History

Early History

The first FrivoloCo Chocolates store at Midcity

FrivoloCo's first store was opened in Midcity, TAY, on 24 June 2021. At the time, the menu consisted of various coffees and hot chocolate drinks.

The second FrivoloCo store opened in Westover Island, KR on 30 June 2021, on top of the Squid Grill. This location was to become the new headquarters, and is still open in its original form.

Rapid Expansion

During much of late 2021 and early 2022, FrivoloCo Chocolates saw rapid expansion, opening in most cities across bnbmc. In mid 2022, FrivoloCo Chocolates renovated its Midcity location, and moved its headquarters there.

Foray into office leasing

Just after FrivoloCo moved its headquarters to Midcity, a multi-storey building in Anatoli City was slated for construction. It would have approximately 13 floors, with the two lowest floors being a restaurant location, and the higher floors being rentable office space. Construction was completed in mid 2022, and FrivoloCo Chocolates started renting office space in Anatoli City.

Expansion strategy

FrivoloCo locations are simple, with basic features being added depending on the size of the location. This strategy allows FrivoloCo Chocolates to expand rapidly, as construction of new restaurants is very fast.

Controversy

Parking Space Dispute at Okaerinasaimase Goshunjinsama! Inkytown

At the Inkytown branch of FrivoloCo Chocolates, there was a dispute over parking spaces, with FrivoloCo patrons occupying the spots adjacent to the venue, next to Okaerinasaimase Goshunjinsama! leading to a series of events and reactions.

The use of these parking spaces by FrivoloCo guests created a stir within Okaerinasaimase Goshunjinsama! itself, resulting in a series of advertising campaigns outside the establishment. Staff members also issued warnings, threatening to tow away vehicles parked in these spots if their owners were not patrons of Okaerinasaimase Goshunjinsama!

These parking spaces were believed to be under the ownership of the Inkytown government, categorising them as public parking locations. However, before a definitive resolution could be reached, the Okaerinasaimase Goshunjinsama! location was compelled to close due to allegations of human rights violations. Regrettably, the establishment remains closed to this day.

Aggressive advertising at SQTR Bingocity

FrivoloCo Bingocity is adjacent to the local SQTR. In 2021, the wall behind the SQTR was made from glass, allowing FrivoloCo staff to post advertising targeting SQTR patrons, encouraging them to purchase items at FrivoloCo Chocolates. Additionally, musical platters were installed on the wall, causing difficulty in replacement of the wall. Eventually, the SQTR Management Authority replaced the back wall of the SQTR with chiselled quartz, prompting FrivoloCo to retaliate by purchasing an adjacent plot, which the SQTR tracks run through, and installing an advertisement board targeting incoming passengers. The advertisement board remains on the plot until this day.

Trivia

• It was called FrivoloCo because Victor and some b&B members were playing Gartic Phone, and at some point FrivoloCo appeared. It eventually inspired Victor to name FrivoloCo after that.
• FrivoloCo used to be headquartered in Westover Island, KR.
