Franchise Info

Brothers Michael and Aaron Serruya, ages
19 and 20, wanted to buy a franchise, but no one would take
a chance on them. So they started their own frozen yogurt
shop,Yogen Fruz, in 1986 in Toronto, Ontario, and began franchising
a year later. Their brother, Simon, joined the company in
1989, the same year Yogen Fruz expanded into the United States.
Now based in Markham, Ontario, Yogen Fruz
has more than 1,100 units across the world in both traditional
and nontraditional locations. The company also owns I Can't
Believe It's Yogurt!, Bresler's Ice Cream and Yogurt, Swensen's
Ice Cream, and Java Coast Fine Coffees.
