Seasoned Multi-Unit Operator Signs Mega Deal with Eggs Up Grill

Alliance Food Group just signed the largest deal in the history of Eggs Up Grill. The company’s owners, Ron Donaldson and his son Ron, Jr., are now set to open 30 Eggs Up Grill restaurants in the Dallas-Fort Worth market beginning in the Spring of 2023.

“My first impression after visiting Eggs Up Grill was that it was a locally-owned breakfast spot that was genuine and inviting,” said Ron Donaldson. “After realizing it was a franchise, I had to know more.”

The Donaldsons bring prior franchising experience to the deal. Along with their partners in Alliance Food Group, they previously owned more than a dozen restaurants, including multiple  Subway and Checkers locations, and several local, family-style restaurants in Florida, Georgia, and Maryland. They also had an operations agreement to manage Burger King franchises in several markets.

The Donaldsons now call Dallas home and have chosen to make their return to restaurant franchising in the growing market with the new Eggs Up Grill development agreement. 

“Eggs Up Grill is disrupting the breakfast space with a brand that still values the guest and sees them as a family member - from price point to the service of the dish - the guest is family,” adds Donaldson.

Eggs Up Grill now has 57 restaurants in a half dozen southeast states. Another 10 restaurants are set to open before the end of the year, and there are 20 more in the pipelines for 2023.
