As part of Dunkin' Donuts aggressive expansion plan, the company has signed a multiunit store development agreement with existing franchisee Savoureux Corporation for 12 new restaurants in North Omaha, Neb., and Sioux City, Iowa. The first restaurant is expected to open in 2013.
Savoureux Corporation is led by NFL and former University of Nebraska football players Kris Brown and Zach Wiegert, who have teamed up with Jeff Woodbury, a principal of Woodbury Corporation, and David Scott, CEO of Tetrad Corporations, an Omaha-based real estate and investment firm.
In April 2011, Savoureux Corporation committed to develop five Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in North Kansas City, Mo.
"We are excited to expand Dunkin' Donuts presence in Omaha and Sioux City and play an important role in the daily lives of people who live, work and visit here," Brown said. "We have a passion and loyalty for the brand and look forward to the opening of our restaurants in the years to come."
