EarthFruits Yogurt: A Franchise Opportunity with a Purpose

EarthFruits Yogurt is a franchise for the future – part of the fast-growth $23 billion a year frozen dessert market, a great tasting indulgence, a good-for-you food, and a commitment to a sustainable planet. With the most unique blend of yogurt flavors and nearly 100 toppings, plus our commitment to rainforest restoration, we offer you an opportunity to be part of something significant.

A Franchise Business Model that Works

EarthFruits Yogurt has developed some of the most unique and beneficial yogurt flavors made with real super-fruits. In addition to our delicious, nutritious yogurt, customers appreciate our clean, inviting stores and friendly staff. The self-serve model has grown in popularity throughout the nation, making it the future of ice cream and yogurt franchises.

Our self-serve, low labor model means easy operations and the potential for higher profits. Franchisees also benefit from our relationships with local and national vendors, as well as the Amazon Rainforest co-ops where we source the wild-harvested tropical fruits. EarthFruits Yogurt also provides catering and delivery options in eligible areas.

Commitment to Community; Promise to the Planet

EarthFruits Yogurt franchisees are encouraged to invest locally and support their community through sponsorships and events.

EarthFruits Yogurt is a leader in the green movement. To date, we have planted over 300,000 trees. In addition to supporting rainforest co-ops and tree planting, we use compostable packaging and utensils, as well as eco-friendly cleaners, trash liners and more.

Broad Appeal Means Franchise Success

From students to families to health and body-conscious people, everyone likes a reasonably priced, guilt-free indulgence. EarthFruits Yogurt is good for both you and the planet. With 49 new locations projected to be built in 2011/2012, we know that customers turn to us to satisfy their desire for delicious, healthy food and ecological responsibility.

We have several attractive options. We have flexible cafe formats, including self-serve, kiosk and co-branding opportunities. To continue meeting the high demand for our product, we’re also seeking both an executive model and area development applications. 

We offer a 15% discount on the initial franchise fee to veterans who qualify for our veterans discount program.
