On Monday, May 11, Dunkin’ Donuts opened their doors to the Columbia City community and celebrated with a ribbon cutting ceremony hosted by the Columbia City Area Chamber of Commerce.
Owned by Kim & Gavin Hart, this location joins three other Dunkin’ Donuts owned by the Hart’s in the Fort Wayne area and will be providing their important service of bringing fresh pastries, muffins, cookies, and flatbread sandwiches as well as the most preferred coffee in the country to the area 24 hours a day.
The Dunkin’ Donuts chain, in business for over 50 years, is the #1 retailer of hot and iced regular coffee-by-the-cup in America, and the largest coffee and baked goods chain in the world.
