DALLAS – Red Mango, one of the most popular and fastest-growing retailers of authentic nonfat frozen yogurt has launched a franchising Web site, www.redmangofranchising.com, to support the company’s franchise growth and meet the growing demand to buy a Red Mango franchise. 

Red Mango expanded from eight stores to more than 40 locations across the U.S. in 2008, with another 10 stores expected to open by May. 

“The interest in our franchise opportunity has been incredible,” said James Franks, vice president of franchising.  “In this economy, you don’t hear about companies with our national growth numbers, and we’re very focused on how we grow our brand for the success of our entire system. That’s why we designed a Web site specifically to answer the flood of questions we’re getting on a daily basis from people who are serious about buying a Red Mango franchise.” 

Franks said Red Mango is on track to double the size of the franchise network in 2009, and this Web site will be the information gateway to share news, upcoming events and development plans about the concept with interested investors. 

Franchise prospects include multi-unit franchisees of other concepts, successful business entrepreneurs and people looking for a successful career opportunity and the chance to be their own boss. 

At www.redmangofranchising.com prospects will find financial requirements, an overview of the business model and online registration details for a series of Red Mango open house events being planned in major cities throughout the country where the chain is expanding.
