Meet Michael Gallegos, business owner, veteran, father, and now… Franchisor!
Desert Donuts, an Arizona-based donut shop was established in 2013. Michael took over Desert Donuts in 2023, but he wasn’t alone in this journey. His 11-year-old daughter, Gracee, has been by his side, helping with the business and getting a front-row seat to entrepreneurship in action.
Together, they’ve turned a small Arizona donut shop into a nationwide expansion plan, proving that there truly is no age limit when it comes to business.
Desert Donuts isn't just a donut shop — it's an experience.
Desert Donuts isn’t your average donut shop. It’s a coffee shop, breakfast spot, and dessert café all in one, built around a simple, efficient business model that customers and franchisees love.
Here’s what makes it stand out:
-
- Custom-made-to-order model: Fresh, hot donuts made right in front of the customer, reducing food waste to almost zero.
- Simple service model & low staffing: No complicated baking process, making it easy to run.
- Multi-revenue streams: Coffee, breakfast, and desserts mean steady sales all day long.
