About

The Krispy Kreme doughnut franchise has four different models from which to choose.

Each store is a retail facility used primarily for the sales of a variety of fresh doughnuts, beverages, and other related food products.

  1. Factory Store - a retail sales facility that manufactures and produces fresh doughnuts on-site, under the system standards. Additionally, Factory Stores may have the capacity to supply fresh doughnuts to Tunnel Oven Shops and Fresh Shops.
  2. Tunnel Oven Shop - a retail sales facility with an impinger oven and limited manufacturing capabilities (e.g., icing and filling equipment) that receives doughnuts from a Factory Store or a Commissary Facility and finishes them as necessary to sell in accordance with system standards.
  3. Fresh Shop - a retail sales facility with limited manufacturing capabilities (e.g., icing and filling equipment), or no manufacturing capabilities, that receives doughnuts from a Factory Store or a Commissary Facility and finishes them, as necessary, to sell in accordance with system standards.
  4. Box Shop – a retail sales facility with no manufacturing capabilities that receives doughnuts from a Factory Store or a Commissary Facility to sell in accordance with the franchisor’s system standards. It is a prefabricated, free-standing self-contained unit resembling a Krispy Kreme doughnut box and is typically located in an enclosed retail area.
