The iconic Ohio-based pizzeria aims to grow across key markets in Ohio and throughout the U.S.
Columbus-style pizza pioneer Massey’s Pizza, known for its famous pepperoni pizza with 155 pieces of pepperoni boasting the moniker “The Cadillac of Pizza”, is celebrating its 75th anniversary with a significant nationwide franchise sales push. Massey’s Pizza is strategically expanding locally in Columbus, as well as its footprint in key Ohio markets such as Dayton, Cincinnati, and Cleveland and across the U.S.
With 15 locations already operating, Massey’s Pizza has seen consistent success over its lifetime of 75 years, boasting positive growth for 15 consecutive years. The brand offers franchisees a proven model backed by extensive support, flexibility, and a name that has held its own for nearly eight decades in the “Pizza Capital of the World” — Columbus, Ohio.
“We have a very cult-like following in our area, and this is due to the quality of the products we use throughout our menu, and the amount of toppings we put on each pizza. We have created a very unique product compared to our competitors,” said Dominic Pallone, Chief Operating Officer of Massey’s Pizza. “Our generous toppings and signature tavern-style cut have set us apart in the industry. Massey’s was the first company to bring this type of pizza to the area.”
Massey’s franchise opportunities are designed to provide scalability, proven systems, well-established branding, and expert guidance. In terms of easier entry options, franchisees can choose to either build a new store from the ground up or purchase an already operating location complete with staff. Amongst the many support elements for the pizza franchise, franchise buyers get lease negotiation assistance, expert advice from the Massey’s team throughout both the build-out phase and daily operations, comprehensive training, and other ongoing resources.
“We help with scouting locations, working with contractors, and really just walk alongside them through the entire opening process,” Pallone added.
Massey’s Pizza has been a staple of Ohio since 1949 and has continued to innovate with its unique cooking style, utilizing a distinct cornmeal crust and a specialty oven in each store. Beyond pizza, each Massey’s offers wings, pasta, salads, subs, and desserts all within a fun, casual ambiance.
