    Decision Making and Response Feedback

    Krispy Kreme is a relatively small doughnut seller. It has only 295 stores while Dunkin Donuts has over 3,600 outlets in the United States and Canada. In spite of its size, Krispy Kreme has been described by many as “the hottest brand in America.” The company’s success in an environment which has made success difficult for many food operations is due in large part to the long-term vision of its top management and its establishment and achievement of S.M.A.R.T. goals. The company originated in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in the mid-1930s when Vernon Rudolph bought a secret recipe for yeast doughnuts from a French pastry cook. Rudolph ran the company until he died in 1973 without naming a successor, which caused the company problems for the next decade.…

    Bus 475 Business Model And Strategic Plan Part 2

    Their competitors are their largest weakness. Dunkin’ Donuts doesn’t spend much on their advertising and marketing as their competition does. The increasing cost of coffee beans and raw materials is also a weakness as their product pricing is already considered expensive (Altmann, 2007). Current trends pose as another weakness for them. As the trend for healthy living continues it’s important for them to stay current and introduce new products to meet those new consumers’ needs and wants (Altmann, 2007). Another weakness Dunkin Donuts faces are the legal and regulatory forces and trends that harbor setbacks for the company. Dunkin donuts stores are franchised out and it’s up to each individual stores franchisee owner to make sure they follow all of the rules, regulations and requirements set for the store. The most common issue among franchises is related to failed payments. Such as the case in Richmond, Virginia in 2013 when 7 stores were temporarily closed because they failed to pay for franchise and advertising fees (Blackwell,…

    Krispy Kream

    Krispy Kreme (KKD) has achieved spectacular growth in the last few years using an area developer model to expand geographically. This case examines the factors that have driven its growth and their sustainability in the coming two years. Students are provided with forecasts made by financial analysts at CIBC. They are then asked to identify and evaluate the assumptions underlying these earnings forecasts. Since the CIBC report does not provide a forecasted balance sheet for KKD, the case can be used to let students learn how to build a forecasted balance sheet. Finally, the case can be used to discuss potential conflicts of interest between analysts and investors that might lead analysts to over-sell a growth firm such as KKD.…

    3. It can be indicated that, from the competition prospective of KKD, the doughnut industry was highly fragmented.

What is more, there are large demands of donuts as donuts is one of the most popular snacks for many years.…

    SWOT Analysis of Dunkin’ Donuts: Betting Dollars on Donuts

    The Porters’ Five analysis reveals that Dunkin Donuts is in direct competition with Starbucks. Some 400 billion cups of coffee are consumed every year, and Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks are competing for the Coffeehouse storefront. While Starbucks drives tastes for upscale coffee, Dunkin Donuts is, “betting dollars to donuts,” that consumers nationwide will embrace its reputation for value and simplicity. With Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts being so aggressive there are not many competitors who have enough resources to compete in the coffeehouse marketplace. When places like McDonalds started offering Coffee along with their breakfast menus, Dunkin Donuts was faced with the challenge of the morning meal market, they made an update and added to their donuts, with bagels and croissant-based breakfast sandwiches, and an oven toasted line including flatbread sandwiches and pizzas. They have also begun shifting their donut production from individual stores into centralized facilities that have the ability to serve up to 100 stores, giving them the ability to influence price and production. Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts both have their own customer base, each having unique items. Dunkin Donuts focuses on offering simple and straightforward morning snacks, which has given them the competitive advantage of distinction as the “anti-Starbucks- earnest and without pretense,”…

    Promotion Mix: Personal Selling, Product and Sales Promotion

    Krispy Kreme obtains excellent public relations when a store opens. “An Austin, Texas store opening was covered live by five TV crews and four radio stations, and at a San Diego opening, five more TV crews and radio stations covering the lines outside the stores waiting for the store to open” (Thompson et al, 2004). Sales were at a peak during those openings. Gradually, without advertising to keep Krispy Kreme fresh and new in the public eye, sales…
