DALLAS, June 27, 2023 (VSNewsNetwork.com) - Pizza Inn, a well-known American Hometown Pizza Buffet, has opened its first franchise restaurant in New Zealand in partnership with Ginny Singh, the Principal Master Licensee and Development Partner. The restaurant chain, renowned for its signature pizzas, pastas, wings, salads, and desserts for delivery and carryout, plans to establish ten Pizza Inn locations in Auckland over the next three years, with a specific focus on expansion in Manukau, Henderson, and Albany.

This strategic move by Pizza Inn highlights the company's commitment to broadening its brand through its proven buffet-style restaurant model, appealing to franchise investors worldwide. With a new prototype and visual identity, consistent profitability over twelve quarters, positive net growth of buffet units, and rising sales, Pizza Inn has captured the attention of franchisees globally.

Brandon Solano, President and CEO of RAVE Restaurant Group (NASDAQ: RAVE), the parent company of Pizza Inn, expressed his confidence in the brand's enduring appeal, stating, "Our restaurants have been called 'Hometown Pizza' for more than sixty years. That's because we know how to consistently deliver a memorable dining experience. No matter where you are in the world, you can appreciate a place to gather with friends and family to enjoy delicious, high-quality food and feel like you're at home - without having to do the dishes."

Ginny Singh, with extensive hospitality experience and ownership of Takapuna's Al Forno, an Italian restaurant and pizzeria, shared her enthusiasm for the partnership, emphasizing Pizza Inn's commitment to quality and her vision of establishing at least thirty Pizza Inn locations throughout New Zealand.

The new Pizza Inn restaurant in Mount Wellington offers an array of classic and local favorite pizzas, catering to the diverse tastes of customers. The establishment employs fifteen Aucklanders and operates from 11:00 am to 10:00 pm, seven days a week.
