Krispy Kreme and McDonald’s Market Test Collaboration

About 160 McDonald’s restaurants in the Louisville-Lexington area of Kentucky will start selling Krispy Kreme donuts as part of a market test the two companies run. 

Starting March 21, the restaurants we’ll be serving three Krispy Kreme fan faves – the Original Glazed Doughnut, the Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles Doughnut and the Chocolate Iced Kreme Filled Doughnut – at approximately 160 locations across Louisville, Lexington and the surrounding area.

“The expanded test will help us learn more about operational impact on a larger scale as well as explore customer demand,” said the companies in a joint statement. “And this time around, there are even more ways for fans to satisfy their Krispy Kreme craving, with doughnuts available all day in-restaurant, at the Drive Thru, via McDelivery and on the McDonald’s App.”
