Pizza Inn - Franchise
America's Hometown Pizza Buffet
Your Future Made the Way You Want It
Opening a Pizza Inn is unlike any other franchise opportunity. When you become a franchisee, you’re opening more than a restaurant. Pizza Inn is a gathering place in many of the communities we call home.
This commitment is something we at Pizza Inn take seriously. We believe that pizza is an opportunity to put a smile on every face. Our business model is designed to maximize that.
Why Invest in Hometown American?
For Pizza Inn, Hometown America is a network of real places that dot the landscape across the Southern US. Almost always outside the major metros but often in adjacent counties, including secondary cities and towns often overlooked or underserved by corporate food service brands.
But beyond that, hometown is an ideal, a place that virtually everyone carries somewhere within them. Becoming the preferred gathering place in your town provides value that brands based on in-and-out transaction models can’t match. This is why we say Pizza Inn “gets” hometown. Its people and its pulse.
We believe Hometown America is a vision worth investing in. Our mission is to make it both personally fulfilling and financially rewarding.
Why Invest in Pizza?
Pizza has long demonstrated the ability to unite people across the lines of geography, culture, and generation. It has proven resilience across the ups and downs of business cycles.
83% of consumers eat pizza at least once a month.
Why Invest in a Buffet Concept?
People don’t like to be told what they can and cannot have, especially when it comes to food. Pizza Inn’s buffet gives guests something different: Variety.
Instead of having to order a whole pizza, they can get a slice of anything they want. The buffet is an opportunity for Pizza Inn to offer greater innovation in product offerings.
A buffet with fresh ingredients at one inclusive price is a huge value proposition.
