On the Rise: With a Pending IPO and Plans for International Growth, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Had Six Months to Find the Right Recipe for Training Store Managers
Overview Since its initial public offering in April 2000 - the second most successful IPO that year, according to Bloomberg L.P. - Krispy Kreme has grown from a homespun Southern establishment with 140 stores to one with 218 locations in 33 states and Canada. At the time, however, training store managers was a trouble spot for Thornton and her training staff of three. Despite the last-minute scramble, Management 101 was ready to go live on April 5, 2000 - the day the IPO hot light went on. Today, new managers go through a 14-week program, most of which is spent in one of the company's 25 certified training stores. The training staff has been pleased with the results thus far.
