A corporate decision flattens proposed Dunkin' Donuts shop at Concord and Bright.
America may runs on Dunkin', but it won't on Belmont's Concord Avenue anytime soon. A decision by corporate officials in its Canton headquarters has officially sunk plans by a young, Cambridge entrepreneur who proposed opening a Dunkin' Donuts franchise in the new strip mall at Concord Avenue and Bright Street adjacent to the recently opened East Boston Savings Bank branch. This marks the second food-related establishment which has failed to get off the ground after announcing plans to come to a storefront in the new retail development at the site of the former Murray Sandler Skate shop. This past fall, a pair of Belmont residents submitted a proposal to the town to establish a "burger joint" at the site but financial issues and possible…

Third franchise will be partnership with owner of town's other shops and the store's owner from Cambridge.
The owner of Belmont's two Dunkin' Donuts stores will be partnering with the owner of a Cambridge Dunkin's to bring the coffee shop to the new strip mall at the former Murray Sandler Skate shop at the intersection of Concord Avenue and Bright Road. Initial plans call for a store to be located next to the soon-to-be-opened East Boston Savings Bank branch, according to a short conversation with Brandon Woolkalis, a veteran general manager of franchises in Cambridge and a Sergeant on the Cambridge Police Department. Woolkalis or his representatives have yet to submit documentation to the town's Planning Division to highlight his plans and to start the town's review of the operation. This past fall, a pair of Belmont residents submitted a …

CNN reports says Dunkin' Donuts will double stores in 25 years.
Here's some good news for coffee and Munchkin lovers in the area.

In addition to more coffee, Dunkin' Donuts will be adding more jobs. The CNN reports says that each new store adds an average of 20-25 full and part-time new employees.
