dunkinBR On Monday, June 15, Dunkin’ Brands, parent company of Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins, officially opens its 15,000 th store worldwide in Raleigh, a Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins Express located at 8170 Glenwood Avenue ( map it ). To commemorate the milestone, all Raleigh Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins stores will sell coffee, donuts and soft-serve ice cream cones for the special price of 15 cents from 3 to 5 PM.

NASCAR driver Greg Biffle and NC State head football coach Tom O’Brien will be on hand at the 15,000 th store to personally serve local customers. Biffle will give customers autographed photos and also surprise two lucky customers – one each at the counter and drive-thru – with 15 months worth of coffee and ice cream. Dunkin’ Brands CEO Nigel Travis, Dunkin’ Donuts President and Chief Brand Officer Will Kussell and Baskin-Robbins Chief Brand Officer Srinivas Kumar, will also roll up their sleeves behind the counter to serve customers.

At a special ceremony at 1500 hours (3:00 p.m. ET), the company will also announce a donation to support Homes for Our Troops, a national, non-profit organization that is building a specially adapted home for a severely injured veteran in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Dunkin’ Brands will also donate 1,500 pounds of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee to Give2TheTroops, a non-profit organization that sends care packages to deployed troops. The coffee will help North Carolinians serving abroad enjoy a taste of home.
