“As a recent college graduate I could have found an entry-level position at any Boston-area business, but I come from a family of entrepreneurs and understand what it means to be your own boss. That’s why I jumped right into franchising – to control my own work and have great financial independence. I chose Red Mango because it’s my ideal business model, and an ultra-modern, extremely health-conscious concept that serves customers a product that tastes great and is good for them.”

“I was senior vice president of stores for GameStop with more than 4,500 locations, and I loved my job. But after 20 years of growing a powerhouse chain, I was ready for a change and felt the call to own my own business. That’s when I discovered Red Mango and an incredible chance to introduce the brand in several forms. Today, I have five stores in Dallas and one in College Station. They include traditional stores, co-branded locations and self-serve designs. I get to prove the business model daily and enjoy its success in ways I never knew in the corporate world.”

“The first time I tasted Red Mango yogurt in Long Island I was hooked. I started treating myself to it every day. Then I found out Florida was open for market expansion and it seemed too good to be true. It was the perfect opportunity to utilize my family’s real estate business and customer service experience and introduce the brand to an audience we know well. We negotiated a five-store deal because we believe in the creamy texture of the yogurt, the real health component of the ingredients, and the whole life experience of the store.”
