    pfg/roma - what's the deal?

    I’ve been working on opening a place for a few weeks now. I’ve wanted to use Roma for a long time, so I thought I’d give PFG a try. What is the deal with these guys? PFG is destroying what use to be a great company. I’ve been trying for 2 weeks to get samples from our sales rep and still haven’t...

    College Pizza Leaders

    Nobody knows any major college pizza shops? I’m wanting to figure out the common thread for site location criteria, but I only know that Papa John’s and Dominos are near every campus. That gets me started, but I want more to compare in the criteria. I know there are other chains that hit...

    "Sorry, no substitutions"

    It has been said that one customer is worth $10,000 in business. If you piss one off, you have lost $10,000 in business. If you go to any of the big 3, they trade topping for topping. You don’t need to nickle and dime your customers. Why not service the customer so they know their relationship...

    College Pizza Leaders

    I was wanting to find out who the leading college pizza shops are. Ideally, this would be the pizza places that offer dine-in, carryout, and delivery. Also, the dine-in would be casual, counter-service style. Who are the pizza shop franchises that target the college markets? Thanks

    Average number of toppings

    I am working on my business and had a question for everyone. I am going to offer a 12", 14" and 18" pizza. When we had a place before, I believe people ordered an average of 2 toppings on any of the sizes. What are you all getting for your average number of toppings?

    Food Costs

    Anyone else have any input? I’d like to know what is common for food costs. Everyone knows 30% on pizza and around 50% for wings, but what about everything else?

    New vs Used Equipment

    I am wondering what experiences you all have with used equipment. I’ve heard you should never buy used refrigeration equipment or used fryers. I’m wondering what items you all have found to be safe to buy used and what you have found should be new. I’m trying to put together my equipment budget.

    Food Costs

    I know what the target is for food cost in general, but I’m curious what the average food cost % is for various items. I’m wondering what is normal for the different menu items like appetizers (fries, o-rings, chicken tenders, etc), simple pizzas (cheese or a couple toppings) vs specialty...

    POS Systems

    By #6, I mean that you have the ability to take orders from a different location. I saw on one system where you could take orders from your house or somewhere else if you wanted to. It opens up the possibility to help take orders from a remote location and help keep your labor down. I don’t know...

    POS Systems

    Ok. Right now I am leaning heavily toward Firefly for my POS system, but I have some questions that I haven’t been able to ask yet. I’ve come up with a few things I would like to see on my system. I’d like to know if any of the major systems are lacking in these features so I can potentially...
