Company Overviews

About Yogen Fruz Worldwide

Brothers Michael and Aaron Serruya, ages 19 and 20, wanted to buy a franchise, but no one would take a chance on them. So they started their own frozen yogurt shop,Yogen Fruz, in 1986 in Toronto, Ontario, and began franchising a year later. Their brother, Simon, joined the company in 1989, the same year Yogen Fruz expanded into the United States. Now based in Markham, Ontario, Yogen Fruz has more than 1,520 units across the world in both traditional and nontraditional locations. The company also owns I Can't Believe It's Yogurt!, Bresler's Ice Cream and Yogurt, Swensen's Ice Cream, and Java Coast Fine Coffees.

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.
