McDonald's, Krispy Kreme celebrate national expansion with free doughnuts

10.10.2024

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts has announced a new promotion to celebrate the debut of its doughnuts at participating Chicagoland McDonald’s restaurants beginning Tuesday, October 15, part of a phased rollout to McDonald’s locations nationwide by the end of 2026.

The doughnut chain will give a free Original Glazed doughnut, limit one per guest, to anyone who shows a McDonald’s paper or digital receipt dated between October 10-14 at participating US Krispy Kreme shops nationwide on the same dates.

Delivered fresh daily to participating McDonald’s restaurants in Chicago, three of Krispy Kreme’s most popular doughnuts will be available all day while supplies last: the iconic Original Glazed Doughnut, the Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles Doughnut and the Chocolate Iced Kreme Filled Doughnut.

“The top request we receive from consumers is for more access to our delicious, fresh doughnuts. Having Krispy Kreme doughnuts under the Golden Arches is golden for our fans and we’re excited to celebrate by giving our guests who also visit a McDonald’s a free Original Glazed doughnut,” says Josh Charlesworth, Krispy Kreme president and chief executive officer.

Krispy Kreme expects to have its fresh doughnuts in more than 1,000 McDonald’s restaurants by the end of this year and a total of 12,000 by the end of 2026.
