Yum-Yum Donuts is a chain of doughnut shops based in the United States. Founded in 1971 by Phillip C. Holland, Yum-Yum Donuts initially opened its doors in Highland Park, Los Angeles, California. The brand has since expanded, operating numerous locations primarily in Southern California. Yum-Yum Donuts is known for its wide variety of doughnuts, pastries, and beverages, catering to a diverse range of tastes and preferences.

History[edit | edit source]

The first Yum-Yum Donuts shop was established in 1971, marking the beginning of what would become a well-known establishment in the doughnut shop industry. Phillip C. Holland's vision was to create a doughnut shop that not only offered high-quality, fresh doughnuts but also a place where customers could enjoy a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The success of the first shop led to the opening of additional locations across Southern California.

In 2004, Yum-Yum Donuts made a significant expansion move by acquiring Winchell's Donuts, another doughnut chain with a long history in the region. This acquisition allowed Yum-Yum Donuts to further solidify its presence in the market and expand its customer base.

Products[edit | edit source]

Yum-Yum Donuts offers a wide range of products, including traditional doughnuts, filled doughnuts, cake doughnuts, and specialty doughnuts. In addition to doughnuts, the chain also serves a variety of pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and beverages, including coffee and tea. The brand is known for its commitment to freshness and quality, with doughnuts made fresh daily.

Locations[edit | edit source]

While Yum-Yum Donuts primarily operates in Southern California, its acquisition of Winchell's Donuts has expanded its footprint, allowing the brand to serve a larger demographic. The shops are strategically located in various communities, making it accessible to a broad audience.

Community Involvement[edit | edit source]

Yum-Yum Donuts is actively involved in the communities where it operates. The chain participates in local events and supports various charitable causes, reflecting its commitment to giving back to the community.
