New Menchie’s Store in Fremont Celebrates Grand Opening with Week of Fun Festivities

Menchie’s, the friendliest place on earth with a mission to make every guest smile, will be celebrating the opening of its new location at 5030 Mowry Avenue, in Fremont, starting on Saturday, July 13.

Menchie’s seven-day grand opening celebration will spread smiles from July 13 to July 19, and is packed with free giveaways including t-shirts and Menchie’s merchandise, family-friendly activities and free servings of its best-in-class frozen yogurt.

Fremont resident and store owner Tom Koai is excited to bring Menchie’s to his community after spending 30 years in the high-tech industry.

 “I was looking for business opportunities, and fell in love with the Menchie’s culture and community-oriented philosophy,” said Koai. “Menchie’s offers top quality frozen yogurt in a pleasant atmosphere where friends and family can relax and socialize. It really is the best product and service at an affordable price.”

The new self-serve store offers an unparalleled experience that is welcoming, fun and interactive, with arts and crafts for kids, enjoyable music and indoor/outdoor seating areas where friends and family gather.  Guests can choose from a variety of rotating yogurt flavors and delicious toppings for unlimited combinations, ensuring happiness in every cup.

Menchie's is also committed to giving back to each community it serves. Stores partner with local schools in fundraising activities and education incentive programs. Each Menchie's store donates thousands of dollars in cash and products annually to local schools to support student programs. 

The company is a world leader in ensuring best-in-class products, and considers itself the ambassador of frozen yogurt quality worldwide. Menchie’s ensures that only the highest quality milk and flavors are used to make its frozen yogurt. The proprietary collection is made from the milk of “smiley” California cows, which have not been treated with artificial growth hormones (rBST). Menchie’s frozen yogurt contains live and active cultures and has received the Live and Active Culture (LAC) seal indicating its endorsement by the National Yogurt Association.
