TEMECULA, CA — Specialty beverage franchise Sip Fresh is coming to Temecula.
The San Marino-based company — known for its fruit-based juices, teas and smoothies —announced earlier this month that it plans to open a store in the Promenade Temecula mall early next year.
“Sip Fresh thrives in top-tier malls, and I’m eager to bring our innovative beverage options to the Promenade Temecula,” said Kevin Tam, a franchisee who is leading the Temecula opening and currently operates the brand’s Westfield UTC Mall location near La Jolla.
Sharon Arthofer, CEO and Founder of Sip Fresh, said, “We’re thrilled to bring Sip Fresh’s handcrafted, fresh beverages to Promenade Temecula and the surrounding community. Our expansion into Temecula signifies the tremendous growth the Sip Fresh brand has had throughout California — where Sip Fresh all began.”
According to its website, Sip Fresh opened its first store in 2017 “with a mission to create delicious, handcrafted juices, in an interactive environment and unique presentation.”
The menu expanded to include more than 30 different beverages, including catered offerings.
In addition the the Westfall UTC mall location, the Sip Fresh website shows store locations in Torrance’s Del Amo Mall, National City’s Plaza Bonita, as well as Arrowhead Towne Center in Glendale, Ariz.
“Sip Fresh’s growth extends beyond California, with recent developments in the Sunbelt and East Coast regions,” according to an Oct. 16 news release from the company. “Just weeks ago, the brand announced new agreements in Colorado and Florida, solidifying its plan for national expansion.”
In Florida, Sip Fresh has its eyes set on the Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Fort Lauderdale markets, in addition to an Orlando location that is anticipated to open in early 2025.
