Dunkin’ Donuts not cutting back on store expansion

Dunkin’ Donuts announced new locations as it works towards its goal of opening 410 to 440 net new restaurants in 2015.



The chain announced multi-unit store development agreements totaling 24 new restaurants over the next several years in Minnesota with two franchise groups, Kod Kod Enterprises, LLC, and existing franchise group, VANTive Group.



"We are excited to enter new areas throughout Minnesota, and know these new and existing partners will strive to bring guests in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area the coffee and donuts that have kept America running for over 65 years," said Grant Benson, CFE, VP of global franchise and business development, Dunkin' Brands.



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.
