Dunkin' is bringing a new lineup to stores nationwide at the end of September, and it's not coffee.
Dunkin' will launch limited-edition L.L.Bean merchandise
, including a co-branded sweater and tote bag, on National Coffee Day, Sept. 29. The companies are also introducing miniature coffee-cup accessories tied to the collection. The mini sweaters may already be familiar to customers who have spotted them in stores or on social media.The two brands have deep New England roots: L.L.Bean was founded in 1912 in Freeport, Maine, while Dunkin' began in 1950 in Quincy, Massachusetts.
"L.L.Bean and Dunkin' are iconic brands that have called New England home for decades," Nick Wilkoff, chief marketing officer at L.L.Bean, said in a statement. "We wanted
to create something that feels familiar and fun, bringing a touch of Dunkin' to two L.L.Bean favorites that have been a part of people's fall traditions for generations."
