Dunkin’ Donuts plans 46 new restaurants in California

Canton, Mass. — Dunkin’ Donuts has signed a multi-unit store development agreement with Sizzling Donuts, an existing franchise group, for 46 new restaurants throughout the greater Sacramento, Calif., metro area and the surrounding cities of Stockton, Modesto, Tracy, Manteca, Placerville and Davis.



Over the past year, Sizzling Donuts has signed multi-unit store development agreements to develop more than 60 new Dunkin’ Donuts restaurant throughout Northern Utah, Denver, Colorado and Texas. The group currently operates 17 Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants in these markets.



Since opening California for franchise development last year, the company has executed store development agreements for more than 150 new free-standing restaurants. Franchise opportunities remain available throughout Northern California and portions of Southern California. Over time, plans call for as many as 1,000 restaurants throughout the state.



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 lighting. The designs enhance the current restaurant appearance, environment and layout.



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 personal tastes and preferences, and best serves a specific restaurant size and location.
