The CherryBerry frozen yogurt franchise owner for Texas has apparently closed four stores in the past six months.

(UnhappyFranchisee.Com)According to Corporation Wiki, John J. Shutt & Travis R. Phillips of Phillips & Shutt Holdings L.L.C. own the CherryBerry franchises in Clear Lake (Webster), Pasadena, Tomball, and Conroe, Texas.

The Facebook pages of all four locations indicate that they cased operations an average of 16 months after opening.

Franchisees Shutt & Phillips appear to still have operating CherryBerry locations in Lake Jackson, Pearland and Victoria, Texas.

Despite the closures and evidence that the self-serve frozen yogurt market is saturated, Beautiful Brands (BBI) is aggressively selling both CherryBerry franchises and Freshberry franchises as a great business opportunity.

Recently, David Rutkauskas, BBI founder and CEO stated “our brands are performing beautifully and experiencing explosive growth every day.”
