A Little Levity in the Shadow of the Republican National Convention: Politics Gets Juices Flowing at NYC Jamba Juice
Jamba Juice Soothing Political Differences One Smoothie at a Time
September 2004 (Newstream) -- Politics seems to get everyone's juices flowing. But surprisingly, it's the juice that's bringing the parties together. While the Republican Convention continued into its third day in New York City, Jamba Juice, the category-defining leader in freshly blended-to-order fruit smoothies and juices, hosted a healthy, non-partisan "John and George Drink for Free" lunch event at its Times Square location. The store blended up complimentary non-partisan smoothies for a crowd of John's, George's, Ralph's and every Joe and Jane who wanted to cast his or her vote for healthy competition and unified fun.
"It doesn't matter if you're campaigning for the highest office in the land, a Democrat named George or a Republican named John, our Jamba Juice team wants to support healthy competition by energizing everyone -- especially during this election year," said Paul Clayton, president and CEO, Jamba Juice.
During this hotly contested election year the candidates actually agree on the red, white and blue ingredients -- strawberries, bananas and blueberries -- found in Jamba Smoothies. While Laura Bush and John Edwards support their mate's platforms on the campaign trail, they have been known to share similar tastes when it comes to ordering their favorite Jamba Protein Berry Pizzazz™ Smoothie. But when it comes to Jamba Smoothies, no one is undecided. It's likely George W. would satisfy his thirst for orange juice (and support his Texas and Florida constituents) with an Orange-A-Peel™ to the people, while New Englander John Kerry would root for a Cranberry Craze® to stir things up. Underdog and people's champion Ralph Nader would be fueled in his quest for power with the sustaining Orange Dream Machine®.
From California to the New York Isle, Jamba Juice is campaigning for a happy, healthy and energized America by providing nutritious and delicious meal and snack options for all. Jamba Juice has more than 440 company-owned and franchised/licensed stores in 25 states nationwide. The company inaugurated its first store in Manhattan in February 2004. Since then, Jamba Juice has opened locations throughout New York City -- in Columbus Circle (Whole Foods Time Warner Center), Times Square and Bryant Park. September 1 marks the opening of Jamba Juice's fourth Manhattan store, located in Chelsea, at 176 5th Avenue at 23rd Street. The company expects to have eight stores opened in the city by the end of the year.
