Our story

A daily habit. A bigger idea.

Before Zenblen, Tom Zhang brought a small blender to his consulting job in Chicago. Making a smoothie at his desk became a shared routine as colleagues joined in.

That experience raised a question: how could a fresh smoothie fit more easily into a busy day, without the shopping, preparation, and cleanup?

Zenblen grew from that idea. With support from Chicago's mHUB community, the team developed a self-service kiosk that blends smoothies on demand. Today, Zenblen brings that experience to the places people already spend their time.

The goal is simple: make a fresh choice easier to find, whether you're heading to class, taking a break, or moving through a busy workday.
