(Nasdaq: DNUT) manufactures and sells doughnuts, coffee, and complementary treats through a network of company-owned and franchised shops, fresh delivery channels, and digital platforms worldwide. Founded in 1937 by Vernon Rudolph in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, the company operates in three segments—U.S., International, and Market Development—offering its signature Original Glazed doughnut along with assorted varieties including filled, iced, sprinkled, and seasonal flavors such as Chocolate Original Glazed, Trick or Treat collections, and limited-time offerings like Scary Sharies; it provides doughnut experiences via Hot Light Theater shops, fresh daily branded cabinets in grocery stores, convenience stores, quick-service restaurants, club stores, and pharmacies; beverages including lattes, cappuccinos, milkshakes, iced coffees, and soft drinks; packaged mini bites, combos, and pet treats; with international adaptations like dulce de leche in Brazil or Milk Tart in South Africa. The company conducts operations in over 30 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Spain, Brazil, and Uzbekistan, targeting consumers through retail shops, e-commerce, delivery, and partnerships with retailers like Walmart and Costco. In recent developments, Krispy Kreme sold its remaining stake in Insomnia Cookies Holdings for $75 million in June 2025 to reduce debt and focus on core growth; ended its U.S. partnership with McDonald's in 2025 citing profitability concerns after a 2024 rollout; launched its first shop in Spain in 2025 with plans for over 50 locations nationwide by 2029 including Hot Light Theaters in Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia; expanded into Brazil via a joint venture with Ipiranga's AmPM opening two São Paulo sites by year-end 2025; entered Uzbekistan; progressed on refranchising international markets and restructuring its Western U.S. joint venture with WKS Restaurant Group to a minority stake by 2026; and reported Q3 2025 results showing improved adjusted EBITDA, positive free cash flow, and U.S. delivery optimizations amid its turnaround plan.
