Challenges in the Mobile Juice Business:

Competition:

 Saturation: The market is flooded with mobile juice vendors, leading to fierce customer
competition and potentially lower profits.
 Large chains: Large juice chains can offer economies of scale and lower prices, making
it difficult for smaller mobile businesses to compete.

Logistics and Operations:

 Perishable ingredients: Fresh fruits and vegetables can spoil quickly, leading to waste
and higher costs.
 Equipment maintenance: Juicing equipment requires regular cleaning and maintenance,
adding to operational costs.
 Finding prime locations: Securing high-traffic locations with permits and regulations
can be challenging.

Marketing and Customer Acquisition:

 Visibility: Attracting customers in a crowded environment can be difficult.

safety and juicing techniques can be challenging.

Solutions for the challenges:

ingredients, or specific health benefits to differentiate yourself.

conscious professionals, or allergy sufferers.

transportation costs.

times.
