Dunkin' Donuts is an international doughnut purveyor founded in 1950 in Quincy, Massachusetts by William Rosenberg. It claims to be the "world's largest coffee and baked goods chain," serving 2.7 million customers per day at 6200 stores globally [1]. This figure compares with the 10,800 stores of coffee chain Starbucks, whose baked goods are usually prepared out of shop. Most Dunkin' Donuts stores are franchises.
Dunkin' Donuts, along with Togo's and Baskin-Robbins, is owned by Dunkin' Brands Inc. (previously Allied Domecq Quick Service Restaurants, a part of Allied Domecq). Dunkin' Brands was owned by French beverage company, Pernod Ricard S.A. after it purchased Allied Domecq. They reached an agreement in December 2005 to sell the brand to a consortium of three private equity firms, Bain Capital Partners, the Carlyle Group and Thomas H. Lee Partners, with the deal expected to close in the first quarter of 2006.
In 1946, William Rosenberg founded Industrial Luncheon Services as a company to deliver meals and "coffee break snacks" to customers in the outer reaches of Boston, Massachusetts. His business saw success and Rosenberg soon followed by opening up his first coffee and donut shop called, "The Open Kettle." In 1950 he opened the first store known as "Dunkin' Donuts," which is still standing today at 543 Southern Artery in Quincy, Massachusetts. Grant Benson is the current Vice President of Dunkin' Donuts Eastern Development and works out of their global headquarters in Randolph, Massachusetts.
Since the late 1990s, Dunkin' Donuts has encouraged the distribution of franchises among Brazilian immigrant families. While the ethics of the company's motives have frequently been called into question, this has proven a lucrative decision for Dunkin' Donuts. However, numerous investigations are currently pending regarding the practice of hiring illegal immigrants as undocumented workers at these franchises.
