Who Makes The Perfect Your Pie Franchise?
Pizza is one of the most popular foods in the world, so if you have decided to open a pizza franchise, you’re in good company. With many options available to you, Your Pie is proud to be the first ever quick casual pizza franchise committed to making your business a success. If you already know what you’re looking for in a franchise, you may now be wondering: what makes you an ideal franchisee?
Pizza Lovers Wanted
This may seem like a no-brainer, but the perfect Your Pie franchisee will be a huge pizza fan! This is true for almost any franchisee or worker: the more passionate you feel about the product you’re selling, the more likely you are to succeed. Your Pie was born out of that very passion in 2006, when founder Drew French was visiting his wife’s family on the Italian island of Ischia. He fell in love with the region’s use of brick ovens and fresh, local ingredients to create the most delicious pizzas imaginable. He recognized the value of enjoying handmade meals with friends and family, and brought what he learned back to the States to launch Your Pie two years later.
Every Your Pie franchise across the United States operates with the same mission: do every small thing with passion and greatness. Franchisees who believe in this mission and share our values will undoubtedly succeed with Your Pie.
Core Values
Your Pie seeks franchisee candidates who know that a pizza restaurant can be so much more than a convenient dinner option. With Your Pie, food definitely comes first. We pride ourselves on creating the best pizza, chopped salads, panini, gelato, and a carefully curated list of craft beer and wine to give our customers the most delectable experience. The quality of our product is of the utmost importance, and all of our success is a testament to our attention to detail.
We encourage our franchisees to select and train team members the Your Pie way, creating an environment where everyone is enthusiastic about turning every new diner into a Your Pie enthusiast. We believe that providing customers with the best experience possible will create long lasting relationships. A happy team attracts happy customers, building sustainable success.
Believing in innovation is another key. The ability to adapt, grow, and embrace new ideas is fundamental to Your Pie’s success. Our ideal franchisee is always open to listen and learn.
We believe in supporting our communities, both locally and nationally. By being leaders in the restaurant world, we seek to improve the lives of everyone in our communities. At Your Pie, community means more than just the place where we live. It’s the feeling you get when gathering with friends and family, coming together to enjoy a meal. It’s the sense of pride you feel through providing hospitality.
Leadership Abilities
The ideal Your Pie franchisee thinks like a leader, is likely already involved with schools, clubs, and other local organizations, and is looking to make their restaurant an integral asset to the community. Previous restaurant experience isn’t required to become a franchisee, and our partners and team members come from all walks of life. The key to success comes from the ability to lead team members effectively and inspire passion by serving as a role model at every level.
Teamwork Makes The Dream Work
The success of each Your Pie franchise relies heavily on the strength of its team. We look for franchisees who don’t take the leadership role lightly, and are able to train, encourage and inspire their team members to do their best every day. Our franchisees are eager to implement the tools and training guidance provided by the Your Pie system, and are always looking for new ways to improve.
Financial Qualifications
All restaurant franchises have varying restrictions and requirements one must meet to buy into the brand. At Your Pie, our prospective franchisees must have a net wort of 500k, 150k of which is liquid. Estimated initial investment will include initial franchise fee, fixtures and equipment, opening inventory and more.
