Brand overview
Donut Distillery is a gourmet mini donut franchise offering a diverse menu of specialty mini donuts, spiked milkshakes, coffees, and boozy treats in a vibrant, community-focused atmosphere. In 2017, President Shauna McCoy left her corporate career for an apron and a mixer, spending two years on the road before opening the first location in East Nashville. Thanks to the brand's popularity, fantastic service, and original concept, they are now ready to expand through franchising.
