Krispy Kreme Doughnuts South Africa will open their first store outside of Gauteng at The Gateway Theatre of Shopping in Umhlanga, Kwa-Zulu Natal in March 2017.

The international brand has been around for 79 years and their first store in South Africa opened in Gauteng in November 2015 at The Zone @ Rosebank, Johannesburg. Following that, four stores opened in The Sandton Gautrain, The Mall of Africa, Clearwater Mall and Sandton City, all in Gauteng.

Gateway Theatre of Shopping

Gateway Theatre of Shopping is the ultimate fashion, entertainment and dining destination, with over 400 stores, 70 eateries and a host of exciting entertainment. “Krispy Kreme South Africa is extremely proud and excited to ‘share the joy that is Krispy Kreme’ with Durban and create wonderful memories,” said Krispy Kreme South Africa CEO, Gerry Thomas.

More Stores

There are two more stores due to open in 2016 still, at Menlyn Park shopping Centre in late November and Eastgate in December,

‘’It is strategic to Krispy Kreme South Africa’s rollout that we open stores in major regional shopping centres. “Krispy Kreme South Africa are very fortunate to have secured a prime location in Gateway Theatre of Shopping, making this launch all the more exciting!” said Thomas.

“The store’s position is also well situated as the smaller Krispy Kreme fresh stores planned for Durban’s other major shopping centres will be supplied out of the Gateway factory production store.” The Krispy Kreme store in The Gateway Theatre of Shopping will be located at G350, Palm Boulevard.
