HERITAGE AND HISTORY

Who We Are

AROA Craft Yogurt was born from a mother’s interest in culinary innovations while providing healthy meals to her kids. Growing-up in that environment, Maria (Mafe) Vargas eventually took her mother Dalia’s yogurt recipes to create Yogurt Dalia, Venezuela’s premier local craft yogurt brand. Now a new mother herself, Mafe created AROA Craft Yogurt to bring innovative craft yogurt to South Florida.

Honoring Aroa

The name AROA honors our Venezuelan heritage and our belief to eat according to the logic of nature. AROA is a lush region in Venezuela with an abundance of tropical fruits and vegetables and it’s also a premier milk producing area.
