none around there? Its a little store where you buy smoothies, they are good too, some people say that they are too pricey, but if you think about it, its equilavent to one drink at a nightclub.

i doubt its a couple of million to start one, that sounds retarded. I will look into it and let you know. I'm thinking more like 30,000-50,000 dollar range to get started.

Here are the requirements from their website:

The qualifications for multiple unit development opportunities differ based upon area desired, development schedule, and number of stores to be developed.

I found this on the website in the FAQ section:

What is my initial investment?
Smoothie King franchises are available for the following costs:
Single Unit Franchisees: The owner has the right to develop one store. The franchise fee is $25,000.

weird al's post was "pre-requisites", sounds like the person has to have a net worth of 100,000. That is different from a franchise fee. Anyways, I was just curious....... probably woudn't do it though.
