Randy’s Donuts: Our Story

Founded in 1952 in Inglewood, California, Randy’s Donuts quickly gained fame for its giant rooftop donut and top-quality treats. The brand has been featured in numerous movies and TV shows. It has become a cultural icon and one of the world’s most recognizable donut shops.

We proudly serve up some of the world’s BEST donuts, backed by 70 years of donut-making experience, secret recipes, unique cooking methods, the highest quality premium ingredients, and a focus on fresh, never frozen, handmade goodness.

In 2015, the Kelegian family took ownership and brought expertise from the food and entertainment industries to elevate our brand. Under their leadership, we modernized operations while preserving the charm that made Randy’s a beloved name for decades.

Randy’s Donuts is making waves, ranking #161 in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 2025 listing of the Top 500 Franchises! We were also listed in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 2024 rankings, landing at #36 in the Top 200 Global and securing the #3 spot for New & Emerging Brands!

Now, Randy’s Donuts is expanding globally through a carefully crafted hub-and-spoke franchise model ideal for multi-unit investors. Each new donut franchise we open continues our storied tradition of serving exceptional food and drink while sharing a piece of the brand’s iconic history.
