Relevant Case Study
A nationwide rollout of TurboChef ovens with Open Kitchen connectivity is helping Smoothie King expand its menu, create new revenue opportunities, and gain greater visibility across its 1,100 locations.
After a successful 56-oven test in 2025, Smoothie King completed its nationwide rollout in June 2026. All 1,100 locations received an Open Kitchen-connected TurboChef oven, and all new stores going forward will do the same.
The ovens are helping Smoothie King expand its menu with hot food offerings, including Egg Clouds and flatbreads, creating new revenue opportunities for franchisees.
With Open Kitchen, Smoothie King can remotely manage menu updates, monitor oven usage, and access service data across its restaurant network. Limited time offers can be rolled out quickly, while underperforming menu items can be removed with less effort.
The result is a more connected hot food program that gives Smoothie King the visibility and flexibility to continue expanding its menu and growing its per-store revenues.
