We didn’t start our business in a boardroom. We started it in a broom
closet. Back in 1984, our Founder, John Schnatter (that’s Papa John to
you) sold his beloved muscle car to buy pizza‐making equipment. Armed
with only an oven and a love for making quality pizza, John opened the
very first Papa John’s in the crowded broom closet of his father’s
tavern.
Over the years, this passion for making better pizza
informed every decision and pizza we made...because the last thing we
wanted to be was a pizza company. So instead of chopping vegetables with
machines, we chop them by hand every day. Instead of investing in
gimmicks, we invest in fresh ingredients. And we pile them high on our
fresh, never-frozen original dough.
Today, we’ve surrounded ourselves with like-minded people
with a passion for making better pizza, including franchisees,
suppliers, athletes, pizza makers, and farmers we’ve known for over 30
years. Like our friend Dino in California - "he grows the best tomatoes.
In the end, John’s desire to create a better pizza built more than a pizza company...he built a pizza family.
