The World's First Frozen Yogurt Franchise Celebrates Its Franchiees' Second Store in Northwest Texas FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
**IRVING, Texas (April 16, 2018) – TCBY, **The Country’s Best Yogurt, the world’s first frozen yogurt brand, announced today the launch of its latest location in Irving, Texas at the Toyota Music Factory complex in Irving.

Husband and wife duo Alkesh and Tina Jariwala opened their first *TCBY* location in Coppell three years ago and are excited to open their second store at Irving's new entertainment hub.

With these memories in mind, the pair thought *TCBY* was the perfect business to open in their community and ventured into franchising. With one location under their belt, Alkesh and Tina look forward to help Irving locals make memories of their own over a cup of* TCBY *frozen yogurt.
