Tuesday, October 17, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts will open in Fort Lauderdale at 2510 W. Broward Blvd.
“Fort Lauderdale has always been a core market for Krispy Kreme,” says Chris D’Angelo, Vice President of Krispy Kreme South Florida. “Everyone is familiar with the store on Federal Highway but we realized that we have many customers living west who would benefit from a store on W. Broward Blvd.”
To mark the opening, the shop will switch on its “Hot Now” light for the first time at 6 a.m. on Tuesday and will hand out free doughnuts and exclusive specials to the first 100 customers in line.
The first customer will receive a free box of a dozen glazed doughnuts every week for a year. The next 99 people in line will receive one free dozen doughnuts per month for a year, and the first 100 people will receive a souvenir T-shirt.
