American doughnut chain Dunkin’ is setting up shop in France, opening its first two stores in May.
A 200-square-metre flagship store will open on May 14 at 19 Boulevard Montmartre.
It will be followed by an outlet at 13 Rue d'Amsterdam, Gare Saint Lazare a few days later.
The menu will include 18 different varieties of doughnut, priced between €2.50 and €3.70, as well coffee, sandwiches and other drinks and snacks.
"We plan to open several dozen stores between 2025 and 2026 in Paris and the Île-de-France region before expanding into other metropolitan areas," Jean-Wilfrid Thibault, head of Dunkin’
France, told French outlet Capital.
Founded in 1950 in Quincy, Massachusetts, the fast-food giant was known as Dunkin’ Donuts until 2019, when it was renamed Dunkin’ to coincide with a larger focus on drinks.
Today, the company serves over 4.5 million customers a day in 38 countries.
Dunkin’s move into France comes after its parent group, Inspire Brands, made a franchise deal with fast food group QSRP, which will have the rights to grow the brand in France.
