New franchisees spend one week in a store where we cover every aspect of their new business, including making the pizza, preparing and serving Pizza Cat products, managing inventory and supporting their business through savvy marketing. Then, new franchisees will attend in classroom training at Pizza Cat in Toledo Ohio.
Franchisees spend 40 hours in a store to learn the ins and outs of the business, including how to correctly prepare and serve the brand’s products. Pizza Cat also hosts monthly check-ins to help you meet your goals, to offer assistance and to ensure you have all the tools necessary to improve your business every day.
Pizza Matt grew up on a military base and found himself selling hot dogs. He had never been one to just ring up sales. Matt was the “PT Barnum” of hot dog sales. He even sold hot dogs to people that didn’t like hot dogs! He made all kinds of hot dogs; he was really a hot dog artist.
But then it happened; the base decided to open a pizza joint. That was the start of Matt’s passion for pizza. Creative pizza, artistic pizza, weird (but crazy good!) pizza!
Matt ran both operations, and his passion for crazy good pizza grew. Matt explored several other endeavors, including being a sandwich artist at Subway, but he couldn’t fight his passion for pizza. He finally decided to help a local operator out with a chain of pizza shops in Toledo, Ohio, even though he lived in Detroit…but hey, what’s an hour drive when it comes to your true love?!?!
Matt decided to read the book about the godfather of pizza in Detroit – Pizza Tiger. To say he was inspired is about as big of an understatement as you can imagine. Days later, he decided to set his creative artisan self free. Free from the bonds of the normal and embrace his weird and his love for pizza.
With dreams of Ramen Noodle and Slim Jim pizza Matt decided to build his own restaurant, and the name was obvious to him, Pizza Cat – a nod to the Tiger. This would be a no judgment pizza place. Not interested in the “Italian style”, Matt set out to be the best “American style” pizza on earth.
The awesome pizza–baked in a true pie pan, free of a big doughy crust. Tasty sauce, cheese, and an unbelievable choice of toppings, from the standard to the weird!
Matt has charted a course share his love for creating mouthwatering, crave-worthy pizza through a nationwide (heck, maybe even worldwide or universe-wide!) chain of independently owned and operated local shops, all with a unique design and darn good pizza, with a support structure he wished he had when he started on this long and crazy road.
