Dunkin' Donuts' development in Louisville and the recent selling out of surrounding markets, including Lexington, Indianapolis, and Bowling Green, is part of a steady and strategic national growth strategy, which includes expanding in existing markets while entering new cities throughout the country. The company is actively seeking new franchisees to own and operate a minimum of five new restaurants in Louisville.
Building a network of stores enables Dunkin' Donuts to invest in a distribution model that ensures consistent, high-quality products that customers expect when visiting a Dunkin' Donuts location. In an effort to keep the brand fresh and competitive, Dunkin' Donuts offers franchisees a variety of designs and venues, including free-standing stores, sites within shopping centers, and convenience stores and other retail environments.
"To fulfill our national expansion goals, Dunkin' Donuts is looking for developers with a strong organization and the ability to manage multiple restaurants effectively and successfully in the Kentucky markets," says Lynette McKee, CFE, vice president of Franchising, Dunkin' Brands Inc.
