Franchise Summary
Description
Blaze Pizza restaurants feature build-your-own, artisan style pizzas that are made to order and related food and drink items. The franchisor also offers Blaze Pizza Restaurants in non-traditional locations. They offer area development franchises for the rights to open multiple Restaurants in a designated area. Area developers sign individual franchise agreements for each Restaurant. The franchisor primarily offers Area Development Franchises but they may offer single Restaurant franchises in certain situations (such as Non-Traditional Restaurants).
Company Background
Blaze Pizza is a fresh, fast-casual pizza restaurant that makes delicious personal pizzas with artisan style dough and signature sauces. Blaze Pizza restaurants provide free unlimited toppings. The company was founded by Rick Wetzel, who has been in the pizza business for over 40 years, co-founded Wetzel's Pretzels; Toms of Maine; and Cinnabon. Blaze Pizza is on a mission to make delicious food more accessible to everyone - one hot oven at a time!
Franchise Opportunity
You want a hot, delicious pizza but don't have the time to wait for it. The problem is that most restaurants take too long to prepare and deliver your food. This can be frustrating when you are hungry and in a hurry. Blaze Pizza is different because we make our pizzas fast! We cook them in an 800-degree oven which makes our pizzas ready within 3 minutes of ordering them. Our fresh ingredients are all made daily, including hand stretched dough, freshly grated cheese and zesty tomato sauce with no artificial flavors or preservatives added. We also offer gluten free crusts for those who need it! Ordering your pizza at Blaze Pizza is easy; just pick what you want on your custom-built pie then pay at the counter before heading over to the pickup area where they will call out your name once it's done (no waiting). If you prefer delivery there's an app for that as well!
