As National Doughnut Day approaches on Friday, June 7, doughnut enthusiasts have reason to rejoice with Krispy Kreme‘s generous offerings.
Krispy Kreme is set to mark the occasion by offering customers complimentary doughnuts alongside an enticing deal on doughnut dozens.
According to a recent press release from Krispy Kreme, patrons visiting any Krispy Kreme outlet on Friday will receive one free doughnut of their choice, sans any obligatory purchase. Additionally, in celebration of National Doughnut Day, a box of a dozen doughnuts can be purchased for a mere $2, provided another dozen is bought alongside.
Dave Skena, the global chief brand officer, expressed the company’s enthusiasm for the event, stating, “Krispy Kreme fans look forward to National Doughnut Day every year, and this year they can get their favorite for free! It’s a sweet day all around. We can’t wait to thank everyone for their love of Krispy Kreme doughnuts.”
However, it’s important to note that limited-edition Krispy Kreme flavors, including those from special collaborations such as the Dolly Parton collection, are not included in the complimentary doughnut offer. Only regular flavors will be available for selection.
In a separate development, Krispy Kreme recently announced a strategic partnership with McDonald’s, aiming to broaden the availability of Krispy Kreme doughnuts across the United States, as reported by the Deseret News.
Under this collaboration, Krispy Kreme doughnuts will soon be accessible at McDonald’s outlets nationwide, with fresh deliveries scheduled daily, as outlined in a Krispy Kreme press release. The rollout is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year, making Krispy Kreme doughnuts available at numerous McDonald’s locations across the country.
Tariq Hassan, McDonald’s USA’s chief marketing and customer experience officer, expressed excitement about the partnership, stating, “This partnership is an exciting next step in that journey and a chance to unlock new business opportunities in the breakfast category and throughout the day. Our fans’ love for Krispy Kreme runs deep, and we can’t wait to make it even easier for them to satisfy their sweet tooth at McDonald’s restaurants across the country.”
