Sambazon, an acai bowl and smoothie shop, has landed at the Pittsburgh International Airport, giving travelers access to acai imported from Brazil.

"We are beyond excited to bring Sambazon's nourishing acai bowls and smoothies to travelers at PIT. As someone who travels often, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find fresh, high-quality, and convenient meals in airports," Sambazon Co-Founder and CEO Ryan Black said in a press release. "Our acai bowls check all those boxes — delicious, nutritious, and energizing. Whether you're an on-the-go traveler, a dedicated airport employee, or an airline crew member, we're here to fuel your journey with the power of acai. Welcome to a tastier, healthier way to travel."

The Sambazon at PIT marks the company's latest airport location behind recent openings at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in 2024, and last month at Pensacola International Airport.

Sambazon's organic and Fair Trade acai is harvested and produced in two eco-friendly processing facilities in Brazil.
