Fargo-Area Dunkin’ Operates Without Doughnuts for Four Months
A Dunkin' store located inside a Fargo-area Walmart has been open for nearly four months without selling doughnuts, despite continuing to offer drinks.
Champaign Urbana & Springfield Decatur, IL, November 14, 2026 —
A Dunkin’ franchise located within a Walmart in the Fargo area has been operating for approximately four months without offering its signature doughnuts to customers. The store, however, continues to serve beverages.
The specific reason for the prolonged absence of doughnuts from the menu was not immediately available. The franchise has reportedly been open for close to four months under these conditions, focusing solely on its drink offerings, which include coffee, iced beverages, and other specialty drinks.
The arrangement places a Dunkin’ outlet within the retail space of a Walmart Supercenter, a common co-branding strategy. While many such partnerships offer a full range of Dunkin’ products, this particular location appears to be an exception, particularly regarding its baked goods.
Customers visiting the store have been able to purchase drinks, but the inability to buy doughnuts, a core item for the Dunkin’ brand, has become a notable characteristic of its operation during this period. Information regarding when doughnuts might be added to the store’s offerings was not provided. The contractor responsible for any potential installations or modifications was not specified.
The duration of nearly four months without the sale of doughnuts raises questions about operational adjustments or supply chain issues that may be affecting the location. Further details about the store’s operational status and product availability were not disclosed.
