CHARLOTTE, N.C. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - August 30, 2021 - “Sweet” dreams have become reality in Cairo, Egypt, as Krispy Kreme has opened the global doughnut brand’s first location in the country with its franchise partner Americana Group.

Krispy Kreme’s iconic Hot Light is now beaming in Cairo, signaling to guests that delicious, hot Original Glazed® doughnuts are available to enjoy fresh off the line. The Hot Light Theater shop, which can produce over 100 dozen doughnuts per hour, will be a destination for residents and visitors, while simultaneously serving as a production hub in Krispy Kreme’s omni-channel strategy to distribute and deliver fresh doughnuts daily to customers via multiple points of access.
