Interview with Brazilian Açai Brand "Oakberry" Founder Georgios Frangulis

Interview with Açai Brand Oakberry Founder Georgios Frangulis`

Internationalization is in the brand’s DNA: Oakberry’s first shop in a foreign country was opened in 2018, at the Florida Mall, a traditional mall in the city of Orlando, USA. The idea was to meet the “healthy fast food” demand in the American market and test the concept and the standard of the chain. The expansion occurred by means of master franchisees, and today the smoothies and bowls company that uses 100% natural açaí as the basis of its menu has 235 units, 30 of them overseas.
In the past few years, the brand expanded to the Arab world, China, Spain, Peru and Portugal. “We also continued expanding in the United States and opened the units of Flagship in Miami, New York and California. We created a strong brand, which is positioned as a major international chain and is present in important places in each country, including Bondi Beach in Australia and the Dubai Mall in the United Arab Emirates”, says Georgios Frangulis, CEO and founder of Oakberry.
The company’s plan included an acceleration phase in 2020, and not even the pandemic made Oakberry change its plans. According to the executive, the chain is about to open 10 more units this year. Among the actions taken by the company to ensure its successful global operations is the standardization of products and establishment of an export flow for açaí.
Also, the brand carried out a market and local culture analysis to define specific menus for each country. Branding, on the other hand, is global.
“In 3.5 years, in addition to the 200 units in Brazil, we also took OAKBERRY and Brazil to the four corners of the world, and we were invited to offer our products in events like Super Bowl, US Open, Australian Open and F1. The brand has global power”, completes Georgios.

Great success story. I only just realised Oakberry are in Australia. Must try in that case!

[@justindelgado9233]

This is hands down the best Acai I’ve ever had. One opened up in Huntington Beach where I live, but sadly had to close only months after it opened.

[@amalk9750]

I wish there was a location here in Tampa florida, the closes one to me is in Miami which for me in an hour to 2 hour drive 😩 one day I’ll take a trip there👍🏽

[@gmelendez2524]

Mr. Georgios Frangulis: Would you consider buying the Acai Fruit from Kerala, India? We are growing it here.
