Healthy Fast Food, Inc. (OTCBB:HFFI) (OTCBB:HFFIW) (OTCBB:HFFIZ), announced today that through U-SWIRL International, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, it has acquired the worldwide rights to the U-Swirl Frozen YogurtSM concept.
With the acquisition complete, Healthy Fast Food is anticipating rolling out the concept, starting in the Las Vegas valley, with multiple corporate stores open by spring 2009 and with plans on having a franchise program in place by the end of 2008. 'We are very excited for the opportunity that U-Swirl brings to our company,' said Hank Cartwright, CEO of Healthy Fast Food Inc., 'the frozen yogurt segment is experiencing phenomenal growth and success on the West Coast and we believe that the U-Swirl concept will be embraced nationally due to its self-serve café setting and renewed interest in frozen yogurt as a smart desert alternative. Additionally, this concept helps diversify our company portfolio during these challenging economic times.'
In addition to the acquisition of U-Swirl, Healthy Fast Food is anticipating a busy 4thQ with two EVOS store openings, one HFFI corporate store in Las Vegas, NV and one additional franchise store in San Luis Obispo, California. HFFI recently received a store development extension from EVOS USA, with an extension to have five stores operational in Healthy Fast Food's territory by March 1st, 2009.
