Two years after Farrah Abraham cut the ribbon on her Froco yogurt shop, the Texas-based business has shuttered.
Starcasm broke the story of the shop’s closing after one of the site’s writers visited the Lakeway, Texas, location and found the store shut down.
“Not only was the business closed, but much of the interior elements had been dismantled and packed up,” Starcasm reported, adding that the Froco logo had even been scrapped off the business’ door.
Starcasm posted photos from inside the yogurt shop (which, in its hey-day was seen frequently on ‘Teen Mom OG’). The shop’s tables and chairs were stacked up, next to boxes and a sad trashbag full of stuffed Cobas, the shop’s “Poppin’ Boba” mascot.
“We spoke with another tenant who was informed by the [building’s] property owner that the Froco space would be available at the beginning of August,” Starcasm reported. “We were also told that there was a camera crew filming late last week, but given that Farrah is no longer a part of ‘Teen Mom OG,’ it’s unclear just who was filming or why.”
It has since been discovered that Farrah was likely filming footage that will be used in her 20-video “Master Class on Entrepreneurship” class, which she announced earlier this week.
Farrah’s father, Michael Abraham, (sort of) confirmed the closing of the store to Starcasm, stating that Farrah is now focusing on getting her yogurt into grocery stores… or something.
“All is good in Froco land,” Michael (who, as you may remember, often got stuck wearing the Coba de Boba Froco mascot costume) told the site. “Farrah’s lease expired and Farrah is taking her Froco brand to the next level: into grocery store food chains and other select stores. This has been in the works for a while, along with a few other business ideas coming out.”
“Whatever…Michael!”
After Michael, spoke to the media, Froco updated it’s Instagram account to reflect the changes. Although the Froco social media accounts did not specifically state that the brick-and-mortar shop is closed, it did indicate that the company is moving in a different direction.
“Coba is on to his next project,” a caption read. “Frozen yogurt in stores! We’re excited! Less stops!”

During its two years in business, Froco experienced various problems. In 2016, the shop’s Yelp page was overrun with negative reviews, with some Yelpers stating that they didn’t feel it was appropriate for someone who had starred in adult films to run a family-friendly establishment.
Later that year, viewers watched as Farrah’s problems with Froco employees played out on an episode of ‘Teen Mom OG.’
In 2017, Farrah was (hilariously) caught writing the shop a positive review (and congratulating herself for being an awesome owner…as you do) on Google.
Farrah has yet to actually address the shop’s closing publicly. However, rumors have been floating around for months that the former ‘Teen Mom OG’ star is experiencing money problems. Farrah & Co. have denied that there is any truth to the rumors, however.
Farrah’s other businesses in Lakeway, Furnished By Farrah and Sophia Laurent Children’s Boutique, are still open.
RIP, Froco! We hardly knew ye….
In memory of Froco, watch this video of Farrah forcing her dad to wear the Froco Coba de Boba mascot costume.
UPDATE! In an Instagram post on Thursday, Farrah confirmed that Froco has closed its doors. In the caption of a photo of her and her daughter Sophia at Froco’s 2016 opening, Farrah used “Farrah Speak” to congratulate herself on a job well done.
“#TBT what an amazing Throw Back Thursday! My first company dream brought to life, after first location fail to second location success, creating a mascot in factories, bringing employment to this city, growing the community, sponsoring sports teams, cancer events, bringing thousands of families together. As a public figure I made it possible and it has now taken my passion to the next level so I thank the supporters, the customers& the haters as we move from brick and mortar to large distribution on my proven company concept! It’s been a learning experience I’ll treasure the rest of my life. I look forward to sharing more on my MASTER CLASS THIS JULY & BUSINESS BOOK ON IT’S WAY”

