The Jamba Juice Bike Blender

A stationary bike equipped with a blender won’t probably be described as a wonder machine, yet pumping one’s adrenalins by cycling on it for at least five minutes gives a mighty boost to a remarkable cause.

Dubbed as the Jamba Juice Bike Blender, this contraption was brought in from San Francisco for use in the Jamba Juice events. The Bike Blenders’ presence in the Philippines ushers in Jamba Juice Philippines’ new initiative of promoting not just healthy lifestyle but also the support for the local industry and community livelihood that is rooted in what is arguably the world’s best mangoes: Guimaras mangoes.

“The Philippines is already known for the ferment of some of the best tropical fruits. Jamba Juice, which uses the highest quality of fruits from different countries, is already using our bananas. We are furthering this commitment to quality and freshness by promoting Guimaras mangoes for use in blending more delectable smoothies,” shares Sharon T. Fuentebella, Managing Director of Jamba Juice Philippines.

By working with the Bureau of Plant Industry–Guimaras National Mango Research and Development Center (BPI-GNMRDC) and with the full support of President and CEO of Jamba Juice James D. White, Jamba Juice Philippines launched the Give Me Five initiative. Through this initiative, customers who ride the bike for five minutes get to donate one mango seedling that will be planted in the Guimaras Mango Park.

“We’ll be putting the Bike Blender in our stores and in our events to engage our customers in this project that aims to support the local industry and the local communities, whose livelihoods are dependent on the Guimaras Mango trade,” says Mark Gamboa, Marketing Director of Jamba Juice Philippines.

Fuentebella adds that to make this initiative successful, Jamba Juice Philippines has to supply the demand for Guimaras mangoes worldwide, since the fruit will be used in more than 800 store locations across the globe. “We are very positive about the abundance of good fruits that this project will bear since it will also highlight Guimaras as a tourist destination where the best mangoes can be found.”

So, the next time you see the bikes at Jamba Juice stores and events, don’t hesitate to ride it for five minutes–because the Give Me Five for a mango seedling initiative promises to lead to richer and more fruitful lives.

Jamba Juice Alabang Town Center

The better-for-you experience championed by California’s famed lifestyle brand, which was first introduced at the dynamic district of Bonifacio High Street South, can now be enjoyed in the cosmopolitan community that flourishes south of the metro.

“Our market’s response when we first introduced Jamba Juice in the country was overwhelming. We’ve been receiving countless requests from customers to open the store in their preferred locations,” shares Sharon T. Fuentebella, Managing Director of Jamba Juice Philippines.

Located at the newest wing of Alabang Town Center—The Street, Jamba Juice’s second flagship store complements the city’s innate laid-back sophistication, as it boasts of a two-floor store where people can converge and chat while enjoying their choice of smoothies, oatmeal and breakfast wraps.

“Alabang is known for being the hometown of cyclists—a niche that is an example of the active market that Jamba Juice has been supporting even before they came to the Philippines,” says Mark Gamboa, Marketing Manager of Jamba Juice Philippines.

A Fruitful Celebration

Beyond the brand’s expansion in the south, Jamba Juice is in fact celebrating a remarkable feat. “We are well received by the market and due to the excellent performance of Jamba Juice Philippines, we are now recognized as the biggest market in Asia,” says Fuentebella.

In line with this success, Jamba Juice President and CEO Mr. James D. White, Vice President for Global Franchise and Development Mr. Thibault De Chatellus and Jamba Juice International Franchise Leader Mr. Steve Miller flew from California to Manila to celebrate with the team.

Meanwhile, Gamboa adds that the brand’s second store is just the first salvo in their group’s plans for Jamba Juice, as the team wants to let the whole country experience its uniquely blended beverages. “We want to let everyone know that Jamba Juice represents the ideals of a lifestyle anchored on active living and exceptional quality that the brand is known for.”

Pledge to Goodness

The Max’s Group of Companies—which brought Jamba Juice in the Philippines, has also furthered the brand’s commitment to healthy lifestyle by upholding what our country is known for: a ferment of the sweetest mango in the world.

“Jamba Juice sources the highest quality of fruits from around globe, which enables them to blend delicious tasting, all natural smoothies and juices. Together with the Bureau of Plant Industry – Guimaras National Mango Research and Development Center (BPI-GNMRDC), we are lobbying to use the mangoes here in the Philippines,” explains Fuentebella.

More than the aim to bank on the fruit’s quality and taste, the advocacy also aims to support the local industry and the local communities whose livelihood is dependent upon the Guimaras Mango trade. “We are working with BPI-GNMRDC to support for the research and development of the Philippine mango industry,” adds Fuentebella.

With all the efforts that Jamba Juice Philippines is putting to highlight their ideals on view, the brand will undoubtedly thrive in the country as a top-of-mind choice when it comes to smoothies, drinks and snacks that banners an exceptional experience and lifestyle that is better-for-everyone.
