Dunkin’ Donuts, the world’s largest coffee and bakery quick-service restaurant chain, is in the midst of a national expansion to increase its franchise locations in the U.S. Fueling this growth is today’s announcement that the state of Alabama is now open for franchise sales with plans to open more than 142 new restaurants over the next several years. Markets targeted within the state for franchise development include Birmingham, Mobile, Montgomery, Tuscaloosa and Huntsville, AL, as well as Pensacola, FL.
