Donut King

We operate Donut King stores and kiosks that sell donuts, specialty donuts, hot dogs, cinnamon toast, cold and hot beverages, specialty roasted espresso coffee, and selected accessories and gifts. Our stores are designed for customers looking for a quick-service stop for baked goods, coffee, and snack items throughout the day. We typically operate in leased locations such as suburban lifestyle centers, strip centers, malls, and, in some cases, street-front sites, while kiosks are used in places like office buildings and other public buildings where a full store is not practical. Each location follows a standardized format, layout, equipment set, and operating system so customers get a consistent experience. We focus on providing an easy-to-run retail food service model centered on specialty donuts and coffee.
