Dunkin’ Joins The Pickleball Craze With New Summer Merch
You know what would go great with your morning cold brew and glazed maple donut? Pickleball. At least, that’s what the folks over at Dunkin’ Donuts are thinking. Available for a limited time only, Dunkin’ has upped their summer merch game to include a pickleball set, beach towels, and an inflatable donut pool.
Dunkin’ isn’t the first company to pursue a quickly-emerging audience: Subway jumped on the bandwagon by offering the Pickleball Sub and even had Andy Roddick be the face of the campaign. Another restaurant owner went as far as to shut down her restaurant to pursue a career in competitive pickleball. The sport has been around for decades but picked up momentum during the pandemic as a simple-yet-strategic outdoor ball game.
The branded pickleball set includes two wooden paddles and two wiffle balls. To snag your sweet set of paddles and balls, or any other Dunkin’ summertime merch, click here and I’ll see you on the courts.
