Rush Bowls is at the intersection of convenience, trends and multiple booming industries. Stir in an entrepreneur-friendly approach to starting a franchise, and you’re already on the right foot to success. Here’s a more detailed look at the factors that make Rush Bowls a smart investment as part of the acai industry.
The acai berry industry is a $500 million industry. The South African berry is a naturally sweet, Instagram-friendly superfruit packed with health benefits. This photogenic fruit is catching on. Acai berry sales have more than doubled in the last two decades, putting Rush Bowls franchise owners in place for high acai bowl profit margins.
Now let’s look at the other industries that also come into play. The fast-casual industry is another $52 billion a year. Customers love the flexibility of coming in, ordering and then deciding to leave or stay for their meal. Our model also lets you decide if you want your franchise locations to be dine-in or simply to-go counters.
Juice and smoothie bars are thriving, with another $2 billion annually connected to those industries. The numbers make it clear — customers are turning to healthy food in friendly models with a taste that doesn’t compromise nutrition. Rush Bowls provides the opportunity to become part of the $1 trillion healthfood industry.
You can expect an average, initial investment of $197,000 or more, depending on local markets and how much capital you have. You will make a 2% local brand marketing contribution, pay a $39,000 franchise fee and will have a 6% royalty fee.

In addition to help getting your business started, you’ll have continued support at the corporate level so you can access training on how to boost acai bowl profit margins.

Customers can't get enough of the taste and benefits of acai bowls, and the market isn't keeping up with the demand. There were fewer than 1,000 acai bowl shops in the United States by the end of 2021. Acai bowls cost more than the average smoothie, but market trends show that people are not only willing to pay, but they can't get enough.
It's easy to catch new customers and turn them into regulars through the ease and convenience of the fast-casual industry. Whether that's grabbing an acai bowl on the way home from yoga or snagging some for a study break, you are making it easy for others to feel good about what they put in their body. With low franchise fees and a business at the center of several thriving industries, you can feel secure about your investment. And, if you ever need help, experts are available to help enhance your acai bowl profit margins.