God bless her she tried! if she ran a Business like a he rides cock it would be kicking goals fuck what did she expect it’s frozen yoghurt can’t just add a cute mascot and think it’s gonna be $1 million franchise God bless her 4 trying ?❤️
BTW her other 2 businesses are also closed
She probably couldn’t find anyone willing to put up with her sh** to work there.
I cannot imagine anyone wanting slurp anything white and creamy that had anything to do with Back Door Farrah.
One backdoor closes for Farrah and another one will open. Are escorts considered entrepreneurs?
That picture looks like a turd in a cup.
I have several small things to say:
1) LOL
2) Farrah says Coba the Boba is supposed to be a passionfruit… has she ever seen a damn passionfruit?! I had no idea it was even meant to be a fruit, let alone a passionfruit.
3) The copy on that “Get Froco in Your Store” ad is atrocious but slightly too coherent for Farrah to have written it herself, which gets me to wondering where she finds people as stupid as she is to do a job almost as inadequately as she would have done herself. I mean seriously, what minimum wage grocery store employee is going to be such a fan of Backdoor Teen Mom’s crappy ice cream that they will appeal to their manager to stock it? The idea of this ad being aimed at low level employees with no say on anything strikes me as seriously stupid.
4) How is the top celebrity in our nation who plans to teach others to be an entrepreneur using a damn gmail account for work related correspondence? You’d think of her vast fortune, she would invest a few hundred dollars on a properly built website with its own email.
Re: 3) I was so confused what “less stops” was supposed to mean! Like, when you’re out and about and NEED Froco but you don’t want to make extra stops? Maybe “fewer stops” would be more clear, but, they had to make it so Farrah would understand it….ugh.
Reading that I needed to check out the website. Have you read the page about opening a Franchise? Holy cow – I lost count of all the typos and poor grammar. I had to reread a few of the sentences to figure out what she was actually trying to say. I’m pretty sure she wrote that herself and eeeesh.
I regret to admit I spent way too much of my precious life revisiting the Froco website and it was comedy gold. That stuff, she definitely wrote herself. Incoherent doesn’t even begin to describe it!
The franchise page is good stuff, but my all time fave was the Farrahspeak word salad on the Froco website before the shop opened a few years ago where it kept referring to “the owner”. If memory serves me correctly it might have been where “the owner” referred to herself as a “top female celebrity in the nation” – I think that’s a commenter’s handle here so maybe they can confirm.
It is on the “Job Opportunities” page – I mean, if you’re going to work there, you need to know that you are walking into a den of greatness.
The Ashley helpfully described for horror for us all: http://www.theashleysrealityroundup.com/2016/09/17/teen-mom-farrah-abrahams-yogurt-shop-getting-mixed-reviews-adult-industry-past-a-factor/
Thanks for sharing – Farrahspeak word salad gold.
The universe tends to unfold as it should! I’m sure in a few years she’ll be a washed up has been, no money and still no one willing to be in a relationship with her.
Oh Michael. Your daughter failed. I bet she won’t get it in stores too. Oh, you delusional nitwits. (both of you)
Oh man, sign me up for that “Master Class on Entrepreneurship”!! LMAO!
I was considering opening a Froco franchise which she was advertising at one point, but I guess I’ll have to take the class instead.
It’s far wiser to invest your money in a good education, Hustlah. I believe a qualification from Froco University will send you on your way to success – I mean, what employer could resist such a prestigious academic achievement? Christ, I wish I was making this shit up!
Funny how Farrah trashed Drita D’Avanzo of Mob Wives last week, calling her a washed up has-been with no money.
Last I heard, Drita’s Lady Boss Makeup and Skin Care Studio in Staten Island, NY was still going strong —and even offering jobs according to her website.
Stay tuned, Farrah.
More “karma” to come, I’m sure.
It’s like how closeted Republicans/fundamentalist Christian/Derrick Duggar types always publicly despise and denounce out gay people. Thinly veiled jealousy.
Your fro-yo biz took a dump, eh? If the pic above has any weight, I can see why. That literally looks like shit in a cup….and Farrugh is holding it, so…perf!!
It has nothing to do with being busy. She is a total cunt who people hate with a passion. I would not support a company from a person who treats other human beings that way. I hope her other companies fail very soon maybe it will humble her, but most likely will just make her into a bigger cunt. Thank god she is a giant slut who will have sex on camera for money. Once she gets a little older and more plastic looking she will fail at that also. I predict she will be on some ex reality star show within 5 years. Sophia will have stopped speaking to her by then and will be as bad of a person as Farrah. I still think she will be more successful then Jenelle and David though
That episode where Farrah was wearing her business-lady blazer and told her employee they needed to “Severance their relationship” *never forget* is basically what: dignity, proper grammar, self-respect, original body parts, an education above seventh grade level, self esteem and any prospects of having a normal, healthy relationship said to her long ago . Yet the real question remains; did Michael get to keep the costume as severance pay.
Another gem, coryandtrevor. Please never stop posting ??
Thanks EB! Hope you enjoyed your holiday! 🙂
Same to you!! Hope you had some time off work ☺

No, a cunt would have warmth and depth.
Doesn’t copa de boba translate to lying fool?
Why would anyone go to a place with a mascot with that name?
Froclosed!
A *high five* to that nice young girl that Farrah ripped apart and fired back when the store first opened.
The only thing this loser will ever be successful at is being a live blow up doll.
I knew that would happen. The reviews were awful!
Is she planning on teaching people how to fail at being an entrepreneur?
Farrah is not a people person, it won’t be very surprising if her other two businesses close this year. Good thing she still has the adult entertainment industry to fall back on.
Where she only has to be a penis person! Ha ha ha!
Color me shocked.
This is what happens when you claim to be “worth 6 million dollars”, but have to borrow money against an existing business, to open another, then spend frivolously on stupid shit. She did that, repeatedly, and that’s why she’s losing money. Forget all the other shit people hate, or love to hate, about Farrah, her business acumen is nonexistent. It’s been apparent in all of her business ventures since day one, aside from her “adult” business, which let’s face it, isn’t a difficult industry to get into, lol.
Looks like a poop emoji in the top pic. I’ll let you decide which half of the picture it is on.
The place always looked empty on pictures. Fail.
A redditor visited her stores a while ago. Furnished was closed, the children’s boutique was open. The lady that worked there said she was the only person working for both stores. She would open one of the stores every day.
Again, the till was gathering dust there by lack of sales.
The rumor is that the lease for those stores just ends later, but it won’t be long.
How will she explain that?
She’ll say what she always says – she closed them to make time for her next bigger and better business ventures that are in the works and are amazing and huge and yadda yadda yadda. Yeah right. She has ZERO idea how to run even one little shop. All she did was take a bunch of her porn money and buy all the crap, then pay others to run the businesses, while treating them like crap. They’re all going to fail. But no worries, she’s in Dubai trying to nail down a sugar daddy and hopefully not put Sophia in danger while she’s at it.
Don’t they realize that all frozen yogurt shops are the same. NOTHING was special about Farrah’s. They have the same flavors, same machines and toppings along with same weight scale to pay. Why would buy that at a store?! The toppings would taste awful that way.
I’ve been telling y’all that this was going to happen.
Of course, just because they’re all the same doesn’t mean they can’t be profitable, if you’ve got a good location. The thing is, running a small business, especially a new small business, is an incredible amount of work, and Farrah is just too busy being a celebrity to put in 60 hour weeks at a day job.
