Our History

he first Pizza Factory opened its doors in 1979 in Oakhurst, California (near the southern entrance to Yosemite National Park). Because of Pizza Factory's reputation for quality pizzas, simplicity of concept and median cost of operation, several more Pizza Factories were added. Partners Dan Wheeler and Ron Willey began franchising the business in 1985.
     Today there are over 140 restaurants in ten western states. Pizza Factory opportunities are available in both small towns and metropolitan communities. The flexibility of three restaurant sizes has enabled our company to accommodate any location.
     We're excited about our growth and thankful for our franchisees and customers who have helped make our franchise a success.
