“We’re attracting a new consumer with both espresso and our Power Platform and will continue to bring more on-trend innovation to fuel guests throughout the day.”

The quick-service restaurant chain opened 109 new restaurants globally, including 46 Dunkin’ US and 11 Dunkin’ international locations, as well as 43 Baskin-Robbins international locations and nine Baskin-Robbins US locations.

During the quarter, Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins US franchisees remodelled 30 and 12 restaurants respectively.

Hoffmann continued: “Additionally, as a result of a highly collaborative process with our franchisees, the Next Generation restaurant design, with nearly 300 already in the marketplace, is now the standard image for all new builds and remodels.

“This new store design takes our commitment to serving ‘great coffee, fast’ to the next level through an optimised mobile order pick-up experience, iced beverage tap system, and drive-thru enhancements that make it even easier to use Dunkin’ on-the-go.

“We are pleased with the progress we are making against our Dunkin’ US Blueprint for Growth, largely driven by our strong franchisee/franchisor relationship, which continues to be our number one asset.”
