A new product may appear near you somewhere on the miles-long menu at McDonald\u2019s. The massive fast-food chain has begun experimenting with selling Krispy Kreme doughnuts. (Click here for brands that customers are abandoning.)<\/p>\n
It is a frontal assault against Dunkin\u2019, which sells doughnuts nationwide from its 9,468 stores. If the McDonald\u2019s plan works, Dunkin\u2019 has a problem. McDonald\u2019s has 13,269 stores in America. It also has a much larger amount of foot and drive-through traffic.<\/p>\n
Few people know Dunkin\u2019s revenue because it is privately held. McDonald\u2019s has revenue of $32 billion, which must be much higher.<\/p>\n
The McDonald\u2019s playbook to devour competition has been in place for decades. It adds to its menu and captures customers who come to its stores. It has partially flanked Starbucks, and it has undermined breakfast sales at several other midsized fast-food locations, such as Burger King and Chick-fil-A.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t
