Krispy Kreme franchise

Krispy Kreme has turned the habit of eating doughnuts with coffee into its biggest advantage. The small doughnut shop has transformed itself into becoming a worldwide leader in its industry. Today, we are recognized as the leading specialty retailer of premium quality doughnuts and coffee.

Over the years, we have evolved into a company that is more than just making doughnuts and coffee. Our focus is to remain on top by using an innovative new product platform. It is our mission to help bring pleasure to our customers by sharing the joy Krispy Kreme is known for. Our Original Glazed Donut has remained as our signature product then and now.

The Privilege of Being A Franchisee

Krispy Kreme considers its franchisees as its partners in global success. You too can join our growing family as one of our franchisees. As a franchisee, you will get to know about the company’s trade secret that has made it as one of the leading names in its industry. More importantly, you will be part of the growth of our iconic brand as we continue to reach more customers.

Managing a store is not easy but as family, we will provide you with the necessary training needed to achieve success. We will train you on all the aspects of operating a store such as business strategy, market planning, site selection, store design, retail operations, crew member training, hospitality, to name just a few. The training will be held at a Krispy Kreme training store or international market that is in close geographical proximity to the franchisee. You will also be attending a one-week training program before opening your first store. The general and store manager will be required to complete 12 weeks of training prior to the opening of their store. But training does not stop when the store has been opened. You will still receive ongoing support through in-market training classes as well.

We are on the lookout for individuals who can promote and uphold the Krispy Kreme brand. If you have a proven track record in the restaurant and retail industry as an owner or operator, then you are the candidate we are looking for. We are looking for someone who can leverage shared services of existing food service operations for start-up efficiencies. As a franchisee, you will be required to develop a minimum of 10 stores and put up a minimum investment of £1,500,000. The key to success will also lie on your entrepreneurial spirit and unwavering commitment to customer service.

Our story began in July 1937 when a young man named Vernon Rudolph rented a small warehouse in Winston Salem, North Carolina, so he could make doughnuts which he sold to groceries. The tempting aroma of their doughnuts made the people want to try it, and so it began. In 2003, our first UK store opened at the Harrods Department Store.
