At Fruit Shack Smoothies & Yogurt, “we’re not selling junk food,” owner Yatin Parekh asserts. “It has to be healthy, and I have to believe in it.”

Fruit Shack Smoothies & Yogurt also has a food truck available for events, school functions and parties.

Repeat customers believe in Fruit Shack. On a recent Monday afternoon, when the strip of businesses along First Avenue was a little slow, people lined up at Fruit Shack for handmade smoothies infused with their preferred supplements.

Yatin is a Tucsonan who doesn’t mind summer’s heat. “The hotter the better” for business, he said.

The crowd favorite, according to Manager Tina Casadei, is the Signature Strawberry Smoothie, composed of apple and guava juice, banana, non-fat frozen yogurt, raspberry sherbet and strawberries, infused with the guest’s preferred supplements.

“Most of our ingredients are fresh and organic, and very high quality,” Yatin said. “I don’t want to sacrifice on the quality.”

Fruit shack owner Yatin Parekh

Fruit Shack’s strength is smoothies, with supplements and blend-ins. It sells low-fat shakes, non-fat frozen yogurt and more.
