Multi-Unit Operator Bringing 8 Yogurtlands to DFW

Charlie Yang was so impressed with his first trip to Yogurtland in 2007 that he knew he wanted to open one of the yogurt stores. The next year the entrepreneur opened his first Yogurtland in Southern California, and now manages 9 Yogurtland locations throughout Southern California, Arizona, and Texas.

Now his company, the Yang Group, has signed a development agreement to open up to 8 more Yogurtland shops in the Dallas/Fort Worth market. The first one will open this summer in Fort Worth.

The Yang Group is a multi-generation family-run business that includes father Charlie Yang who is chairman, and his son Allan, who is CEO.

"We longed for a family business opportunity that embodied an inclusive culture, service minded environment, unique high-quality products, and we found that with Yogurtland.  We have confidence in the company, have been welcomed as part of their family, and are committed to growing our business with Yogurtland," said Allan Yang.

The Yang's vision is to be an integral part of the community where they operate locations so that their guests will feel as part of the family.  Their shops support local schools, government, hospitals, hold fundraisers for community groups, and more.

"It's important for Yogurtland to be a place where people can connect and enjoy moments of joy, and for us to give back to those very people who support it wherever we can," added Charlie Yang.

Yogurtland is one of the nation's first and largest self-serve frozen yogurt/ice cream brands. The company has more than 320 locations across the U.S., Australia, Dubai, Guam, Myanmar, Oman, Singapore, Thailand, and Venezuela.
