Krispy Kreme opening date in Hamilton finally revealed
Krispy Kreme Canada will be opening its
long-awaited Rymal Road East location
on May 13, according to a news release. The Spectator first reported on the new store back in January 2024.
The location, spanning roughly 4,600 square feet, will feature a drive-thru window as well as a theatre area, which will allow customers to watch the doughnuts being made fresh, noted the release.
'Hamilton has such an incredible sense of community, pride, and momentum and we're thrilled to become a part of it,' said Chris Lindsay, co-CEO at Krispy Kreme Canada, in a statement.
The new location marks 'another step' in the multinational doughnut and coffee chain's growth in Ontario, noted the release.
The shop will host a grand opening event on May 13, which will include giveaways for guests who line up bright and early.
The company has started hiring for the location. Those looking to join the team can check

Krispy Kreme has more than a dozen locations across Canada. For many years, the closest to Hamilton was in Mississauga.

The Spectator to double print for U.S. edition
The Spectator's U.S. edition plans to double its print output to 24 issues annually as part of a broader relaunch this fall, its deputy editor Kate Andrews tells Axios. Why it matters: It's part of an industrywide print revival in the U.S. as publishers look for more ways to upsell jaded digital advertisers in the AI era. It also comes after other U.K.-based publishers like The Guardian, Reach, Financial Times, Hello! magazine, The Sun and The Daily Mail look to expand deeper into the U.S. Zoom in: For The Spectator, which launched a U.S. print version in 2019, reader demand for more print products has been significant, per Andrews. "We find that when we offer print as part of a package (or events for our subscribers), it tends to attract new readers," Andrews said. In addition to doubling its subscription print offering, The Spectator U.S. will also bring its print product to newsstands this fall. Between the lines: For advertisers, subscription print magazines offer a highly engaged audience that's hard to come by in the AI era. Like other digital-first outlets, The Spectator U.S. has seen advertising demand increase as the digital universe becomes crowded. "We do find that in marketing, some kind of print product helps us in every other aspect," Andrews said, referring to the ability to upsell advertisers. Zoom out: Andrews said the outlet has upsized its New York and Washington, D.C., offices in preparation for a significant increase in hiring and events. The big picture: Several publishers, including The Onion, The Cut, Complex, Nylon, Spin, Us Weekly, Swimming World, Sports Illustrated, Saveur and Ebony, have all launched or relaunched print editions amid reader and advertiser demand.

Starbucks, Krispy Kreme, Noodles, Shake Shack, and Bloomin' Brands Stocks Trade Up, What You Need To Know
What Happened? A number of stocks jumped in the morning session after investors cheered a government report showing that inflation remained steady in July. The steady inflation figures have fueled expectations that the Federal Reserve may soon consider an interest rate cut to stimulate the economy, a move that would likely benefit consumer discretionary spending, including dining out. The July Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 2.7% from a year earlier, meeting the previous month's pace and coming in slightly below economists' expectations of a 2.8% increase. On a monthly basis, the CPI rose 0.2%, a slowdown from the 0.3% increase seen in June. While the cost of dining out continued to climb, rising 0.3% in July, this was offset by a 0.1% dip in grocery prices, contributing to the overall stable inflation picture. The market's positive reaction sent major stock indexes, including the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite, soaring. This optimism spilled over into the restaurant sector, which has been grappling with a challenging macroeconomic environment marked by high costs and concerns over consumer traffic. The stock market overreacts to news, and big price drops can present good opportunities to buy high-quality stocks. Among others, the following stocks were impacted: Traditional Fast Food company Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) jumped 3.4%. Is now the time to buy Starbucks? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Traditional Fast Food company Krispy Kreme (NASDAQ:DNUT) jumped 5.9%. Is now the time to buy Krispy Kreme? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Modern Fast Food company Noodles (NASDAQ:NDLS) jumped 6%. Is now the time to buy Noodles? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Modern Fast Food company Shake Shack (NYSE:SHAK) jumped 3.1%. Is now the time to buy Shake Shack? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Sit-Down Dining company Bloomin' Brands (NASDAQ:BLMN) jumped 3.6%. Is now the time to buy Bloomin' Brands? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Zooming In On Noodles (NDLS) Noodles's shares are extremely volatile and have had 81 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today's move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. The previous big move we wrote about was 5 days ago when the stock gained 3% on the news that the company announced a change in leadership and postponed its second-quarter earnings report. The fast-casual restaurant chain appointed Joseph D. Christina as its new President and CEO, following the resignation of Drew Madsen for personal medical reasons. In conjunction with the leadership news, the company also rescheduled its second-quarter 2025 financial results conference call, pushing it from August 6th to August 13th. The sudden executive change combined with the delayed financial update likely created uncertainty among investors. This news also followed a period where earnings per share estimates experienced several downward revisions. Noodles is up 70.2% since the beginning of the year, but at $1 per share, it is still trading 41.5% below its 52-week high of $1.71 from August 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Noodles's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $121.36. Unless you've been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business.

Today kicks off Krispy Kreme's most fleeting treat of the year
'Pumpkin spice fans are counting down the days to their favorite season and we're happy to kick it off by bringing back our Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed doughnut – earlier and for a longer period,' said Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme Chief Brand and Product Officer. 'But it won't be around long. Let Pumpkin Spice Season begin!' Pumpkin Spice won't go away forever on Friday. Krispy Kreme has also brought back its Pumpkin Spice Latte, Pumpkin Spice Coffee (hot or cold), as well as its Pumpkin Spice Cake doughnut. All three will be available throughout the fall starting Aug. 11. In a recent announcement, the doughnut giant said its Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed doughnut will be available Aug. 11 through Aug. 17. So, those who want to get their hands on the fall favorite will have one week to snag it. Krispy Kreme is not the only fast food restaurant getting an early jump on Pumpkin Spice season. Starbucks already announced its PSL (Pumpkin Spice Latte) would return earlier than usual this year, too. While it usually doesn't hit the menu until September, this year the drink is back on Aug. 26. Starbucks said in the announcement that the flavor is already available in stores in the form of coffees and creamers. Dunkin is about to drop its fall menu, as well, according to Markie Devo, a popular food blogger who is known for having the inside scoop on food releases. The drop is said to be scheduled for Aug. 20 (Dunkin hasn't confirmed or denied the menu or launch date) and, according to Devo, will include Pumpkin Spice Doughnuts, doughnut holes, as well as the Pumpkin Spice Signature Latte, made with 'pumpkin swirl, vanilla shot, milk, espresso, whipped cream, caramel drizzle, cinnamon sugar.' Love it or hate it, the return of Pumpkin Spice offerings is always highly anticipated. And in recent years, the popularity of the flavor has meant its return has come earlier and earlier. The pumpkin pie spice market is projected to reach $1.1 billion this year, with a predicted growth to $2.2 billion by 2032, according to Coherent Market Insights. While summer might feel a tad too early to enjoy Pumpkin flavors for some, and others say climate change has destroyed Pumpkin Spice Season altogether, the flavor hitting menus does serve as a reminder that colder weather is on its way. But for some die-hard Pumpkin Spicers, the doughnuts and drinks bring back the feeling that fall has already arrived, no matter what the calendar says.
