Grow Your Portfolio: The SweetFrog Multi-Unit Franchise Path

The sweetFrog Advantage

One frozen yogurt shop can be an exciting venture, but building an empire is where the real fun happens. When you lean into the multi-unit franchise opportunity offered by sweetFrog, you have a chance to bring our self-serve model and customizable treats to neighborhoods across your community, all while drawing revenue from multiple locations. Because our operations are streamlined and our product has remained a fan favorite since we first launched in 2009, moving from your first location to your third or fifth feels like a natural progression rather than a frantic juggle.

We’ve spent years perfecting systems that are simple to replicate across units. We know that as a growth-minded owner, you don’t want to reinvent the wheel every time you open a new door. We provide the blueprint, the branding, and the support that allows you to grow when you’re ready. This means you can focus on the big picture of your portfolio from the moment you join the sweetFrog brand, taking advantage of our guidance and resources as you plan your next move.

Flexible Business Models to Choose From

The various business models built into the sweetFrog franchise opportunity give owners the flexibility to choose a business that fits their budget and helps move their goals forward. Each format offers unique benefits to create a lasting business opportunity in your market.

Here’s a close look at your options:

  • Traditional Model: If you want to bring the full sweetFrog experience to your community, our Traditional franchise model is the perfect choice, allowing you serve families, friends, large groups, and dessert lovers in your area.
  • Kiosk Model: Featuring a compact design, the Kiosk franchise model gives you the freedom to deliver sweetFrog’s frozen yogurt combinations to shopping malls, airports, and other high-traffic locations, all while enjoying a smaller footprint.
  • Vehicle Model: The sweetFrog Vehicle franchise model was made for franchisees who want to engage with guests on the go at festivals, parties, and other popular events. With the flexibility to move beyond a fixed location, you can bring the sweetFrog experience to new faces while building genuine relationships in your area.

For multi-unit franchise owners, these multiple franchise models allow you to choose between different formats to build your portfolio. Whether you want to own multiple brick-and-mortar locations, or a mix of kiosks and food trucks, the possibilities are endless. Paired with our site selection and design assistance, we make it easy for you to grow your footprint and expand with confidence and support.
