Why Customizing Your Pizza Franchise Matters
Not all franchises have to be cookie cutter copies. Customizing your pizza franchise can add identity to your unique location. Learn how you can customize your franchise!
Set The Scene
Diners’ appreciation for customization extends beyond the menu. A customer’s experience with your restaurant begins the second they walk through the doors. The manner in which you arrange and decorate your store speaks volumes about what you have to offer. With over 78,000 pizza restaurants operating in the United States, it’s essential to distinguish your spot from the pack, not just to entice customers, but to maintain and communicate your message.
Floor Plan & Layout
Various elements factor in to ensure your customers’ positive dining experience. Beyond the food and service, the layout of your restaurant should facilitate a natural flow. The concept and theme of your restaurant will necessarily dictate the layout of your space; fine dining restaurants aim for extended seatings, while fast casual restaurants require a setup that facilitates a quicker pace.
The layout of a Your Pie restaurant is designed to accommodate a symbiotic flow between the customers and pizza makers. Customers are able to see all the fresh ingredients and watch as their pizzas are constructed and then passed into our wood-burning brick ovens, the central hearths of our restaurants. The process of being able to participate in the entire pizza-making process is one aspect of what makes a Your Pie restaurant so unforgettable.
Include Some Local Flavor
While all restaurants within a franchise system will share some fundamental design elements across the board, one way to customize your own space is to add some local flair. By featuring work from local artists or regionally characteristic design elements, you are finding special ways to engage with your community and display a sense of hometown pride. Furthermore, an “Instagram-worthy” mural or custom sign can attract new customers who learn about your restaurant through social media postings.
Haven’t You Heard?
An often-overlooked tool for restaurant customization is the music you choose to play through your space. While diners may not consciously notice what is coming through the speakers, the right music has the ability to set a mood. For a fast casual pizza restaurant, music with an up-tempo and energetic melody matches a bright and fun environment.
