BRONX TIMES REPORTER, MARCH 25-31, 2022 BXR
With its 2nd
Bronx location,
Krispy Kreme
comes to The Hub
Krispy Kreme opened its second
Bronx storefront in the borough’s
iconic commercial center,
The Hub, on Tuesday, offering 30
lucky patrons a tasty opportunity
to have their trademark glazed
doughnuts free for a whole a year.
The new location, at 396 E.
149th St., which is New York City’s
13th Krispy Kreme opening since
2020, is open seven days a week
from Sunday through Thursday,
6 a.m.-10 p.m., and Friday and Saturday,
6 a.m.-11 p.m. Throughout
its opening week, the store randomly
awarded 30 lucky guests a
Celebration Ticket worth a dozen
free original glazed doughnuts
every month for a year.
South Bronx patrons can purchase
doughnuts via in-shop
takeout, and by ordering online
or through the Krispy Kreme app
for pick-up or delivery.
The new shop will employ
more than 30 new team members
and managers. The fi rst Bronx
Krispy Kreme location in the
Fordham Manor section opened
in 2020, on East Fordham Road
between Marion and Decatur avenues.
“Our amazing new South
Bronx shop will treat residents,
commuters and visitors to the
world’s most delicious doughnuts,”
said Quay Parham, general
manager of the new location.
“We are thrilled to be expanding
in this vibrant and dynamic community
and look forward to being
a great neighbor and sharing a lot
of joy here.”
