Main Squeeze Juice Co., a Louisiana-based juice and smoothie bar franchise, is heading east to the Sunshine State, opening its latest location in Jacksonville Beach, Florida.

With 22 locations in Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, this location will be the brand's first in Florida, according to a company press release. Spencer Turner, 25, is behind the August opening and will serve $5 smoothies and juices as well as provide free T-shirts for the first 100 customers.

"When I first started considering franchising, the majority of publications featured brands whose offerings provided little to no nutritional value," Turner said in the release. "As someone who prioritizes their health, it was essential that I brought a business to my community that provided nourishment and helped others live healthy lifestyles. After meeting with the team at Main Squeeze, I knew I found a brand that I resonated with and would help make healthy easier."

Prior to Main Squeeze, Turner worked for a pharmaceutical company, which he said lacked compassion and sincerity in his day-to-day interactions. After leaving such a high-pressure industry, he fell in love with the authentic feeling that Main Squeeze provided.

"Now, more than ever, it seems as though people are looking for a community," Turner said. "Main Squeeze's strong philosophy of health and wellness goes beyond their menu items and is embodied by their team and the Main Squeeze family. With the opening of the new store in Jacksonville Beach, I hope to create a central location for people to come together and enjoy one another's company."
