Broyles Hospitality, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GPM Investments, LLC, a rapidly growing leader in the U.S. convenience store industry, unveiled its third Next Generation Dunkin’, which is the company’s 10th Dunkin’ franchise.  The Dunkin’ is located in Kingsport, TN adjacent to a Roadrunner Markets convenience store, which is operated by another subsidiary of GPM.

This location, which officially opens November 18, 2020, showcases Dunkin’ Brand’s U.S. store of the future that includes a modern look with special interior design that incorporates a brighter color palate, open layout and natural light to create an approachable, positive and energetic environment. The store will also offer drive-thru access as well as delivery for quick convenient service for customers on the go and at home and feature Dunkin’s innovative eight-tap system for quick service of all signature cold beverages. The store itself will be paired alongside a Roadrunner Markets convenience store and Subway restaurant providing customers an array of offerings in one convenient location.

“GPM is always interested in developing the right franchising partnerships for our customers in the locations where they want them most, which is exactly what this – our 10th Dunkin’ location does,” says Arie Kotler, President & CEO of GPM.  “Our goal is to continue to bring the best franchises to prime locations and as we work to elevate the customer experience in each of our stores across the country.”

Broyles Hospitality is slated to add two additional Dunkin’ locations in 2021. GPM operates 73 franchised restaurants across its portfolio of stores and continues to seek out opportunities to add partners in key stores and markets.

“We are incredibly proud of our local Franchisee network, Broyles Hospitality, and the opening of our newest next generation concept Dunkin’ restaurant in the Tri Cities,” says Katie Gaston, Field Marketing Manager, Dunkin. “Our teams are excited to continue to bring guests a convenient, safe and on-the-go experience to keep them running on America’s favorite coffee and donuts.”
