Krispy Kreme Grabs CBD Location

HOUSTON-The city's getting its fifth Krispy Kreme and four more could be on the way. The franchisee says the timing's right to secure CBD space. A 10-year lease for 2,757 sf has been signed for 930 Main St. at McKinney.

HOUSTON-Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, based in Winston-Salem, NC will open a new franchise location May 1 at 930 Main St. at McKinney.

Kevin Gordon, president of the local franchise, Lone Star Doughnuts LP, tells GlobeSt.com that the CBD is a prime market since there are no other doughnut stores in the submarket. And, he says, it’s important to get a spot in the hot market before the revitalization settles down and available space is near impossible to find.

According to Gordon, this is the franchise’s fifth store in the Gulf Coast area and four more are coming. He says it normally takes 90 days to build, but the scaled-down CBD location will only require 60 days. A typical store ranges from 3,050 sf to 3,750 sf, says Gordon. The CBD Krispy Kreme won’t have a drive-through window so it is designed with 2,757 sf.
