Dunkin’ Donuts is in the midst of a national expansion to increase its franchised locations in the U.S. Fueling this growth is today’s announcement that Madison, Wisconsin, is now open for franchise sales with plans to open about 32 new restaurants over the next several years. The company’s plans call for selling of franchises in Madison, as well as the surrounding counties of Dane, Rock, Columbia, Grant, Green, Iowa, Juneau, Layfayette, Marquette, Sauk, and Richland.

The company is actively seeking new franchisees to own and operate a minimum of five new restaurants in Madison and throughout the country in select markets to help direct the company’s future growth.

Building a network of stores also enables Dunkin’ Donuts to invest in a distribution model that ensures the products customers expect when visiting a Dunkin’ Donuts location.

According to Lynette McKee, CFE, vice president of franchising, Dunkin’ Brands Inc., “Dunkin’ Donuts will satisfy a growing demand in Madison for high-quality coffee and baked goods that are available all day. We look forward to being a vibrant part of the community and playing an important role in the daily lives of the people who live and work in Madison.”
