History
In 1999, Pedro Espinosa left his job at British Petroleum to continue his family's business tradition in the world of gastronomy and opened the first Llaollao outlet. A year later, he expanded the business based on the franchising model. Currently, the company that incorporates healthy values (a medium-sized tub contains 46% of the Calcium Recommended Daily Allowance) and a fresh image, is a leader among its competitors. By July 2015, Llaollao had generated a total of 1,000 jobs during the five years that have passed since it launched its franchise model to the market. Beginning 2016, Llaollao will commence a 70 outlet expansion in Japan.
On 7 December 2017, D+1 terminated its master franchisee with llaollao Singapore and rebranded its 29 stores to another frozen yogurt brand named Yole. llaollao Singapore later released a statement on Facebook stating that "we are far from finished in Singapore" and announced it's intent to return to the Singapore market.

Llaollao's signature offering is the Sanum which is essentially a yogurt parfait with fresh fruits of choice, granola or crushed biscuits drizzled with sauce. In July 2015, Llaollao enlarged its menu and included products allowed for gluten intolerants such as green apple and passion fruit sauces as well as chocolate and candied almonds crunches. Llaollao also utilises biodegradable cups and napkins made out of recycled materials in their effort to contribute to improving the environment.
