SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - July 8, 2008) - Yogurt Bar, the first dedicated frozen
yogurt chain in the city, today announced the grand opening of Yogurt Bar
at Mission -- just steps from the Westfield Shopping Center on Mission
Street, between 3rd and New Montgomery. The expansion signifies a demand
for customers wanting all natural frozen yogurt complimented by fresh fruit
and other toppings. Yogurt Bar's secret recipe incorporates natural
ingredients bringing a delicious yogurt taste that is both unique and
refreshing.
In addition to the yogurt line -- which boasts an astoundingly low 17
calories per ounce, customers can also order custom smoothies from the
following blends: Green Tea Zen, Berry Delicious, Chocolate Lover's and
Tropical Breeze.
Yogurt Bar's core product line includes three staple frozen yogurt flavors,
original plain, chocolate and green tea, along with the option of a fruit
flavor that rotates monthly. Toppings include 21 options such as a large
selection of fresh berries and tropical fruit, as well as dry choices such
as mochi, nuts, cereal and chocolate. New additions to the Yogurt Bar menu
include parfaits made with non-fat natural yogurt, fresh fruit and granola
and a variety of other healthy snack and beverage options including Pop
Chips and Hansen's Natural Sodas, to name a few.
"We have been thrilled with the reception San Francisco has given us over
the last year and are pleased that we can meet the demand of residents
wanting a healthy dessert alternative,'" said Racquel Olea, founder of
Yogurt Bar. "Yogurt Bar at Mission signifies a new chapter for us as we
will cater to downtown and serve both residents who may be shopping and
out-of-town visitors in the area. We also look forward to offering a fresh
alternative to nearby businesses."
To celebrate both the one-year anniversary of Yogurt Bar in San Francisco
and the grand opening of the Mission Street location, Yogurt Bar is
thanking their customers by offering a second yogurt or smoothie for 50
percent off with the purchase of any full size frozen product. Yogurt Bar
will run the promotion through July 19th.
New options being rolled out with the grand opening include both gift card
choices and a Customer Loyalty program that rewards frequent visitors with
special perks. Yogurt Bar at Mission also plans on offering catering
options for businesses located within five blocks.
Yogurt Bar at Mission is now open for business. Regular store hours include
