Four more Pinkberry stores are set to open in the next few weeks in the Sacramento region. The area's first Pinkberry shops opened April 9 in the Howe 'Bout Arden shopping center and on April 29 in Laguna.

The Citrus Heights store at 5855 Sunrise Boulevard opens Friday, followed by the Loehmann's Plaza store on July 16 (2441 Fair Oaks Boulevard) and a Davis store at 500 1st Street July 30, a news release states. A Folsom store is in the works, but an opening date and address have not yet been announced.

Pinkberry has been well-received in the Sacramento area, Mikki Stevens, the director of operations for the Sacramento stores.

"Our sales are increasing on a weekly basis as well as our fan base," she said.

Pinkberry, a tart frozen yogurt chain that grew wildly popular after its West Hollywood launch in 2005, is known for using quality ingredients and toppings.

Sacramento stores feature Pinkberry's signature original flavor, as well as pomegranate, coconut, chocolate, mango. A summer flavor, watermelon, is being offered through early August. The stores offer the watermelon flavor at 50 percent off during happy hour, from 5 to 7 p.m. daily.

Tariq Munir, a local businessman, owns the six local Pinkberry franchises.

What You Should Know About Comments on Sacbee.com

Sacbee.com is happy to provide a forum for reader interaction, discussion, feedback and reaction to our stories. However, we reserve the right to delete inappropriate comments or ban users who can't play nice. (See our full terms of service here.)

Here are some rules of the road:

• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "report abuse" button to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.

• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.

• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.

• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand. If you want to discuss an issue with a specific user, click on his profile name and send him a direct message.

• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.

• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.

• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.

• Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.

You should also know that The Sacramento Bee does not screen comments before they are posted. You are more likely to see inappropriate comments before our staff does, so we ask that you click the "report abuse" button to submit those comments for moderator review. You also may notify us via email at feedback@sacbee.com. Note the headline on which the comment is made and tell us the profile name of the user who made the comment. Remember, comment moderation is subjective. You may find some material objectionable that we won't and vice versa.

If you submit a comment, the user name of your account will appear along with it. Users cannot remove their own comments once they have submitted them, but you may ask our staff to retract one of your comments by sending an email to feedback@sacbee.com. Again, make sure you note the headline on which the comment is made and tell us your profile name.
