Dunkin’, the ubiquitous coffee and donut restaurant chain with locations across the nation and South Carolina, is bringing a new location to Clemson Road, according to a recent social media post from construction firm Mimms Contracting. Photos in the social media post show the Dunkin’ will be on an outparcel at the Magnolia Pointe shopping center at 2000 Clemson Road.
That shopping center, which is near the intersection of Clemson and Hard Scrabble roads, includes a Dollar Tree, a Hibbett Sports and other businesses.
“Mimms Contracting is excited to be working on the new Dunkin’ location coming to Clemson Road!,” the contracting company said on Facebook. “Site work is underway, and things are officially starting to take shape. There’s a lot that happens before the walls ever go up, and our team is hard at work laying the groundwork for what’s to come.”
