Drop By Dough: Thailand’s Doughnut Sensation Makes Sweet International Debut in Hong Kong

Drop By Dough, a renowned doughnut brand from Thailand, has launched its first international outlet in Hong Kong.

Store Design and Location

Situated in Central Hong Kong, the shop’s interior combines terracotta tiles and wooden furniture to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The founders aim to provide a haven of relaxation where customers can momentarily escape the frenetic pace of the city while indulging in freshly made doughnuts and coffee.

Origins of Drop By Dough

Drop By Dough was established in Bangkok in December 2019 by Narongrit Sritalanon and Chalermphol Akkarapinyokul. The brand was born out of their mutual love for visiting doughnut shops during their travels.

Expansion to Hong Kong

Arnold Lau, associate director-general of investment promotion at InvestHK, commented that Drop By Dough’s decision to choose Hong Kong as their first international location further cements the city’s status as a leading hub for global retailers. He also expressed InvestHK’s eagerness to support Drop By Dough’s development and success.

Product Offering

Drop By Dough takes pride in crafting their doughnuts every day using a blend of international and native ingredients. Their signature varieties include Raspberry Rose, Classic Vanilla, Nutella Hazelnut, and Kyoto Matcha & Red Bean.

Special flavors unique to the Hong Kong branch include Pistachioooooo – a doughnut filled with pistachio custard and topped with roasted pistachios – and Mango Kati, which features a distinctive Thai flavor profile.
