Mazzio's Pizza

The pizza and pasta categories has been two of the fastest growing food service segments over the last 10 years. The average American eats pizza or pasta two to three times a month. Just over a third of the U.S. population eat pizza or pasta once a week (source: National Eating Trends). The unique taste of our products, along with our knowledge and experience in the foodservice industry, has enabled us to develop an operating system and franchise opportunity that are as carefully planned and harmonious as the ambiance in each Mazzio’s Italian Eatery restaurant. Mazzio’s not only franchises Mazzio’s restaurants, but also operates Mazzio’s restaurants. This makes us a participating party in the ongoing develop-ment of the concept. We believe in the long-term opportunities offered by the foodservice industry and Mazzio’s.
