Who we are

Yogurtland is a specialty yogurt franchise that has seen a high rate of growth since its inception in 2006. The company takes pride in providing a wide and innovative variety of flavors while using natural, high-quality ingredients and active cultures. Yogurtland offers more than 200 flavors, ranging from the traditional to the unique. It has partnered with companies such as Hershey's to create new and exciting flavor combinations, toppings and mix-ins. Also available are dairy-free, gluten-free and no-sugar-added options. The self-serve model allows consumers to customize each serving with sauces, fruit and other toppings.

Why choose Yogurtland?

Yogurtland stores tend to be relatively easy to operate. The self-serve concept remains at the core of Yogurtland, allowing it to keep costs down and thus provide high-quality product at lower prices than major competitors. Yogurtland also serves ice cream and shakes. Franchisees do not have to invest in extensive cooking equipment and can also keep labor costs down. Yogurtland products are not sold in grocery shops or venues other than Yogurtland stores.

The variety of the flavor selection and the buffet-style service make Yogurtland attractive to customers. The company's product appeals to health-conscious consumers who want a delicious treat. Yogurtland provides low-fat, fat-free, gluten-free, dairy-free and low-sugar options. Frozen yogurt products include live cultures and flavoring is sourced from authentic, fresh ingredients.

The company encourages franchisees to open several units. It also provides training before opening, post-opening support and participation in advertising campaigns. Yogurtland also emphasizes community outreach; its non-profit organization, Yogurtland Cares, partners with a variety of charitable organizations.
