Fast-growing frozen yogurt retailer launches expansion campaign to add 20 locations in the region.

Red Mango, a fast-growing retailer of all-natural nonfat frozen yogurt, announced that it will begin awarding franchise agreements in Atlanta as part of a national expansion campaign.  Recently honored with Nation’s Restaurant News’ 2009 “Hot Concepts!” award, the company plans to open some 20 stores in the area over the next five years.

“We’re experiencing the strongest franchise growth in our company’s history, and Atlanta is the perfect market to add to our network,” said James Franks, vice president of franchising for Red Mango. “Despite the economy, the interest in our business and delivering on our brand promise for health, taste and style only gets bigger.”

Red Mango launched a national franchise program in 2009 that has resulted in some 40 franchise signings with a commitment of 209 new locations to-date.  The franchise is on track to reach as many as 550 locations across the country in five years. Red Mango opened its first store in Los Angeles in July 2007 and has grown to almost 60 locations across 14 states.
