"Baskin-Robbins has six decades of experience refining its business system to offer a fun, rewarding new business opportunity to franchisees," said Grant Benson, CFE, vice president of franchising and business development for parent company Dunkin' Brands. "As our brand continues to develop, we're now looking for entrepreneurs in Florida with strong financial backgrounds and a passion for their local communities to own their very own ice cream shop."
As part of the company's growth plans to attract new franchisees, the brand recently introduced limited-time development incentives. Baskin-Robbins has also introduced special incentives to help make business ownership a reality for U.S. military servicemen and women.
