Jamba Juice(R) Debuts Line of All Natural, Squeezed-To-Order Fresh Juice Blends

New Beverages Double Jamba's Fresh Juice Offering In Over 700 Stores

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Mar 05, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) --The company that introduced their consumers to the benefits of freshly squeezed juices over 20 years ago, Jamba Juice (NASDAQ: JMBA), a leading healthy, active lifestyle brand, announced today the launch of their juice blends platform into over 700 stores. Three new juice blend beverages, available starting Tuesday March 13, are a complement to Jamba's existing fresh squeezed carrot, orange, and wheatgrass juice offerings and provide further testament to the Company's long standing legacy of providing all-natural, nutritious fresh juice offerings to consumers and their commitment to developing innovative new products in support of their mission to inspire and simplify healthy living.

The three new juice blends include: a juice blend of fresh squeezed orange juice, carrot juice, and bananas; a juice blend of fresh squeezed orange juice and mangos; and a juice blend of fresh squeezed orange juice, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. Each 16 ounce size of freshly squeezed juice blend is squeezed-to-order to provide the most optimum fresh and nutritious offering and provide at least two servings of fruit and/or vegetables, giving consumers a convenient and easy way to get more nutrients from fruit and vegetables into their diets.

"The expansion of our fresh juice offerings is only 'Phase One' of our fresh juice initiative, with more to come," said James D. White, chairman, president, and chief executive officer, Jamba Juice Company. "We will continue to innovate in the health and wellness space and have plans concurrent with our 'Store of the Future' work to deliver new juice bar concepts in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle. We will continue to look for bolt-on acquisitions to expand our fresh juice offerings and, as the leading health and wellness brand in the quick service restaurant space, enhance our legacy in fresh fruit and vegetable juicing."

Jamba is also focused on deepening the education and nutritional expertise available to consumers in stores with the launch of a "Master of Blending Arts" (MBA) program. The program will elevate the customer experience of Jamba as a premier provider of healthy lifestyle products by advancing Jamba team members knowledge in product nutrition, the benefits of juice and juicing, and their expertise in custom beverage creation.

These initiatives are part of Jamba's strategic priorities outlined in the Company's "BLEND 2.0 Plan" and are part of a series of critical actions Jamba is undertaking to position the Company for accelerated growth and long term shareholder value.
