Veterans are ideally suited to own a Menchie’s frozen yogurt franchise

At Menchie’s, we believe in showing our gratitude and support to all the men and women who serve and have served in our U.S. military. It is their dedication and sacrifices that keep us safe and protected, and at Menchie’s, we try to take every opportunity to say thank you. In its November issue, Entrepreneur magazine highlighted the top franchises for veterans; this is a list we are honored to be included in.

Our CEO, Amit Kleinberger, served a three-year stint in the armed forces, exiting his active tour of duty as a combat sergeant. His experiences in the army helped shape his leadership skills and taught him the importance of inspiring others. Knowing that the transition back into civilian life can be challenging and that the military provides many skills and values that translate into running a successful business, Amit makes it a priority to invite veterans to join our Menchie’s family.

This month, he joined Melissa Francis on her Fox Business show, Money with Melissa Francis, and shared why franchising can be the perfect solution to make the transition easier for our veterans. “In the military, we’re all part of a team and franchising is all about being a part of a team. It’s about a group of people that together try to carry out a mission and make the world a better place.” At Menchie’s we focus on our guests, community and making the world a better place so we know that veterans will feel right at home joining our family.

We are proud to be included in Entrepreneur magazine’s Top Franchises for Veterans, and we will continue to find ways to support our military. It was with this in mind that we established our Menchie’s Veteran’s Program. We offer a $10,000 credit toward any awarded franchise option for all active duty and honorably discharged military personnel.

To all veterans, for your courage and sacrifice, we salute you!
