Established in 1905 in Kobe, Hyogo prefecture, DONQ Boulangerie is a French-style bakery chain which has expanded to over 140 outlets across Asia like: Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China (run by franchises) and Thailand.

DONQ was founded in 1905 in Kobe, Japan. [1]
DONQ has been part of Bakery Scan's bread identification scanner system trial since September 2012, [4] a camera software that identifies the bread based on image recognition and lists the price on the cashier. [5]
In Aug 2018, DONQ (Japanese bakery) filed their logo trademark [6] 7 years after it was opposed by Don Q (a Puerto Rico-based rum maker company) who argued that the similarities in their name would cause confusion. [7] [8]
