MarketWatch:
Pizza Inn, Inc. has announced plans to expand its fast-casual concept, Pie Five Pizza Co., targeting eight additional new locations in Dallas-Fort Worth over the next nine months and continuing development of up to 15 more Company-owned restaurants over the next 18 to 24 months. The Company also expects to begin awarding franchises in October 2011 in top tier markets throughout the U.S.
The announcement comes after a successful opening of the first Pie Five(TM) restaurant last June at 2600 W. 7th Street in Forth Worth, Texas.
“We feel that we have fine-tuned a successful restaurant concept with our first location, and we are quickly moving to take advantage of that success in other areas throughout the DFW Metroplex,” said Charlie Morrison, CEO of Pizza Inn, who is leading the initiative.
