McDonald’s USA has entered a partnership to offer Krispy Kreme doughnuts at its fast-food outlets starting in the latter half of 2024.
The partnership will bring three Krispy Kreme varieties to the fast-food chain’s menu: the classic glazed doughnut, the chocolate iced doughnut with sprinkles, and the chocolate iced doughnut with cream filling.
Each morning, fresh items will be delivered to McDonald’s outlets. Customers can choose to purchase them individually or in a pack of six.
The decision to expand Krispy Kreme donut availability across the fast food chain comes after a successful trial in 160 Lexington and Louisville, Kentucky outlets.

Josh Charlesworth, the President and CEO of Krispy Kreme, commented, “Every day, the most frequent request we get from consumers is: ‘please bring Krispy Kreme to my town.’”

The partnership will feature a blend of Krispy Kreme outlets and AmPm convenience stores, providing fresh doughnuts to consumers in Brazil. Market entry is targeted for the end of 2024 to early 2025.
