Krispy Kreme will soon make a permanent home in Statesboro. A definite time frame has not been set, but Statesboro residents and Georgia Southern students can expect construction in the coming months, with a tentative fall opening.

The new restaurant will be located next to Taco Bell, taking the place of the temporary TitleMax building. The official address is 190 Northside Drive East.

The first 100 people in line for a Krispy Kreme grand opening always receive free donuts a year. Krispy Kreme will join Daylight Donuts and Dunkin Donuts currently in Statesboro, but will invade a corridor in Statesboro that is particularly void of the sweet treats.
