Avid fans of astronomy and donuts are sure to rejoice with the latest Krispy Kreme promotion that's offering free Original Glazed doughnuts in celebration of a big announcement in the science community. The promotion is taking place for one day only -- Friday, May 13, 2022 -- and only requires consumers to visit their nearest location to enjoy an Original Glazed donut at no charge. The promotion comes in celebration of the first-ever image of a supermassive blackhole released earlier this week, which features a donut-shaped profile.
The Krispy Kreme promotion comes as a very timely marketing initiative that takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to capturing the attention of consumers. The promotion is likely to increase brand recognition amongst new and existing patrons.
