What is the profile of a Frogurt Franchisee? A Frogurt owner/operator must be a high-energy person who is motivated to serve others, communicates effectively, and has a successful track record in business and management at the level required to operate a high volume Frogurt store. We are seeking proven leaders, whose characteristics and traits adapt well to a Frogurt environment.
How much does it cost to open a Frogurt franchise? For a Frozen Yogurt franchise, the estimated initial investment ranges from $207,700 to $326,500. These fees vary depending on the location size and general make-up of the Frogurt store. Often a sizable portion of the above investment may be returned to the Franchisee in the form of Tennant Allowance reimbursement distributed by the landlord shortly after completion of construction. Frogurt does not provide financing directly, however we work with several lenders who provide loans for qualified candidates.
How do I advertise my restaurant?Frogurt corporate marketing department assists and coordinates marketing activities. Additionally through contributions to a marketing fund, Frogurt markets on the Franchisees behalf.
How long does it take to open a Frogurt?
Times may vary depending on site selection and lease negotiations. Typically, a Frogurt build-out takes approximately 6-8 weeks.
Where do I purchase approved products and supplies?A significant benefit of owning a Frogurt franchise is the volume discount pricing that has been negotiated with a number of food suppliers. A single telephone call brings the food and supplies to your restaurant on a weekly basis. We are constantly renegotiating prices and testing new products to provide our customers the highest quality products at the lowest prices available.

Other operating fees associated with operating a Frogurt business are outlined on the Franchise Offering Circular which is available upon request.
What kind of profits can I expect?Frogurt Frozen Yogurt is like any other independent business in that no one can guarantee profitability. The location of your restaurant, its size, your management abilities, rapport with customers, your commitment, and many other variables make it impossible to predict future results. Furthermore, federal law prohibits us from making any earnings claims.
