The leading, enduring, frozen yogurt brand for franchising
In less than five years, Pinkberry has established a dominant leadership position in the frozen yogurt category and a cult-like following with its customers. Not only has Pinkberry enjoyed enthusiastic reception and strong growth throughout its first markets in Los Angeles and New York, Pinkberry has also become an iconic brand name. |
 |
Pinkberry is strategically poised for rapid growth, both in the U.S. and globally, fueling its domestic expansion via a partnership with HMS Host — our first airport store opening in the Summer of 2009. Furthermore, additional store expansion is underway in Northern California, Texas and Florida. We have also signed with leading international operator, M.H. Alshaya Co., to expand the brand into the Middle East, opening 34 stores in nine countries.

Our Executive Team
Our Executive Team
The growth of Pinkberry is supported by a seasoned, effective Executive Team and Board of Directors.
In early 2007, Starbucks Coffee Company Chairman, Howard Schultz, approached Pinkberry because he considered the founders to be “visionary entrepreneurs” and the brand a “cultural phenomenon”. Through Maveron, a venture capital firm co-founded by Schultz, Pinkberry has benefitted from the backing and guidance of an experienced board of directors. In addition, Pinkberry’s Chief Executive Officer, Ron Graves, has assembled a world-class team of senior leaders from Coca Cola, Walt Disney, Starbucks, Blockbuster, California Pizza Kitchen, Jamba Juice and The Cheesecake Factory. |
