Mister Donut[edit | edit source]

Mister Donut is a fast food franchise founded in the United States in 1956 by Harry Winouker. The company is one of the largest donut chains in the world, with over 10,000 stores in more than 30 countries. The company's primary offerings include donuts, coffee, muffins, and pastries.

History[edit | edit source]

Harry Winouker started the Mister Donut business in 1956 after a falling out with his brother-in-law, William Rosenberg, the founder of Dunkin' Donuts. The first Mister Donut outlet was opened in Boston, Massachusetts. In 1990, the company was acquired by Allied Lyons, the parent company of Dunkin' Donuts. As a result, most of the Mister Donut stores in North America were converted into Dunkin' Donuts.

International Presence[edit | edit source]

Mister Donut has a significant presence in Asia, particularly in Japan, where it is operated by Duskin Co. Ltd. The company entered the Japanese market in 1971 and has since grown to become the largest donut chain in the country. Other countries where Mister Donut operates include the Philippines, Thailand, and Taiwan.

Products[edit | edit source]

Mister Donut offers a wide range of products, including various types of donuts, coffee, muffins, and pastries. Some of the popular donut varieties include the "Pon de Ring", a chewy, mochi-like donut, and the "Old Fashioned", a traditional cake donut. The company also offers seasonal and limited-time products.
