By GlobalDataWil Torres, managing principal of TSW Foods, claimed there is already “enormous excitement” surrounding the roll-out.
“When you combine Krispy Kreme’s brand equity and best-in-class products with TSW Foods’ ability to execute on a national scale, it is a recipe for success. There is a synergy between our two companies that we feel will result in a profitable, long-term partnership for both of us,” Torres said.
The products will join Krispy Kreme Doughnuts’ other primarily yeast sweet treat products already available via frequent direct store delivery in more than 5,000 convenience stores nationwide.
