Pizza Pipeline, The Franchise

Pizza delivery

In 1988, the first Pizza Pipeline restaurant was opened in Spokane, Washington, using a unique variation of a common product. The Pizza Pipeline, Inc. has opened additional restaurants and is franchised in several states.

The Pizza Pipeline is a delivery / carry-out restaurant dealing primarily with pizza. Freshly made dough offered in several sizes are available with many different sauces and twenty-five assorted items including Chicken, Artichoke Hearts and Cashews. In addition to this, many combination pizzas ranging from "The Pizza Pipeline Sampler" to our Lettuce, Sour Cream, and Tomato topped "Chicken Fajita" are offered. For those with a sweet tooth, we have "Sweetzza Pizzas"® such as our "Chocolate Peanut Butter Delight" and our "Apple Cream Cheese Swirl."

The Pizza Pipeline was founded on the slogan that "Quality Is Our #1 Product"®. Our restaurants have received numerous awards and our pizzas and sub sandwiches have been voted the best by nationally recognized restaurant organizations.

Since 1988 we have developed a loyal and increasing consumer base. We attribute this to strong customer service and quality products. Through volume purchasing and operational efficiencies we keep costs low.

To accompany a pizza purchase, we also sell sub sandwiches, cheese bread, chicken products, and our own specialty bread sticks trademarked as "Tricky Stix."® We are currently working on additional items for use as revenue builders.

We supply free sodas with every pizza and sub sandwich purchase as an ongoing promotional campaign. We offer party packet discounts and several other specialized customer incentives to keep our clientele retention.
