Orange Leaf will be opening 18 new frozen yogurt stores, including one in Burlington, this year in Massachusetts.

“As a company, we cannot be more excited to expand our footprint in Massachusetts as one of the highest-demand markets for frozen desserts,” said Orange Leaf CEO Reese Travis in a press statement. “Massachusetts, along with the northeast as a whole, is one of Orange Leaf’s fastest developing areas. Our low start-up cost and scalable business model has attracted many eager franchisees in the region who are excited to grow our brand.”

The new Burlington location will be at 5 Center Street, next door to Gigi's Roast Beef and Pizza. Call to Orange Leaf for an opening date have not been returned. However, renovation work has already begun and signs on the store front say the frozen yogurt place is "coming soon." 

The Oklahoma-based frozen yogurt chain will have 41 stores in Massachusetts once the new ones are operational, according to a Boston Globe report. Some area locations expected to open this year include Burlington, Winchester, Reading and Woburn.
