Related: About this forumNorth Jersey Bakery will Churn out 1 million Doughnuts a Day for Mystery Buyer
I invite you to solve the identity of the mystery buyer. The clue is in the press release and it involves the spelling of a word. You will find the clue in the snipped paragraphs below.

Come next year, one Morris County town may be in line to vie for the title of "doughnut capital of America."
Rockaway Holding Group LLC recently announced that it had signed a 15-year lease for a 125,000-square-foot property on Green Pond Road in Rockaway Township, where it intends to produce "over 1 million donuts a day," a news release said. Foley would not reveal the name of the company that will sell the doughnuts but told the Daily Record, "These doughnuts are being manufactured for one company, one brand name."
The move marks a significant expansion for Rockaway Holding Group, which will transfer employees from Lodi and create new jobs in Rockaway Township. Overall, "hundreds" of employees will work at the site at 25 Green Pond Road, which is next to The Barn restaurant and near a Route 80 interchange.
"The building really checked a lot of boxes," Foley said. "It has heavy power coming in, which they require, also a significant portion of the building has air conditioning, which is required. The 300-car parking was also important for them to execute and expand their operation. They will be able to add a few loading docks. It's a great location." The 13.7-acre property is zoned for industrial use.

Regarding "The Barn," it is a very nice restaurant to which I would go when we had cybersleuth meetings back in the mid-nineties.

(38,337 posts)3. how they make the donuts
I did a little more looking around, and found this interesting link by the m'fr of the equipment. Want to see how a Dunkin' Donut is made? Watch this video, which is from when this American company had its facility in Lodi. The manufacturer of the equipment is in Switzerland. It looks like they make their facilities for cleanliness, with all that stainless steel:

I must admit, I was impressed.
