New Orlando Duck Donuts is One of Four to Open in the Area
Russ DiGilio, founder and owner of Duck Donuts Franchising Company LLC, has announced the newest Duck Donuts location in Kissimmee, situated in the Orlando tourism district.
Mark and Susan Griffin, franchise owners, are thrilled to open the doors to their 1,500-square foot donut shop in spring 2017. “We first experienced Duck Donuts in 2007 while vacationing in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. After our kids had their first Duck Donuts, it quickly became a ‘must do’ part of our vacation each year. With each summer visit to Duck Donuts, we discussed how incredible it would be to bring this experience from one of the places we love to another place we love–Orlando,” says franchisee Mark Griffin.
Duck Donuts is committed to growth in the Sunshine State, and Griffin plans to open a total of four new locations in the Orlando region, beginning this spring.
“We’re looking forward to developing a Duck Donuts team who loves to serve others, is passionate about giving back, and enjoys making people’s day! Each Duck Donuts provides 25-40 new jobs – if you’re seeking a place to make a difference in addition to being excited about coming to work each day, stop in to see me at our new location,” says Griffin.
“We’re excited to offer even more family traditions to the great state of Florida and to the families visiting Orlando,” says DiGilio. Riding a wave of organic franchise growth, Duck Donuts Franchising Company has 34 open stores and 140 contracts as of February 10, 2017.
Duck Donuts was founded in 2006 by Russ DiGilio in Duck, North Carolina. His intention? To solve a family vacation problem: “Our family wanted a place to buy warm, delicious & made to order!™ donuts, and when we couldn’t find one, we decided to start our own.”
Duck Donuts at The Crosslands Shopping Center will be made fresh to order 7 days a week; Sunday-Thursday from 6:30am-7pm and on Friday and Saturday from 6:30am-9pm.
