People love donuts. It really is that simple. The donut business industry is a thriving one, and anyone who is thinking about becoming part of it is on the right track, especially when you partner with a brand like Shipley Do-Nuts. Ours is an iconic regional name that’s growing, and right now there couldn’t be a better time to join us!
Who Doesn’t Love Donuts?
Did you know that over 200 million Americans snacked on donuts in 2020? That’s a lot of donuts! In fact, the donut business industry is a huge one, and shows no signs of slowing down:
- 10bn: Number of donuts made in the U.S. each year
- $7.3bn: Market size of U.S. donut stores in 2021
- 3%: Market size growth of U.S. donut stores in 2021
Donuts are a beloved snack (a majority of Americans say they love donuts!) that have been around for over 200 years, and nobody bakes them better than Shipley! We offer dozens of choices — from our melt-in-your-mouth glazed donut to our filled, sprinkled, and powdered donuts and cakes — that’ll win the hearts and tastebuds of all your customers. Add to that, our signature fruit-filled kolaches are a top-rated favorite, rounding out our tasty menu of baked goods!
