National DCP Receives Dunkin’s Annual Partner of the Year Award

Dunkin’®, the world’s leading baked goods and coffee chain, named National DCP (NDCP) as their Partner of the Year at the Dunkin’ & Baskin-Robbins 2022 Global Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“National DCP has been an incredible partner from the very beginning, but the level of support they provided to the entire Dunkin’ system during the height of the pandemic took our partnership to a whole new level,” said Scott Murphy, President, Dunkin’. “During a truly unpredictable time, they helped us maintain the continuity of supply chain and control costs for franchisees, while providing excellent support for product launches and promotional windows. I can’t think of a better partner to celebrate.”

NDCP’s partnership with Dunkin’ has generated more than $1.3 billion in cost savings to the Dunkin’ system. These savings, coupled with an expertise in strategic sourcing, distribution, and supply chain business practices, have driven significant food cost reductions while ensuring the continuity of supply for Dunkin’ restaurants. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and worldwide supply chain disruptions, NDCP continued to assure supply and help alleviate price increases while simultaneously managing all the other suppliers to the Dunkin’ system and maintaining its key service metrics.

“We are deeply honored to win Dunkin’s Partner of the Year Award,” said Scott Carter, Chief Executive Officer of National DCP. “Strong collaboration with Dunkin’ and our entire supplier community is critical in delivering value to our cooperative’s membership. Our team members and supplier partners have worked tirelessly to deliver the best possible service at the lowest sustainable costs, which has been particularly challenging in recent times. We appreciate the continued opportunity to serve this iconic brand and look forward to the next decade of shared success.”
