Yum-Yum Donuts
Yum-Yum Donuts is a chain of donut shops based in California, founded in 1971 by Phillip C. Holland. The original location, at Avenue 26 and Figueroa Street in the Cypress Park district of Los Angeles, California is still in operation. Holland expanded to three shops by 1973, and in 2004 Yum-Yum Donuts bought Winchell's which opened 70 donuts shops ready for operation. Together, Yum-Yum and Winchell's are the West Coast's largest donut shop chain. Both are headquartered in the City of Industry, California.
