FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- The Dunkin' Donuts restaurants will be developed over the next few years by existing franchisee Aharon Aminpour, who operates one in Encino, California.

The exact locations of the planned Central Valley Dunkin' Donuts have yet to be announced, but the company confirmed locations would include Fresno, Clovis, Visalia, and Tulare. Currently, the closest Dunkin' Donuts location is in Modesto. The company also plans to develop nine new restaurants in San Francisco and the surrounding cities.

Founded in 1950, Dunkin' Donuts has grown to be a customer favorite for coffee and donuts, with more than 11,300 restaurants in 37 countries worldwide. Grant Benson, CFE, vice president of global franchising and business development, Dunkin' Brands said, "With the addition of these enthusiastic and dedicated franchisees, we're proud to announce 26 new restaurants in the Golden state, which brings our current development commitments to more than 275 total restaurants in California. We are thrilled these existing franchisees have chosen to expand their presence in the California market, and know these new restaurants will satisfy a growing consumer demand for Dunkin' Donuts in the Fresno and San Francisco communities they will serve."
