Pizza Ranch, The Franchise

Pizza, chicken, wraps

The Midwest is home to Pizza Ranch® and we're proud of it. Every day, we provide an extraordinary opportunity for Pizza Ranch® team members to contribute to the lives and communities we serve.

Successful Pizza Ranch® owners may be a bit different from traditional franchising investors. In addition to operating a winning business concept, a Pizza Ranch® operator/manager is connected personally to the community. It is part of who we are. Owning your own Pizza Ranch® is about contributing to the local school system. It is about providing positive first-time work experience to area youth. It is about pitching in and helping with a fund raising drive. It is about the basics - trust, commitment, passion and a good old smile for everyone who comes in the door.

If a winning pizza restaurant franchise concept sounds good to you, you may find a welcome home at Pizza Ranch®. You can own a business by buying a franchise with an outstanding track record.


Our expansion into new markets around the greater Midwest is opening up exciting new franchise opportunities. Becoming an owner/operator of a Pizza Ranch® allows you to partner with an established brand, already strong with over 140 restaurants in 9 states.

* Start-up investment levels vary depending on the store profile; free-standing, ground-up building, retrofited structure, purchase of an existing store. Minimum liquid cash assets and financial net worth requirements are adjusted accordingly.

* Although not required, it is strongly recommended that the restaurant operator have an equity stake of the business/real estate.
