An iconic 32-foot donut may give Randy’s an edge in Japan

In breaking into Japan’s rough-and-tumble, dog-eat-dog donut market, the place manufacturers huge and small struggle to foist their fare upon confectionary-savvy customers, an enormous donut doesn’t damage.

“Everyone loves footage of themselves with the massive donut,” stated Mark Kelegian, president and CEO of Randy’s Donuts, a U.S. firm that just lately signed a Japanese franchise deal for as much as 50 retailers within the nation.

The donut in query is a 32-foot diameter sculpture that sits atop the Randy’s Donuts location in Inglewood, which is in Los Angeles County.
