Vitamix is a Romanian retail brand operated by Adams Vision SRL. It specialises in natural health products, vitamins, minerals, dietary supplements, organic foods, superfoods and natural cosmetics. The company combines physical retail stores with an online shop, allowing customers to access a broad portfolio of products dedicated to everyday wellbeing. Its own supplement range, Adams Supplements, complements products from other brands.

The concept combines a specialised product range with a standardised retail model. Franchisees receive a store prepared according to the brand’s visual identity, an operating manual, an IT system and centralised support for pricing and promotions. Territorial exclusivity is also offered, helping protect each partner’s local market. According to the company’s franchise website, Vitamix has a network of 77 stores in Romania. The business began operating online in 2008 and opened its first physical store in 2015.

Investment and franchise requirements

Vitamix is primarily expanding within Romania, with stores in cities including Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Iași, Brașov and Timișoara. The company is seeking partners in additional Romanian locations and considers proposals from entrepreneurs who have suitable commercial premises. Its published franchise offer focuses on domestic expansion; an international franchise network has not been confirmed.

The minimum total investment stated by Vitamix is RON 50,000. This includes an initial franchise fee of RON 15,000 net, excluding VAT, while at least RON 35,000 is allocated to working capital and/or a security deposit. The franchisor provides the store fit-out and equipment as part of its start-up package, according to the published offer.

The company describes its remuneration model as a monthly commission plus quarterly bonuses. However, the published information does not specify the exact commission rate, bonus formula or other recurring franchise charges. Prospective franchisees should confirm these terms directly with Vitamix before signing an agreement. They must also budget for operating expenses such as staff wages, utilities, consumables, routine maintenance, repairs, insurance and participation in approved local marketing campaigns.

Training, operations and growth prospects

Vitamix provides a structured onboarding programme for new franchisees. The start-up package includes initial training, implementation assistance, store equipment, social media profiles, a listing on the company website and an operations manual. Ongoing support includes periodic online meetings, field visits with feedback, centralised public relations, promotional campaigns and customer loyalty programmes. The franchisor also provides product merchandising guidelines and a centralised IT system to help maintain consistent operating standards across the network.

Franchisees are responsible for the day-to-day management of their stores, customer service, staff, stock availability and compliance with the network’s operating procedures. They must participate in training and follow the company’s pricing, promotional and merchandising guidelines. They are also responsible for local operating costs and approved local marketing activities.

Vitamix does not publish a verified revenue forecast or guaranteed profit figures for individual franchisees. The financial performance of each store will depend on factors such as location, customer traffic, product mix, operating costs and sales management. Prospective partners should therefore request a location-specific financial plan before making an investment decision.

The company’s stated expansion strategy focuses on developing its Romanian franchise network, entering additional cities and diversifying its product range. In May 2026, Vitamix announced the opening of a franchise store in Cluj-Napoca, demonstrating its continued use of partnerships to expand nationally. Although the parent company has also explored exports of its products, international franchise expansion has not been confirmed in the available information.
