Training & Support

Franchise owners receive support throughout the entire franchising process from selecting a location, sizing the store, training staff, marketing and operations. Post-opening assistance is provided to help owners as they grow to maximize profits. SweetFrog corporate offices assist with marketing and advertising, so franchise owners are not left to themselves trying to build a customer base.

History

In 2009 a family with entrepreneurial spirit moved to Richmond, Virginia and determined it was the right time to open SweetFrog Premium Frozen Yogurt. Although most frozen yogurt stores were on the west coast, this family felt the low cost of operation and the tasteful fun of frozen yogurt made for the right opportunity. Later that year, the first SweetFrog location opened in the Short Pump subdivision of Richmond. The restaurant caught on and has leaped to a whopping 332 locations. All except eight are in the United States. In late 2018, SweetFrog was acquired moving its headquarters to Scottsdale, Arizona where it is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MTY Food Group.

Ideal Candidate

SweetFrog seeks candidates who are determined to provide the best in customer experience and who are responsible leaders. Skills in food and beverage, restaurants or in a related industry will also benefit candidates. Owners of SweetFrog franchises are expected to be hands-on in the day to day operations. A dedication to quality, an outstanding customer experience, cleanliness and a well-run operation is a must.

SweetFrog owners should be good leaders, communicators, mentors and know how to motivate employees. Strong skills in math, finance, operations and a passion for following processes and procedures also make for a good candidate.
