Why Dunkin' Donuts Is Failing in India

[@crazycolbster]

As a white American who lived in India for 2 years, I can confidently say I'd much rather eat Mysore Bajji for breakfast any day over donuts.

[@shresthmehta4485]

Emilio Fernandez exactly

[@Bzeager]

Yes, and in fact, we (Australia) haven’t even got Dunkin’ and I’m assuming it’s much the same like India... we see donuts as treats, certainly not a breakfast item. Krispy Kreme is here, but is quite limited and is only a few per state in tourist areas (airport + city centre) largely. EDIT: On Wikipedia it shows that Australia was a “former” location for Dunkin’... didn’t even know this.

[@sayamjain1748]

Thats what i was about to say.

Indians aren't into donuts as much as the west, but it's also because KrispyKreme is actually expensive compared to other donut chains.

My friends (from all over the EU countries) all seem to share a remarkably good food culture, always regard breakfast as a time to eat something actually healthy (eggs, fruit/veggies, bread, porridge). Force-feeding kids with good food seems to be the tradition. Of course kids themselves will always want to eat cereals with cartoon mascots and sugar, but that's a responsible adult's job to make sure it doesn't happen.

The lady Dr says “India is BECOMING more health conscious”. She missed the point that Indians have always been health conscious from time immemorial. Period. There has not been a single period in history where Indians haven’t laid enough stress on eating vegetables and fruits. Unlike the west, who like processed food, Indians have always used salads, prepared dishes which bring out the flavours of the vegetables. We’ve always used the best ingredients and don’t depend solely on salt and sugar to enhance tastes. The use of white flour or Maida which is otherwise used without second thoughts in the western world is hardly used as a staple flour in India since ancient times. We’re probably one of the few cultures that has laid more stress on eating wholesome foods. Maida/refined flour is used occasionally for very few food items and is definitely not used in breakfasts. I hate the way our own people downplay our food culture so foolishly.

[@thesoutherntourer7782]

My analysis is, 1. Donut is cultural food of America. It's a breakfast food.😂 Indians don't have sweet things for breakfast. It's vadapav, chole bhature or idli sambar etc to convince Indian People to have sweet things for breakfast like Americans is hard. Even Kellogg's still struggling with their breakfast cereals. 2. Anything that is sweet, Indians mostly see it as a Dessert. Not as a main part of the meal. 3. Donuts are over priced. Even rich Indians can see it. For Rs 60-70 which these US company is selling, people here can get a Black forest Cake from a branded store. For Indians Donuts are just vada shaped breads with cream on top. When they see Rs 60-70/peice price tag they laugh inside their head because why would they pay that much money for breads with different kind of cream in top. The perceived price value is low, actually value is high. This stop them from doing a regular purchase.

They forgot the fact thag an average working indian doesn't have the luxury of time in the mornings while commuting for work. We would rather prefee a ₹6 cutting (roadside tea) and anna ka idli-wada rather than have breakfast in a fast food chain. It saves us both money and time

[@simonsez6200]

Rightly said. Dunkin' didn't study the Indian consumer culture enough, or should I say, didn't derive the right conclusions from their study before taking the plunge. The enamor of that sweet sweet potential profit from an untapped market is far too much for some brands to resist, and suddenly they find themselves in a diving headlong into a financial trap. Always remember the age-old adage: look before you leap!

[@jasonmascarenhas5177]

They must sell donuts very expensively in India. Where I'm from, it's the other way around: 2 Dunkin donuts is roughly the price of the most basic burger from McDonalds.

10 rs tea doesn't get you the seating space, the lighting, the air conditioning, the packaging, the quality control and hygienic assurance + other background services like a clean room, and washrooms. That's why you pay 199* for tea, or coffee even - CCD, Starbucks etc (ps: tea is mentioned at 199 not 450)
