I did research online and found Daylight Donuts. They invited me to come to Tulsa to visit the Daylight Donut Corporation and finally I did. I found that Daylight Donuts have excellent management people. They are so knowledgeable and so professional. We are the first American donut shop to open in mainland China. We are so proud of that. And we got a lot of support and help from the headquarters in the United States … several management people even came to help us "grand open" our Daylight Donut shops. With their support and help, I feel I will reach my goal to open 360 Daylight Donut shops in the next 10 years.Andrew Kwok
In the first place, Daylight is top-notch quality, the Rolls Royce of donuts. That's encouraging right from the start knowing that you have a good product to make and sell to the public. Then, they have representatives to come around and see that things are going alright. They just have good service and they've expanded their management scope to be really attentive to the stores. We have people continuously telling us that "Daylight is the best in the world", or "I've never tasted any donuts like Daylight Donuts". We get feedback like that all the time. We don't ask 'em. They come and tell us, "These are the best donuts I ever tasted."James Anderson
