Pinkberry, Santa Clarita
Fro-yo girl here. I’ve been tracking froyo shop openings and closings all year. This year, I found 33 new businesses serving froyo in California, including seven new Nick the Greek branches, four new Menchie's branches, four new Golden Spoon branches, and three new Pinkberry branches.
This was slightly more than 2024, when I found 30 new businesses that serve froyo.
I found fifteen froyo shop closings in 2025 (vs. 14 in 2024). Two froyo shops were lost in the LA wildfires. The two shops had the same ownership, and they also closed another location primarily due to the strain from losing two shops.

My goal is to track any new venue that serves froyo in soft serve form, including restaurants, convenience stores, pop-ups, froyo trucks, froyo trailers, vending machines, amusement parks, stadiums, etc. It's easier to track openings, since they're usually announced, but many places close quietly.
With 25 new froyo businesses set to open in 2026, that's considerably more than the eight we found at the end of 2024. Notably, Yogurtland plans to open 13 locations in California in 2026.
