Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt, an Arizona-based self-serve frozen yogurt franchise, has announced the opening of its second Indiana location, opening soon in Fort Wayne.  Warsaw has been enjoying frozen yogurt since February of 2013 when Deron Manwaring and his wife, Ana, opened Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt just north of town on SR 15. Now, the Manwaring’s are excited to announce to their Warsaw customers the opening of another Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt location in the Orchard Crossing Shopping Center (near Target) near Jefferson Pointe in Fort Wayne.

From the outset the Manwaring’s plan has been to open several Zoyo locations in the surrounding area. Deron recently became aware of an existing frozen yogurt outlet in Fort Wayne that was for sale. Sisters Angie Zimske and Amy Stephens have been successfully operating Spoonz Fro Yo for years but recently made the decision to get out of the business in order to spend more time with their families. Deron jumped on the opportunity to acquire the business and plans to commence a remodeling project in the Spoonz Fro Yo location at the end of December and, once renovations are complete, reopen the store as a Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt in early February.

Zoyo quickly become a Warsaw favorite with customers hanging out to visit with one another using the free wi-fi in the spacious dining area or enjoying the great weather on the outside patio. “Now, when our Warsaw friends are shopping in Fort Wayne, they can enjoy the same delicious selections and great service they have come to expect from Zoyo without having to wait until they get home,” Deron explained.

“Zoyo delivers an experience unlike any other frozen yogurt shop,” said Robert Schiller, chief executive officer of Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt. “We serve the highest quality ingredients and toppings, and provide a relaxed atmosphere that encourages friends and families to mingle and unwind. In every market, our goal is to be an evening ritual for the community and we couldn’t be more excited to begin serving the Fort Wayne community in 2015.”

The new Zoyo shop is located at 1034 S. Thomas Rd. To learn more about Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt or to inquire about franchise opportunities, please visit zoyogurt.com.
