Business

Last week's trivia answer

The chain that shares my name was started in 1950 in Quincy, Mass., and is today the world's largest coffee and baked goods chain, serving more than 3 million customers each day in nearly 9,000 eateries. Given my name, you'd think that doughnuts would account for more than a sixth of my sales. I also own the Baskin-Robbins ice cream business, which includes roughly 6,000 franchises. I recently made all my menu items trans-fat-free. I rake in about $7 billion globally, but you can't buy stock in me, because I'm owned by some privateequity outfits. Who am I?

( Answer: Dunkin' Brands )
