Another business is closing in South MS. Here’s what happened to this sweet place
AI-generated summary reviewed by our newsroom.
- Road construction near U.S. 49 hurt customer access to Crumbl Cookies Gulfport.
- Crumbl Gulfport will close on Sept. 13, while the D’Iberville store stays open.
- Since 2017, Crumbl expanded rapidly to over 1,000 stores across North America.
A busy location near Sam’s Club and The Crossroads in Gulfport seems like the ideal place for a bakery shop, but it was just the opposite.
Months of construction on the roads at U.S. 49 and Daniel Boulevard, north of I-10, made it hard for customers to get to Crumbl Cookies.
Instead of a quick stop at the bakery shop at 15520 Daniel Blvd. on the way to work or home, people were stuck in traffic or bypassed the gourmet cookies altogether.
A sign posted on the door says Saturday, Sept. 13, will be the last day for Crumbl and their cookies, pies, cakes and other desserts, a date a staff member at the Gulfport store confirmed.
The Gulfport franchise opened in late 2021 and a second location at The Promenade in D’Iberville followed in spring 2022.
The D’Iberville store will remain open.
The first Crumbl opened in 2017, and the company became one of the fastest-growing dessert franchise stores in the country. It has over 1,000 stores in all 50 states, Canada and Puerto Rico, according to the company website.
Crumbl stores have an open kitchen that lets people see the entire cookie-making process. They started with their award-winning milk chocolate chip cookies that always are available, added confetti cookies with sprinkles and other favorites, and introduce specialty flavors that change every week.
Customers can order cookies online, pick up curbside, have cookies catered, delivered locally or shipped.
