Jubilant FoodWorks to exit Dunkin' India franchise deal

India's Jubilant FoodWorks will not renew its agreement with US-based Dunkin' to develop and operate stores in the country after the pact expires on December 31, 2026, the restaurant ‌chain operator ⁠said ⁠on Monday.

The company said it will evaluate options ​for the stores, including sale and transfer of ​franchise rights in consultation with Dunkin'.

The coffee-and-doughnut chain has struggled to grow in India, prompting Jubilant to focus ⁠on Domino's ‌pizza business and newer brands such as fried-chicken chain, Popeyes.


The decision ⁠is not expected to have any ​material operational or financial impact, Jubilant ​said.

The brand contributed about 0.61% of the company's revenue and a loss of roughly 191 million rupees in fiscal year 2025, according to an exchange ‌filing.

Jubilant operated 27 Dunkin' outlets in India as of December 2025 and shut seven stores ⁠over the past year, according to its third-quarter investor presentation.

In the October-December quarter, the company's ​profit rose 65% to Rs 70.9 crore ($7.49 million), from Rs 42.91 crore a year ago.
