Dunkin' Donuts™
Location : Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Product : Art Select Midnight Oak HC06 and Da Vinci Santi Limestone LST05
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 trafic
in a congested area with neighboring restaurants and coffee houses, Joe Uhler, Heartland's Real Estate Manager, decided to
think outside the box. To make the shop stand out, Uhler 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 trafic on them every day."
