Cold Stone Creamery plans to make its debut in Kenya through a 10-year master franchise agreement with Om Nom Nom Mauritius Ltd. There are seven stores scheduled to open throughout the next five years, with the first planned for Nairobi in late September.

"Om Nom Nom has a great understanding of the Kenyan market as their experience in the food and beverage industry is vast," Eddy Jimenez, SVP at parent company Kahala Brands, said in a news release. "Om Nom Nom already conducts business in the Nairobi market and their in-market knowledge is priceless. Cold Stone Creamery will be the first of its kind in the Kenya market – we are extremely excited about expanding into East Africa."
