Eggs Up Grill Expands Its Franchise Network with New Openings and Agreements in Q1 of 2025

Eggs Up Grill, renowned as the fastest-growing “better breakfast” restaurant franchise in the United States, has kicked off 2025 with impressive growth and expansion in its franchise network. In the first quarter alone, the brand launched five new locations and signed agreements that signify strong momentum for the future.

The new restaurants opened in five different cities: Athens, Alabama; Melbourne, Florida; McDonough, Georgia; Indian Trail, North Carolina; and Cleveland, Tennessee. This latest growth has elevated the total number of Eggs Up Grill locations to an impressive 94 across the country.

One of the most notable highlights from Q1 is the multi-brand development deal that positions Eggs Up Grill for its debut in the Pennsylvania market. This agreement outlines plans for at least four locations in the eastern region of Pennsylvania over the next four years, signaling a key step as Eggs Up Grill expands its footprint beyond the Southeast.

A crucial component of this growth is the involvement of multi-unit developers who bring not only operational expertise but also a commitment to maintaining brand integrity during the expansion process. This quarter, the franchise also secured agreements for additional locations, including a single-unit deal in James Island, SC, a three-unit deal in the Lake Charles, LA and Beaumont, TX areas, and a two-unit deal focused on the Macon/Warner Robins, GA market. These initial locations are set to open between late 2025 and early 2026, further establishing an influential presence for Eggs Up Grill in previously untapped areas.

Ricky Richardson, CEO of Eggs Up Grill, expressed excitement about the positive trajectory of the brand. He noted, "This year is off to a great start thanks to the strength of our franchise community and the demand we continue to see for our high-quality, better breakfast concept. With experienced operators joining our ranks, we’re seeing significant scalability regarding our ability to deliver consistent service and culinary excellence."

In the past year, Eggs Up Grill opened 22 new restaurants, a move that has clearly outpaced competitors in the breakfast restaurant sector. The brand remains focused on welcoming new franchise operators who share a passion for community service and exceptional food experiences. Eggs Up Grill's model prioritizes hospitality, simplicity, and efficiency, elements that resonate with both franchisees and guests alike.

As the brand continues its trajectory for growth in 2025, Eggs Up Grill plans to focus not only on expanding its physical locations but also on enhancing guest experience and fostering franchisee success. With more than 170 locations either operational or under development, the franchise stands as an attractive opportunity for both seasoned entrepreneurs and those looking to own their first business.
