Kirk Perron: Healthy Lifestyle Advocate and Entrepreneur

Kirk Perron is a healthy lifestyle advocate and avid cyclist who turned his passion into a successful business. On 31 March 1965, he established Jamba Juice with his first store located in San Luis Obispo, California with his three friends, Joe Vergara, Kevin Peters, and Linda Ozawa Olds, in the business. Jamba Juice was later incorporated as Juice Club, Inc. in 1990 in San Luis Obispo, too.

Jamba Juice Company has its headquarters in Emeryville, California with more than 800 locations across the United States (26 states, so far) as well as in Canada, Mexico, the Bahamas, the Philippines, and South Korea. The restaurant retailer has around 287 company-owned locations, 517 franchise-operated stores, all in the United States, as well as 45 international outlets.

The company has expanded its menu from fruit and vegetable smoothies to several healthy food options including sandwiches, salads, wraps, and flatbreads. Perron has certainly influenced thousands of people to adopt a healthy lifestyle even on the go.
