"Our average unit volume sales were up over ten percent in the past year which can be attributed to substantial growth on the food side of the business through bold, flavorful new products like these two sandwiches," said Mike Rotondo, Chief Executive Officer of Tropical Smoothie Cafe. "While we have not forgotten that smoothies are our heritage, it's the growth in sandwiches, wraps and other center-of-the-plate options that's drawing the attention of guests and potential franchisees."
For the first time ever, Tropical Smoothie Cafe is partnering with FRANK'S® RedHot® Buffalo Wing Sauce for co-branding efforts to spice up the new Island Buffalo Sandwich. This product features grilled chicken, Mozzarella and Gorgonzola cheese, topped with tangy, house-made slaw tossed in a citrus dressing, and covered in a mouthwatering buffalo cheese spread. The Moho Mojo Chicken Club is served with bacon, avocado, zesty mojo sauce, and topped with a signature slaw to satisfy anyone craving a delicious, full-flavored sandwich. Both sandwiches are served on freshly toasted brioche bread.
"We have seen a huge following from our customers who keep coming back time and time again for our unique and flavorful options that they can't get anywhere else," explained Lisa Dimson, Chief Marketing Officer for the brand. "This new line of hand-crafted sandwiches will not disappoint anyone looking for a hearty yet exciting bold take on a typical classic chicken sandwich."
