Fro-Yo on the Go, New Mobile sweetFrog Leapfrogs into McLean

MCLEAN, VA. - sweetFrog®, a premium frozen yogurt franchise known for its family-orientated culture, has signed a new franchise agreement with partners Kimberly Douglas and Jennifer Roseboro. The pair will open a colorful mobile truck with three frozen yogurt machines and two topping bars to Fairfax County.

sweetFrog is a proud member of Vet Fran and is committed to helping America’s first responders and military service members and veterans with entrepreneurship opportunities, which intrigued Douglas and Roseboro. Prior to hopping into business ownership, Douglas worked for 14 years as a police officer and team leader on the anti-terrorism team. She also is a celebrated veteran with the US Army.

Founded in Richmond, VA in 2009, sweetFrog® has grown by leaps and bounds (or hops), and now has more than 300 locations. sweetFrog® prides itself on its core value of never being too big to lose its commitment to the local communities. Through local partnerships, fundraisers, and dedication to the local police, sweetFrog® is constantly looking for more ways to give back.

“Kimberly and Jennifer are great additions to the sweetFrog® family. With Kimberly’s military experience and their combined dedication and commitment to sweetFrog®, they are ready for success as sweetFrog® franchisees,” said John Wuycheck, Senior Vice President of Franchise Development. “We know McLean and the surrounding areas will be well-served by Kimberly and Jennifer.”

Douglas, Roseboro and every sweetFrog® franchisee have the benefit of unrivaled franchisee support from Kahala BrandsTM and its affiliates. Every franchisee has full access to an R&D team with chefs dedicated to sweet and savory menu innovations, an in-house social media team, an in-house creative team to help with ads, promos and coupons, a full-service construction team, a hands-on week-long training program, continuing education and more.
