His goal was to “make and serve the freshest, most delicious coffee and donuts quickly and courteously in modern, well merchandised stores.”

Fast forward to today and the company is the world’s leading baked goods and coffee chain, serving more than 5 million customers, every single day.

Dunkin’ Donuts arrival follows the news that Frenchgate has received planning consent for a multiplex cinema and is currently in discussions with two well-known cinema brands. 

Work on the £8 million investment will begin later this year, ahead of a spring 2020 opening.
