With a firm plan in place, youโll hire the architect and contractor, get the necessary permits, and construction will begin.
3) The Finishing Touches

FAQS
How is a Red Mango franchise different from other quick-serve brands?
With more and more consumers realizing the importance of a healthy diet and lifestyle, thereโs never been a better time to own a frozen yogurt franchise. Red Mango is more than just frozen yogurt though, itโs a healthy cafรฉ. In addition to frozen yogurt, we also serve up smoothies, parfaits, fresh squeezed citrus and green juices, Power Bowls, and other grab nโ go items. We truly enjoy helping our franchisees build strong, successful businesses and make a positive impact in their local communities.
What are the franchise fees and royalty rates?
$30,000 for each traditional location. For a non-traditional location, the initial franchise fee is just $15,000. Military veterans receive a 50% discount on a tradi-tional location. Our ongoing royalty fee is 6% of gross revenues up to $450,000 and then 1.5% of gross revenues thereafter during the remainder of 12-month measurement period. Your required contribution to the brand development and advertising fund is 2% of sales with an additional 1% required to be spent by you on local promotion.
What is the typical cost to build a Red Mango?
Per our current FDD, the range is $305,000 -$469,000 for a traditional store, typically in a strip center. Non-traditional locations, such as kiosk and food courts in malls, range from $193,500 to $385,000 per our current FDD. These estimates include construction, equipment, permits, architectural fees, franchise fees, ini-tial marketing expenses, initial inventory, signage, miscellaneous expense, and 3 months of operating capital. Construction and remodeling costs vary widely, depending upon the location, design, configuration and condition of the premises, the condition and configuration of existing services and facilities such as air conditioning, electrical and plumbing, and the terms of your lease.
Does Red Mango provide financing?
No, but we do have franchise financing companies that we work with who we can refer you to. Red Mango is registered with the SBA.
Can I secure a territory to develop multiple Red Mango locations?
Yes, if you have the operational and business experience to manage an area and will commit to develop a minimum of 3-5 stores depending on the size of the territory.
What is the typical size of a Red Mango store?
Ideally, between 800 and 1200 square feet plus a patio, with ample parking. Drive thru endcap spaces are ideal if available. Non-traditional locations, such as kiosk and food courts in malls, range from 250 to 800 square feet.
Do I need to be involved in the operations?
Your Red Mangoยฎ franchise must be supervised on-premises by a Managing Owner. If the franchisee is an individual or general partnership, the Managing Owner will be the individual franchisee or one of the general partners. If the franchisee is a business entity, the Managing Owner must hold at least a 10% equity interest in the entity. The Managing Owner must successfully complete our initial training program, must devote full time efforts to the management and operation of the franchised business. If you operate multiple Red Mango stores, of if your Managing Owner will not devote full time efforts to the management and operation of the Store then, in addition to the Managing Owner, you must appoint an individual to serve as your Key Person and will manage the day to day operations of the Store. Your Key Person must also attend initial training with you.
What are the requirements to become a franchisee?
We want to see our franchisees succeed, so restaurant or comparable retail experience is strongly preferred, along with good knowledge of the local market and experience in building and managing teams. Financially, youโll need a good credit rating and at least $300,000 net worth and $200,000 cash available for investment.
What are the hours of operation?
Typical hours are from 7am-11pm 7 days per week. This varies by trade area and shopping center.
What training is provided?
Initial training takes place at one of our flagship locations, depending on your where your store is located. Initial training is 5-7 days in the flagship store and covers each working shift. Store opening training (SOS) takes place on the days leading up to your Opening Day, and includes 4 days of crew training, 1 day of live โfriends & familyโ training, and post opening training.
How long will it take to open my Red Mango location?
Site identification and lease negotiation averages 6 months from signing of a franchise agreement. Once you take possession of the premises it generally takes about 12-20 weeks to design, build, and open. This varies significantly by municipality and property.
