"As not only a local business owner but a member of this community, it was heartbreaking to see the destruction of our beautiful city brought on by the hurricane,” said Michael Koroghlian, Dunkin’ Franchisee and Fort Myers resident for 20 years. “Our communities need us now more than ever, and we want to do all that we can to support those who are dedicating so much of their time and effort to bringing relief to those in need.”
Over 50 Dunkin’ restaurants throughout the Southwest Florida region have reopened.
Local Dunkin’ franchisees, like Michael Koroghlian, have made it a point to not only open back up to serve the community. But also to bring back crew members who have been out of work due to Hurricane Ian. Like many businesses in the area, the storm forced stores to close for a period of time due to lack of power and water. Dunkin’ is happy to welcome back crew members to help service guests via the drive-thru as it continues to support the community.
