Joe & The Juice (stylized in all caps) is a chain of juice bars and coffee shops around the world. As of 2019 it has over 300 locations in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.[1] The restaurants serve predominantly coffee, juice, and sandwiches.[3]
History[]
Joe & The Juice was founded in 2002 by Kaspar Basse,[4] at the time in his late 20s. The company is based in Copenhagen, Denmark.[5] It sells coffee, tea, sandwiches, fresh juices, smoothies, and veggie shots made with organic ingredients.[6]
In 2013, Valedo Partners bought the company for $48 million, though Basse retained a 10 percent stake. General Atlantic invested in October, 2016, to help fund expansion into the United States.[4]
Although Joe & The Juice competes with both coffee shops like Starbucks and stores like Jamba Juice, Basse has tried to develop a different atmosphere at the restaurants, opting instead for what has been described as an "edgier" vibe.[7] Managers are generally given autonomy over their stores.[7]
Locations[]
In addition to locations throughout Scandinavia, Joe & The Juice has locations in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Washington, D.C., and New York City. Across Europe it has locations in Reykjavik; Antwerp; London, Oxford, Birmingham, Liverpool, Stansted Airport and Manchester; Nice; Lucerne, Zurich, Amsterdam and nearby Amstelveen, Hamburg; as well as in Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul, and Sydney.[1]
