  • Section I – Background information on the Your Pie franchise opportunity, including relevant news updates
  • Section II – Estimated initial investment for a Your Pie franchise, based on Item 7 of the company’s 2015 FDD

Section I – Background Information

While down-the-line fast-casual pizza restaurants are now popping up all over the place, Your Pie founder Drew French says the concept originated in Athens, Georgia, when he was inspired to try his hand at the Italian approach to pizza baked in brick ovens.

His ideas are strongly rooted in the Italian tradition to which he was exposed when visiting his wife’s family on the island of Ischia during their honeymoon in 2006. He was impressed with how quickly custom, artisan pies could be assembled and cooked by using high-temperature brick ovens.

The first location was established in 2008 in Athens, Georgia, which remains the company’s headquarters today. The décor of its stores blends “old Italian” style with a more modern, hipster approach.

Scattered mostly throughout the Southeast, there are currently 21 Your Pie locations in Georgia (15), South Carolina (2), Florida (3), and Tennessee (1).

Here’s how Your Pizza fires things up at its restaurants:

Your Pie, Your Way

The pizza assembly line at Your Pie has plenty of choices for patrons to make, including the dough (white, wheat, or gluten-free), the sauce (BBQ, Basil, Pesto, Garlic Olive Oil, Hot, Marinara, Ranchy Marinara, Sundried Tomato, Thai), the cheese (Cheddar, Feta, Fresh Mozzarella (circles), Gorgonzola, Low Fat Mozzarella, Mozzarella, Parmesan, Provolone, Ricotta, Vegan Cheese) and more than 35 different fresh and premium toppings.

Freedom from Choice

Some customers just can’t handle all those choices, so they can also select from among the chain’s seven signature pies and its Pie of the Year. The current favorites always available include:

Expansion Plans

The company’s website currently lists the following “coming soon” locations: Chicago, Illinois (7); Ft. Lauderdale, Florida; Richmond, Virginia; Tallahassee, Florida; Norfolk/Virginia Beach, Virginia (6); Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (3); Houston, Texas; and Scottsdale, Arizona. That’s 21 new locations to come online soon.

Creative Pi

One of the chain’s recent creative promotions comes with the tagline of what goes better with a Pie than a Pint? At participating locations on Thursday nights, patrons can purchase a pint of craft beer for $3.14 – the price of pi.

Ordering a pint of the location’s selected brew of the month allows patrons to take their pint glass with them when they leave. Diners can also join the Pi(e)nt Club to earn a free entrée after accumulating ten purchases of pints.

Fresh Offerings

In addition to its creative pi promotions, Your Pie also comes up with a variety of limited time offerings, such as its launching of the seasonal Craft Pie Series.

Its most recent roll-out to celebrate its 7th anniversary was the new Maple Bacon Gelato pizza, as well as a revival of its popular Slider Pie (hand-tossed dough topped with roasted garlic olive oil, white cheddar cheese, meatballs, red onions, pickles, and yellow mustard).
