularity to combining a modern concept and a smart expansion strategy with a menu and a mission that has its finger firmly on the pulse of a health-focused, environmentally aware public.

“We have curated a one-of-a-kind, all-natural menu that includes fresh, cold-pressed juices and flavorful smoothies, with the highest quality ingredients. And we are deeply committed to being devoted stewards of our environment as well,” says Herrera. “We’re excited to have franchisee partners like Spencer who champion the Main Squeeze Juice Co. vision, and look forward to further serving the Jacksonville community only the freshest and highest quality juices and smoothies.”

Main Squeeze Juice Company, based in New Orleans, Louisiana, has been franchising its 100% plant- based, fast-casual concept since 2017. The original Main Squeeze, built in Lake Charles, Louisiana, achieved early success, prompting the Main Squeeze team to take their passion for healthy eating and meal replacement to the next level. The company has 28 locations open and 61 more in development, and Main Squeeze’s mission is to make Healthy Easier® nationwide. (www.mainsqueezejuiceco.com)
