Krispy Kreme history

Krispy Kreme was founded in 1937 by Vernon Rudolph, who, according to the company, began selling doughnuts to grocery stores. His doughnuts became so popular that Rudolph eventually cut a hole in an outside wall and began selling Original Glazed doughnuts directly to customers on the sidewalk.
