SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 14, 2016) - Reis & Irvy's Frozen Yogurt Debuts New Website and Brand Identity Robotic Franchise Concept Creates Brand Identity To Match Customer Experience
Fresh Healthy Vending International, Inc. (OTCQB: VEND), the nation's leading vending franchisor, today announced the debut of an interactive website for their newly launched franchise concept, Reis & Irvy's Frozen Yogurt. The fully-automated vending kiosk is the market's first frozen yogurt robot, dispensing nine different flavors of yogurt with a choice of six delicious toppings in 60 seconds or less. The recently designed site showcases the groundbreaking kiosks and marks the launch of a newly designed look for the brand that was launched this past April.
ReisandIrvys.com, which features an overview of the exciting new Reis & Irvy's franchise opportunity, was created with the intent to mimic and recreate the fun, excitement and interaction that the revolutionary kiosk creates with customers and within the locations in which it is placed.
Fresh Healthy Vending, International, Inc., negotiated exclusive rights to distribute the product domestically earlier this year. With that move, the company felt that the time was right to revamp and reposition the identity of the brand. Adapting it to a new and ever-changing market, but also communicating the experience and interaction of the product. The new website itself clearly showcases that very experience.
"The design of this particular website and the overall look and feel of the brand itself were created strategically and by design with the sole intention of communicating the experience of how we think frozen yogurt should be," says Paul Schmidt, Chief Marketing Officer for Reis & Irvy's. "Customers and locations alike are drawn to these machines because of the excitement and fun they generate. We wanted the website and all brand communication vehicles moving forward, to mimic and communicate that same exact feeling. A fully interactive, engaging and exciting energy that defines what we like to call, the future of frozen yogurt."
With the April launch well under way, that experience seems to be resonating within the franchise market, with interest and demand for the ground-breaking machines growing and the benefits speaking to audiences everywhere. The Reis & Irvy's "FroYo Kiosk" is the first fully-automated frozen yogurt robot to the market. The automated kiosk is fully enclosed, eliminating the possibility of spillage and drastically improving food safety conditions. The FroYo Kiosk serves up nine flavors and a choice of six delicious toppings, allowing dozens of possible combinations, and its interactive, robotic design makes it a visual spectacle for consumers of all ages. The touch screen ordering process accepts all major debit and credit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Wallet.
With a new identity, demand and interest growing daily and a core focus on changing the way potential franchisees and consumers experience frozen yogurt, the company believes Reis and Irvy's is poised for success.
"We have a strong solid brand that delivers a unique and exciting customer experience," Schmidt added. "People are going to recognize, love and remember Reis and Irvy's as the company that changed the future of frozen yogurt."
