    About Baskin-Robbins

    As a teenager in the 1930s, Irv Robbins managed an ice cream shop in Tacoma, Washington. Bored with serving traditional flavors like chocolate and vanilla, Robbins began experimenting, mixing fruit and candies into the ice cream. After serving in World War II, Robbins bought an ice cream parlor in Glendale, California. Three years later, he convinced his brother-in-law, Burt Baskin, to join the business. The two men flipped a coin to see whose name would go first on the sign. Baskin won, and in 1945, Baskin-Robbins was born. Today, Baskin-Robbins has locations in more than 50 countries, each serving the company's famous 31 flavors of ice cream as well as frozen yogurt, sherbet, cakes and drinks. Baskin-Robbins is a subsidiary of Allied Domecq, parent company of Dunkin' Donuts and Togo's. Franchisees may operate combination stores, co-branding Baskin-Robbins with either Dunkin' Donuts or Togo's.

    About FroyoWorld

    In the summer of 2010, FroyoWorld opened its first Frozen Yogurt Lounge on the Yale University campus in the town of New Haven, Connecticut. With our award winning Original Tart froyo recipe in hand, we introduced the self-serve frozen yogurt in Connecticut. We had overwhelming support for our product from the community, so we opened a few more stores, and then we opened a few more after that. Finally, we became a franchise so that entrepreneurs and business folks could bring the success we've built to their area. In less than a year, we had gone from a start-up to a successful franchising business. We now have nearly 40 locations open in New England and Puerto Rico, over 100 flavors that rotate in every store, and tons of amazing toppings and frozen yogurt treats. Become a part of FroyoWorld's international brand as we expand to markets all over the globe. Our brand continues to grow because of our exceptional tasting yogurt and great customer service that is associated with the FroyoWorld brand. Yo This, Yo That, Kiwi This, Cherry That, Orange, Pink, Red or Blue � don't be fooled. FroyoWorld is the brand for you. The FroyoWorld Development Team has established global contacts and nurtured valuable relationships with distributors and vendors. This allows us to purchase goods internationally, in bulk, and at discounted rates. We then pass these discounts on to our FroyoWorld Franchisees.
