Krispy Kreme Doughnuts is to open a branch in York.

The company, which started in America, announced on Tuesday that it had a site at York Designer Outlet and would be opening on November 4.

The company's openings elsewhere in the UK have often attracted huge crowds. When the firm opened its first Glasgow branch last December, some people queued overnight in the cold for more than eight hours to be the first customers.

At the opening on the outskirts of Edinburgh in 2013, there were long tailbacks on the M8 motorway between Edinburgh and Glasgow, due to the extent of demand.
