Summit Realty Partners to open Orange Leaf
Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt, one of the fastest-growing self-serve frozen dessert franchises, plans to open a store early next year in the new Brickyard Square Shopping Center located at the intersection of NH 101 and NH 125.
Summit Realty Partners and Waterstone Retail announced the recent lease signing, and are pleased that Orange Leaf will be joining retail stores like Market Basket, O'Neil Cinema's, The Paper Store, Marshalls and Famous Footwear in the shopping center.
Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt will utilize the leased space as their popular self-serve dessert concept and fill a void at the shopping center and in the community for a frozen yogurt store.
Chris McMahon of Summit Realty Partners represented Orange Leaf in securing a lease for this location, and the store plans to open early 2013.
Brickyard Square is a 270,000 s/f regional shopping center. Brickyard Square is owned and managed by Needham, Mass.-based Waterstone Retail.
