These international issues are the donut flavour do not match with international customer and some country culture makes drive through service failed.

In the Porter Five Forces of KKD, we found that they have low threat in new entrant, low bargaining power of supplier, high bargaining power of buyer, high threat of substitute product, and three competitors which is Dunkin’ Doughnut, Starbuck, and Tim Horton. For KKD’s SWOT analysis, we found that their strength is always serving hot donut to the customer. Their weakness is most of the KKD international store has closed down. The opportunity is adding more stores in current target markets to make it convenient for all metropolitan area residents. The threat is their competitor which is Dunkin’ Donut has focus on premium coffee and it has headed the market.
