List of Frozen Yogurt Companies

Frozen yogurt, often referred to as "froyo" or "frogurt," is a popular frozen dessert made with yogurt and sometimes other dairy products. It varies from slightly to much more tart than ice cream, as well as being lower in fat due to the use of milk instead of cream. The rise of frozen yogurt in the 1970s and its resurgence in the 2000s can be attributed to consumers' desire for healthier alternatives to traditional desserts. This article provides a list of notable frozen yogurt companies that have contributed to the global popularity of this dessert.
