Prepaid Smoothie Box: Pre-portioned Ingredients Delivered to Your Door
People want a healthy smoothie every day, but sourcing fresh ingredients is time-consuming โ a box of pre-prepared portions solves that.
The business runs on a monthly subscription: the customer receives a box at home with pre-prepared, precisely weighed portions of fruit, vegetables and supplements (such as spirulina or ginger) โ everything goes straight into the blender with liquid and the smoothie is ready. The key challenges are cold-chain delivery, correct packaging to preserve freshness, and long-term customer retention. Margins depend on ingredient selection and order volume. The business can be launched locally with a small number of subscribers and scaled gradually.
Healthy eating hits one consistent wall: buying fresh fruit and vegetables regularly is time-consuming, produce spoils before you use it, and the result in the blender varies every time. Supermarkets don't offer pre-portioned packs, and ready-made commercial smoothies are loaded with added sugar or preservatives.
