How Is Dunkin’ Donuts Franchise Positioned in the Food and Beverage Industry?
The Food and Beverage industry in the USA accounts for 13% of all manufacturing employment in the country. This industry employs around 1.46 million people. Food franchises make up to 36% of the total franchise establishments in the USA and it is expected to create 1.6 million more jobs by 2027. The annual growth rate in the industry is around 2% and the EBITDA multiplier is around 3x for a single restaurant. Multiples can go up to 7x for 5+ restaurants.
Dunkin’ Donuts competes in the coffee market against big brand companies such as Starbucks. Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees also compete against other nearby Dunkin’ Donuts locations.
One of the benefits of buying a coffee shop is that it does not require much industry-specific knowledge. Many first-time business owners buy coffee shops and this industry is very popular among first-time franchise owners. There is a lot of information about general business practices as well as coffee shop specifics, so the learning curve is less steep. Any owner in the industry is expected to be knowledgeable in the specifics of coffee, trends, and coffee-related drinks.
High turnover and discretionary spending characterize the coffee shop industry. This industry has experienced a period of rapid expansion over the last decade. The existing competition in the industry is expected to intensify. Industry profitability is expected to increase, recovering from the decline early in the period. International expansion is anticipated to be the largest source of revenue and profit growth.

Alternatives to a Dunkin’ Donuts Franchise
There are a lot of competitors in the coffee shop industry and one of the biggest ones is Starbucks. These are the two largest US chains focusing on coffee and coffee branded products. Even though it came out after Dunkin’, Starbucks growed to be bigger than Dunkin’. Starbucks generated over $23.5 billion in 2020, while Dunkin’ Brands’ 2019 annual revenues were $1.3 billion. Another one of Dunkin’s biggest competitors is Krispy Kreme. Krispy Kreme recently went public in 2021. You can learn more about a Krispy Kreme franchise here.
Let’s look at some other competitors to a Dunkin’ franchise
Tim Hortons
Tim Hortons is a Canada-based company that sells coffee and other non-alcoholic beverages as well as baked goods, soups, and sandwiches. They were founded in 1984 in Ontario and have since grown, with 5,291 stores currently operating in the United States. Tim Hortons has recently pursued expansion into international markets, with 42 additional franchised locations in Latin America. With a large presence in North America, Tim Hortons is Canada’s largest quick-service restaurant chain. Tim Hortons is a subsidiary of Restaurant Brands International (RBI), a Canadian Corporation. Notably, RBI also owns Burger King, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, and Firehouse of America.
A 15% profit margin would yield estimated annual profits of $158,144. This means it would take nearly 11 years to recoup your investment. While Tim Hortons is a growing company and has seen increasing gross sales, the 8-14 year timeframe that you could reasonably expect to recoup your initial investment may be a long time for one to wait.
Duck Donuts
Duck Donuts is an American-based chain store known for selling “warm, delicious, and made to order” donuts and other breakfast pastries. Originally founded in 2006 in North Carolina, Duck Donuts has since expanded to over 100 stores across the United States. Prospective franchisees will be happy to hear that Duck Donuts operates under the franchising model, meaning nearly all of their stores are franchises.
A 15% profit margin would yield estimated annual profits of $83,145. This means it would take nearly 8 years to recoup your investment. Based solely on the Franchise Disclosure Document, Duck Donuts may be an exciting investment opportunity for potential franchisees. A 6 to 11 year timeframe for a return on investment is less than the industry average, and Duck Donuts has seen positive increases in the total number of stores over the past three years.
Scooter’s Coffee
Scooter’s Coffee is an American chain of coffee stores specializing in quick service of espresso drinks, smoothies, and baked goods founded in 1998 and has grown to about 250 stores in the United States. Boundless Enterprises, a Nebraska-based LLC, serves as the parent company for Scooter’s. The parent company also owns two affiliate companies – Harvest Roasting and Boundless Operations.
A 15% profit margin would yield estimated annual profits of $88,158. This means it would take nearly 9-10 years to recoup your investment depending on whether your store is a kiosk or coffeehouse. While Scooter’s is a growing company and has seen increasing gross sales over the past six years, the 7-14 year timeframe that you could reasonably expect to recoup your initial investment may be a long time for one to wait.
Krispy Kreme
Doughnuts are one of the most liked desserts/snacks in the United States. One of the best places to eat Doughnuts is Krispy Kreme, considered by most, the best doughnut shop in the country. Krispy Kreme offers doughnuts in addition to beverages and other related products.
Based on a midpoint investment of $2,498,750 with estimated profits of $525,000 at a 15% profit margin, it would take about 7 years to recoup your investment. Krispy Kreme is according to most people the best doughnut restaurant in the United States. Krispy Kreme has seen strong economic growth in the past years, for instance, in 2021 it saw organic growth of 22.5% compared to 2020 and a growth in sales of 42.6%! These numbers are very promising. If you decide to go ahead and open a Krispy Kreme, you can be sure you will sell a lot of doughnuts and coffee!
Biggby
Biggby is a community coffee shop chain with offerings of espresso beverages, sandwiches, baked goods, etc. Their franchise is generally operated from either a free-standing, storefront or strip center location. Or a prefabricated modular structure. Biggby has a very high focus on community integration which they credit for their economic recovery after COVID. Robert P. Fish is a Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Biggby since April 2016 along with Michael J. McFall. Both of them are managing members of Global Orange, Biggby’s associates.
A 15% profit margin would mean it would take nearly 4.5 years to recoup your investment. Based solely on the Franchise Disclosure Document, Biggby may be an exciting investment opportunity for potential franchisees. The company presents itself as an up-and-coming player in the industry focused heavily on community values and engagement. It is offering a chance to be a part of an industry that has been long present. While still in its early stages, Biggby Coffee’s growth seems to be accelerating.
Dunkin’s Acquisition
In 2020, Inspire Brands purchased Dunkin’ Brands. Other brands owned by Inspire include Arby’s, Buffalo Wild Wings, Sonic Drive-In, and Jimmy John’s. The purchase had a cost of $11.3 billion at a share price of $106.5 per share. This put Inspire Brands in the number two spot in the USA for foodservice companies by the number of locations and sales with 32,000 restaurants in 60 countries globally, making $26 billion in sales.
