Dunkin' Donuts has announced that it has signed a franchisee agreement with local entrepreneurs Sadi Sanlav and Mo Rahimi to expand the brand's presence in Germany. The two business partners, who have an established track record in the German restaurant scene, plan to develop at least 15 new Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in the Frankfurt, Rhine-Main area throughout the next five years.
"We are very excited to announce the expansion of the Dunkin' Donuts brand in Germany, where we have developed an engaged and enthusiastic following for our high-quality beverages and baked goods," said Giorgio Minardi, president, Dunkin' Brands International. "We have found strong local partners in Sadi Sanlav and Mo Rahimi, who are successful entrepreneurs in the restaurant industry. We look forward to supporting them as they bring Dunkin' Donuts to even more consumers across Germany."
Dunkin' Donuts currently has more than 30 locations across Germany, concentrated in the Berlin and Nordrhein-Westfalen metropolitan areas. With the new franchisee agreement, the total number of Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in Germany will rise to nearly 50 locations in the coming years. Dunkin' Donuts offers its guests in Germany a full menu of the brand's classic food and beverages.
"Mo and I are proud to represent Dunkin' Donuts in Germany and look forward to bringing Dunkin' Donuts' range of high-quality hot and iced beverages, sandwiches and baked goods, along with the brand's great value and customer service, to people throughout the Frankfurt and Rhine-Main areas," said Sadi Sanlav, Dunkin' Donuts franchisee.
Other franchise opportunities for Dunkin' Donuts are still available in areas throughout Germany.
