Dunkin' Donuts is an American global doughnut company and coffeehouse chain with operating locations stationed all around the world. With their numbers up to nearly 12,000 locations in 36 separate countries, Dunkin' Donuts has become one of the largest coffee and baked goods chain in the world. Food stuffs that Dunkin’ Donuts sells include donuts, bagels, other baked goods, and a variety of hot and iced beverages. Recently, Dunkin’ Donuts began rebranding as more of a "beverage-led company", and as a result, was renamed simply Dunkin' in January 2019.

Dunkin’ Donuts was founded under the name Open Kettle by William Rosenberg in 1948 in Quincy, Massachusetts. It was only 2 years later in 1950 that the name was changed to Dunkin' Donuts. Rosenberg first came up with the restaurant after his experiences selling food in factories and at construction sites, where donuts and coffee were the two most popular items. Seeing the success, franchises were sold to others starting in 1955. Dunkin' Donuts was under a group called Universal Food Systems, a mash of 10 different small food-service businesses. In the following years, the other businesses in the Universal Food Systems portfolio were sold or closed, and the company was renamed to Dunkin' Donuts. In December 2005, Dunkin' Donuts would be sold to a private equity consortium called Bain Capital, Carlyle Group, and Thomas H. Lee Partners.

Dunkin’ has a large variety of hot, chilled, and frozen drinks for customers to choose from along with a respectable number of choices for doughnuts, bagels, and other baked goods to complement the beverage of choice. Some of their baked goods even come in the form of various breakfast sandwiches or pastries, such as muffins and croissants.
