Krispy Kreme Doughnuts has announced its return to Fukuoka after receiving numerous requests from local residents for the brand’s revival in the region. The “comeback flagship” store is set to open on April 24, 2025, in the newly constructed ONE FUKUOKA BLDG. This marks the first Krispy Kreme location in Fukuoka since the brand previously ceased operations in the area. The store in ONE FUKUOKA BLDG. will kick off a larger expansion plan in the Fukuoka region, with the company aiming to open additional locations in the future. Krispy Kreme intends to reestablish itself as a beloved brand in Fukuoka and across Kyushu, catering to both nostalgic fans and new customers with its signature doughnuts and coffee offerings.
This return is part of the company’s strategy to strengthen its presence in Japan by focusing on regional areas where demand remains high. Details about store hours, menu offerings, and subsequent location openings are expected to be announced closer to the launch date. Source: Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
