As one of the fastest growing quick service restaurant (QSR)
brands based on unit growth, Dunkin' Donuts continues to
strategically expand in contiguous markets across the country with
a long-term goal of having more than 15,000 Dunkin' Donuts
restaurants in the United States
alone. To help fuel growth in Minnesota, special development incentives are
available, which include reduced royalty fees for three years and
up to $10,000 in local store
marketing for stores that meet certain goals*.
"Dunkin' Donuts is looking for qualified candidates with
foodservice, operations and real estate experience to join our team
and grow the brand in Minneapolis
and Mankato," said Grant Benson, CFE, vice president of global
franchising and business development, Dunkin' Brands. "By joining
our team, franchisees become part of a nationally established brand
that has been in existence for over 60 years, has 95 percent brand
recognition in the U.S., a multi-million dollar national
advertising fund, world-class training and ongoing support, among
many other benefits."
In an effort to keep the brand fresh and
competitive, Dunkin' Donuts offers flexible concepts for any
real estate format including free-standing restaurants, end caps,
in-line sites, gas and convenience, travel plazas, universities, as
well as other retail environments.
Dunkin' Donuts' new look includes four distinct restaurant
design options for franchisees, each featuring variations in
layout, color schemes, graphics, textures, furniture and/or
lighting. The designs enhance the current restaurant appearance,
environment and layout to serve people all day long. Unlike other
quick-service restaurants, Dunkin' Donuts allows franchisees to
select individual elements from any of the four options, creating a
restaurant design that reflects their personal tastes and
preferences, and best serves their specific restaurant size and
location.
Since the 1950s, Dunkin' Donuts has been a daily ritual for
millions of people and has offered guests delicious food, beverages
and friendly service at a great value. Dunkin' Donuts offerings
include hot and iced coffee, flavored coffees, lattes, Dunkin'
Donuts K-Cup® Packs, Coolatta® frozen drinks, donuts, muffins,
bagels, breakfast and bakery sandwiches, and a DDSMART® menu
featuring better-for-you items.
