Dunkin’ Donuts, serves more than 3 million customers each day. In the fall of 2010, Heartland Restaurant Group –
a Dunkin’ Brands, Inc. Franchisee – opened a new location near the University of Pittsburgh.
Realizing that the typical Dunkin’ Donuts prototype would not have the visual appeal necessary to stand out and attract traffic in a
congested area with neighboring restaurants and coffee houses. To make the shop stand out, Joe Uhler, Heartland’s Real Estate
Manager, began searching for construction materials that would support a more trendy, cool and collegiate look.
“I liked the fact that Karndean provided me with a variety of product options. I sent over a picture of our space, and Karndean
matched up the flooring selections to our Dunkin’ Donuts colors, which are central to our branding. They also worked the
Dunkin’ Donuts logo right into the flooring – something that is really attractive and different. The products were easy to install,
which saved us time and money. Most importantly, I’m pleased with the performance of these floors, and am comfortable
having a lot of heavy foot traffic on them every day.”
