Two updates[edit]
- I think a section called "founding years" should entail max. the first 20% of a company's history, but here it's more than 50%
- The 2012 map in the section "locations" need updating, for example DD is now present in Switzerland 178.238.175.188 (talk) 14:46, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- The History section should be re-sectioned. In addition to the problem you noted, calling post-2004 "Success years in management" seems like an unnecessary insult to Bob, who grew the company from 100 locations to 6500. That's a 65x increase, as opposed to the 2x increase of the "success years". GA-RT-22 (talk) 20:10, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 23 May 2023[edit]

I would kindly request that the "Locations" subsection be updated to reflect that Dunkin' operates a significant number of locations here in Germany. As quoted in German from their own German website:
"Dunkin' opened their first location in Germany in 1999. The first store opened in Berlin. A dozen are located here alone. Numerous locations are located throughout Germany. According to the German Wikipedia, the 100th location was opened in Berlin-Henningsdorf in November 2022. As of January 2022, there were 66 locations across Germany with the majority of stores being located in: Berlin (17 locations), Bavaria (15 locations) and Northrhine-Westphalia (12 locations).

- Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Please note that reliable sources should also be independent. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
Official web site[edit]
The official web site should be removed from the infobox and the EL section per point 7 of WP:ELNO: "Sites that are inaccessible to a substantial number of users, such as sites that work only ... in a specific country." I don't know where the site is accessible, but it appears to be inaccessible in countries where the company has no presence, which would certainly be the majority of the world.

Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject, one should generally avoid providing external links to:

Map corrections[edit]
Hello, As far as I can tell, Dunkin' Donuts has locations in the Netherlands, I can find locations on Google Maps [1], a .nl version of the website [2], and videos of people visiting them [3]
I wanted to create this category for other potential map mistakes. lemongrasscap (talk) 09:04, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
