Founded in 1996, Robeks Corporation is a juice-bar chain headquartered in Manhattan Beach, California. It offers premium fruit smoothies to diet-conscious fast-food consumers. The chain offers "boosts" that can be added to any smoothie to enhance the nutritional content of it. Robeks also offers special nutritional drinks, such as the "800 Pound Gorilla" that contains 26g of protein per 12 ounce serving, according to information provided by Robeks. There are also drinks such as "Pro Arobek", containing nutritional supplements targeted to those who work out often. In addition to work-out drinks and fruit smoothies, Robeks offers custom-made whole-fruit frozen yogurt, sandwiches, wraps, salads, chips, protein bars, nutritional supplements, prepackaged drinks, and at some locations, hot soups and teas. Robeks markets itself as a healthier alternative to fast food. Its emphasis is on providing all natural fruits and juices in its smoothies, which differentiates it from rivals such as Smoothie King, Juice Zone, or Jamba Juice. The most popular drinks include, the "Strawnanaberry" (often incorectly pronounced "Stra-wana-berry"), the Passionfruit Cove, "Guava Lava", and the "800 Pound Gorilla" which has 50 grams of protein.Of late, Robeks Fruit Smoothies and Healthy Eats have been expanding their franchise to the east coast.
