Yogen Früz, a frozen yogurt chain with 1,100 stores in over 20 countries, announced today it recently signed a development agreement that will allow TRMOP LLC, a Honolulu-based master franchisee, to open 7 new stores, at least 5 of which will be located on Oahu. TRMOP and Yogen Früz are targeting Honolulu (Downtown Business District and Ward area), the Aiea/Pearl City area, and East Oahu for the first store openings.
TRMOP LLC will call upon its extensive experience in supply/logistics, customer service and administration, and financial management and economic analysis to open and manage each location to success, says Yogen Früz.
“Yogen Früz expects to capture the business of local residents – as well as tourists – in the state of Hawaii with our unique blending system, which combines delicious and nutritious frozen yogurt and fruit,” says Aaron Serruya, co-founder of Yogen Früz. “This is one of many recent development agreements that Yogen Früz has entered into as part of our U.S. expansion efforts and is a great step for the franchise as a whole.”
Yogen Früz’s expansion to Hawaii comes shortly on the heels of several U.S. development agreements that include locations in New York, Texas, and Illinois (to name a few), as well as a recent international agreement in Australia.
“Hawaii is an important part of Yogen Früz’s expansion, and we’re excited to be involved with such a trusted, well-known, and well-established name in the frozen yogurt business,” commented Tina Marie, Executive Vice President of TRMOP, LLC.
Yogen Früz’s signature create-your-own yogurt/fruit blends are made from a combination of low-fat, non-fat or no-sugar-added frozen yogurt and any of the 16 varieties of flash-frozen fresh fruit. The blends are made to order and mixed in the company’s proprietary machines right in front of the customer. Yogen Früz also offers a non-fat plain yogurt that is produced as a soft serve and enjoyed with fresh fruit and a variety of toppings on top. The low-fat and non-fat yogurts (as well as the dairy smoothies) are packed with added probiotic cultures that have been shown to promote a healthy digestive system, improve mineral absorption, fortify the immune system, manage lactose intolerance and even help lower cholesterol.
