Stan’s Donuts & Coffee has a glittering sign and even a completed drive-thru window announcing its opening in Northwest Indiana on September 6 at 1020 US-41 in Schererville.
But why Northwest Indiana?
“That’s easy,” says Chief Marketing Officer Katrina Sarovich.
The long time Chicago favorite donut group has its main baking facilities in nearby Alsip, Il., inside the Doughboy Restaurant Group. It’s easy to maintain the integrity of the fluffy, sweet product in nearby Schererville.
Stan’s Donuts will have a ribbon cutting on September 4 which signals its readiness. Inside Sarovich says, will be all the regular donuts beloved by Chicagoans. These include, glazed, chocolate, jelly filled and even the cronut, which is a croissant type donut with vanilla filling. There also will be rich coffees and other beverages.
Currently Stan’s Donuts has thirty locations and shows no signs of stopping.
The donuts are slightly different in that they’re beloved by Chicagoans and have attracted young and old fans to the Stan’s trendy buildings. Inside are vegan donuts, breakfasts such as the Stanwich, catering, and much more.
At the Stan’s opening in Indiana, there will be contests with prizes like free donuts for life.
“It’s all coming together,” Sarovich says.
