The franchise system, renamed TBG Food Acquisition Corp., consists of twenty locations, including several Dunkin’ Donuts / Baskin Robbins combination locations, primarily located in Westchester County, New York.

The Beekman Group’s CEO, John G. Troiano, commented “we are thrilled to establish a partnership with Dunkin’ Brands, one of the world’s most recognizable brands. We are more than consumers of Dunkin’s products – we are believers in Dunkin’ Brands and its future growth plans. This is a brand with significant momentum and a very bright future.” The stores included in the transaction are located in several communities within Westchester County, including Goldensbridge, Harrison, Hartsdale, White Plains and Yonkers.
