    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.…

    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,…

    Even though, Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts has a very similarities in their menus and the way how they advertise their product by using the same media market to get them out to the public. As a customer, I will prefer Dunkin’ Donuts because those stores are in walking distance from my place of work and they have two DD in my town. There is no Starbucks in near my town. For example, during the summer I go to DD just to get a drink after a hot day and I will stay to use their free Wi-Fi that is available for everyone to use. Plus, they are known for having a high quality…
