Yoforia Hits Charlotte
Atlanta-based Frozen Yogurt Company announces locations in Charlotte, NC
Atlanta, GA (October 22, 2009) Yoforia, having established frozen yogurt domination in Atlanta, has announced that they are expanding outside of the Peach State and opening two new stores this winter in Charlotte, NC.
The popular neighborhoods of South Charlotte and Myers Park have been chosen as the ideal environment for the rollout of Yoforia Frozen Yogurt in North Carolina. The new stores will be located in existing shopping centers of Selwyn Corners (2823 Selwyn Ave., Suite J) and The Shops at Piper Glen (6432 Rea Rd., Suite A-2-near Trader Joes). Each store opening will bring 10 new job opportunities to the area. Yoforia will infuse their traditional 1,200 square foot locations with their signature bright orange and green colors and clean, modern design. Operating hours will be:
Mon-Thurs, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.; Fri-Sat, 11 a.m. to 12 a.m.; Sun 12 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Founded in 2007, Yoforia quickly became a sensation in Atlanta. The Yoforia mania led the company to expand to three locations within one year with plans for two more metro Atlanta openings in 2009. This winter, Yoforia has officially grown beyond the Georgia border and into the southeast with the impending opening of two Charlotte locations. A group of North Carolina-based private investors have championed Yoforia’s expansion.
At only 25 calories per ounce, this guilt-free treat is made of organic milk and yogurt and touts a refreshing ‘sweet yet tart’ flavor. Yoforia offers four flavors in its ‘low-cal’ lineup—original, pomegranate, dark chocolate and mango. Toppings range from seasonal fruit to granola, breakfast cereal favorites and popular cookies. Both stores in Charlotte will feature self-serve yogurt machines and topping stations, which will enable customers to create a personalized Yoforia treat.
“We are excited to introduce Yoforia to a new audience – Atlanta has been so good to us and we know that Charlotte will receive us just as enthusiastically,” said Jun Kim, Director of Operations and Expansion at Yoforia. Kendra Dodd of Charlotte is excited about Yoforia’s entrance into North Carolina. “I frequent Atlanta and fell in love with Yoforia during a recent visit, she said. I look forward to enjoying Yoforia in Charlotte with my family and friends.”
