Dunkin' Donuts is going after Krispy Kreme, right in its hometown of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Franchise operators for Massachusetts-based Dunkin' Donuts plan more than a dozen stores in the area over the next four years.

Sunny Patel plans five Dunkin' Donuts stores in northern Forsyth County. Sundeep Makhani told the Winston-Salem Journal he plans eight more stores in the area.

Krispy Kreme spokesman Brian Little wouldn't talk about Dunkin' Donuts, but did say Krispy Kreme thinks there's room for everyone.

Makhani says he thinks Dunkin' Donuts coffee is more important in attracting morning customers.
