"As the country's coffee leader, National Coffee Day is an exciting holiday for Dunkin' Donuts to recognize and reward our loyal and passionate guests," said John Costello, Chief Global Marketing and Innovation Officer at Dunkin' Brands. "Since launching the 'What Are You Drinkin'?' campaign in January 2011, we have seen a tremendous response from our fans telling us how Dunkin' Donuts coffee fits into their daily rituals. The 'Chance for StarDDom' online contest was inspired by our guests and we can't think of a better way to celebrate their dedication and enthusiasm than by giving the ultimate Dunkin' Donuts coffee fan a chance to appear in one of our upcoming advertisements."
Dunkin' Donuts' "Chance for StarDDom" online contest ties into this year's introduction of Dunkin' Donuts' "What Are You Drinkin'?" integrated advertising and marketing campaign that celebrates the dedication and passion Dunkin' Donuts guests have for the brand's coffee. The campaign features "everyday Joes" and is anchored by a simple question and answer: "What are you drinkin'?", "I'm drinkin' Dunkin'." The campaign is integrated across television, radio, out-of-home and online advertising, as well as social media, public relations and in-restaurant activities to ensure all consumers are engaged through as many outlets as possible.
According to The NPD Group / CREST®, Dunkin' Donuts serves the most hot traditional and iced coffee in America, selling more than one billion cups of hot and iced coffee every year. Dunkin' Donuts uses 100% Arabica coffee beans, and the company's coffee specifications are recognized by the industry as a superior grade of coffee. Dunkin' Donuts was recently ranked number one in customer loyalty in the coffee category for the fifth consecutive year by the 2010 Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement Index.
Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in the United States now offer Dunkin' Donuts K-Cup® portion packs, making "America's Favorite Coffee" available for use with the Keurig® Single-Cup Brewing system.
