Dunkin’ Donuts to close 800 locations in the U.S.

The Dunkin’ Donuts coffee-chain said Thursday that it expects to permanently close about 800 locations nationwide, according to CNN.

Dunkin’ said the locations have low sales volume and represent only 2% of its U.S. sales last year. The company did not say what locations would close.

The company detailed the changes in its quarterly earnings report and described the closures as a “real estate portfolio rationalization.”

More than half of the closures are in Speedway convenience stores.

The company also said it may permanently close about 350 locations outside of the U.S.
