When Jesus [Martinez] and I were interested in diversifying with a new brand, Pizza Factory stood out to us. Their existing California fanbase, continued commitment to innovation and hands-on corporate team were all aspects that we were searching for with our next brand. Given our experience with restaurant operations, we’re confident Pizza Factory’s Express model will perform well in the market with its seamless approach to off-premise dining.

I love everything about Pizza Factory and expanding my portfolio with the brand was an easy decision. With innovation constantly on our minds at Pizza Factory, I saw an opportunity to take over an existing location that has already established itself within its community.

Multi-Unit Franchisee
I’ve always had a love for the pizza space and knew I wanted to open my own pizzeria one day. Upon searching for a brand to become an owner with, Pizza Factory stood out to me because of its freshly prepared products, community connections and attractive build out options. I instantly saw the brand’s potential for growth and the opportunity owners have to become multi-unit operators, which is something I’m definitely excited about.

Pizza Factory has been more than just a business for me—it’s been a lifelong journey of growth, resilience, and community. From the moment I opened my first location, I knew this brand was something special. Over the years, I’ve embraced new technologies, adapted to industry changes, and built lasting relationships with customers who feel like family. But what truly sets Pizza Factory apart is its commitment to the communities we serve. Whether it’s supporting local schools or mentoring future franchisees, this brand has given me the platform to make a real difference, and I couldn’t be prouder to be part of it.

When looking into franchising, I knew it was important to find a brand that aligned with our values and desired structure. We wanted to be owner-operators and have an opportunity to be involved with our local community. Pizza Factory hit all the marks for my father and I.

As a veteran, I’ve always valued teamwork and community, and I found that with Pizza Factory since the beginning. From day one, they’ve supported my vision of building something lasting for my family and our town. After nearly 40 years, I’m proud to say we’ve grown with the brand, while staying rooted in the communities we serve.

I’ve been with Pizza Factory since the ’80s, and it’s been one of the most rewarding decisions I’ve ever made. Being your own boss, staying close to your community, and having the freedom to never miss a family moment – that’s what it’s all about. The corporate team has always had my back and continues to bring fresh ideas to support us. If you’re committed and hands-on, this is a great brand to build a legacy with.
