Llagurt
Glòria Salomó estaba estudiando derivados en Chicago (EEUU) cuando descubrió un negocio que ya no se pudo quitar de la cabeza. Era un establecimiento de venta de yogures helados artesanales que registraba diariamente largas colas y que consideró que podía triunfar en Catalunya. Rápidamente llamó a su amiga de la infancia, Ingrid Rahola, con la que siempre quiso montar un negocio. Ambas, con 27 años y estudios de Empresariales y Administración y Dirección de Empresas, se pusieron a trabajar en el proyecto y en octubre de 2010 crearon Llagurt con una inversión de 70.000 euros. Su idea inicial era regentar una yogurtería en el centro de Girona, pero la buena acogida del público hizo que el negocio creciera rápidamente. Así, sólo un año y medio después, Llagurt ya cuenta con diez establecimientos en las comarcas de Girona y Barcelona y ha trazado un plan para alcanzar los treinta puntos de venta en 2013.
