Pizza Pizza Expands into British Columbia with First Location in New Westminster

VANCOUVER, Sept. 18, 2018 /CNW/ - Canada's leading pizza chain, Pizza Pizza has officially made its way to the West Coast with its first location now open at 527 Sixth Street in New Westminster. This recent opening marks the start of the pizza franchise's planned expansion across the Greater Vancouver Area with locations in Vancouver, Burnaby and Surreyslated for opening in late 2018 and 2019.

"The Pizza Pizza brand has an incredible existing customer base across Canada, so we are thrilled to begin offering a new pizza option for British Columbians, that the rest of the country knows and loves," explains Paul Goddard, CEO at Pizza Pizza Limited.

Pizza Pizza is known for its "hot and fresh" pizza, made with quality ingredients, and an assortment of options for Canadians with different tastes, lifestyles and budgets. They also serve up a variety of delicious appetizers and sides such as Canadian-farm raised chicken bites and wings raised without antibiotics, freshly-prepared salads and more. The franchise offers the convenience of dine-in, pick-up, or delivery available via online ordering, iPhone and Android app or by phone. Catering to a wide range of consumers, Pizza Pizza is completely customizable and also carries options for those with dietary restrictions such as gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan. In July 2018, the franchise also launched the first-ever quick service restaurant cauliflower-based pizza crust.

"We're very excited about this next step in Pizza Pizza's national expansion" says Goddard. "We know how much British Columbians love their pizza so we have big plans for the West Coast, and are looking to build significant market presence in the Greater Vancouver area, and beyond, in the coming years."
