- Dunkin’ on Demand: Dunkin’ has introduced an area dedicated to mobile pickups so that members of the Dunkin’® Rewards program who order ahead via Dunkin’s Mobile App can get in and out of the restaurant faster than ever before. For all orders placed for pick up inside the restaurant, guests will be able to track the status of their order via a new digital order status board.
- Increased Energy Efficiency: Next Gen restaurants are designed to meet DD Green Achievement specifications. Stores that achieve DD Green Achievement status are built with sustainable and efficient elements like LED lighting, high-efficiency mechanical equipment, low-flow faucets, and more. DD Green Achievement restaurants are performing better than designed. On average, they are 33% more energy efficient compared to conventional Dunkin' restaurants.
The 1,800-square-foot restaurant employs approximately 25 crew members and is open daily from 5 a.m. to 8 p.m. Including the new Next Gen Wrightstown restaurant, Dunkin’ franchisee Joseph Young currently owns and operates 18 other Dunkin’ locations throughout Pennsylvania.
