underscores our direction to expand on the success story of TBS by
partnering up with promising brands and dedicated teams. We are
delighted to have TFFL as our companions in this exciting journey
and we look forward to our cooperation in growing the Group

wider target market, while remaining true to the core values of our
brand. We take pride in creating simple all American classic desserts
that we’ve developed throughout the years, one that our customers
recognize and remain loyal to.”
