Kahala Brands History

In 1981, Kathi and Kevin Blackwell started their own juice company, Surf City Squeeze. This later became a franchise.

Over the years, Surf City Squeeze was acquired by other companies, which also acquired larger companies. Today, these brands are all brought together under one name; Kahala Brands.

Some of the franchised names that Kahala owns include Blimpies, Pinkberry, Cold Stone Creamery, Salsa Catering, Planet Smoothie, and Baja Fresh.

In July 2016, MTY Food Group acquired Kahala Brands for $310 million.

In May 2020, two of Kahala Brands franchises, Baja Fresh and The Counter Custom Burger, opened ghost kitchens to produce meals in less than 300 square feet of kitchen space.

In September 2019, Kahala Brands franchises began offering delivery service via PostMates.

Kahala Brands corporate office will remain in Scottsdale, Arizona.
