TCBY Announces Expansion In S.C.

The Times and Democrat:

TCBY has announced its strategic expansion agreement in North Carolina and South Carolina.

TCBY formed a 10-year area developer agreement with Samuel Batt, the franchisee who piloted the company’s first self-serve store and the current owner of seven TCBY locations.

Batt agreed to open and/or franchise 23 TCBY self-serve locations in North Carolina and South Carolina within the next three years, with two stores open in Charlotte by the end of 2011. This expansion agreement represents significant growth in both states, adding to TCBY’s 29 stores in North Carolina and 14 stores in South Carolina.
