On Friday, dozens of customers — even Libertyville Mayor Donna Johnson — gathered for a chance to try Duck Donuts, the first franchise in Illinois.
Anderson vividly remembers how she eagerly texted Osler about the donut shop in Naples, telling her she needed to taste them.Sure enough, when Osler arrived in Naples the next weekend, she agreed they’d chanced upon something special. Soon, they were researching the chain, which began in Duck, North Carolina, and now has over 100 locations, and were dreaming of opening their own franchise.
“We got back, we kept looking into , what were about, how involved they were with the community and we ran with it,” Osler said. Johnson said she has regularly seen a buzz around the business since its soft opening in mid-May, and added that she thinks Anderson and Osler are business owners who can contribute to a vibrant downtown Libertyville in the years to come.“To bring Duck Donuts here, which is a national chain and we’re the first in Illinois, it’s just a welcome opportunity,” Johnson said. “It’s thriving and doing very well. Every time I drive by, it’s packed.
As Libertyville resident Marley Herchenbach sat outside enjoying her Maple Bacon donut, she predicted she’d return to the shop regularly for its warm vibe and wide variety of options, which also includes sandwiches and coffee. “The community feel they have here and that level of support, they push for each other,” Anderson said. “And we’ve already seen it in the first couple of weeks we’ve been open. People from all the businesses around here stop in, introduce themselves. They want to come in and support.”
