In 1978, Bob Rotunda went to the races and put all his money on a horse named Snappy Tomato. The horse won. Rotunda took his winnings and opened the first Snappy Tomato Pizza that year. The company began franchising three years later.
Today Snappy Tomato Pizza has locations across the United States, Canada and Great Britain serving pizza, hoagies, salads and appetizers.
When Scott and Ally Svenson founded MOD Pizza in 2008, they knew the
last thing the world needed was another pizza place. In their hometown
of Seattle, they imagined a new way for people to enjoy pizza, by
bringing speed, individual style and value to one of America’s favorite
foods. But the real secret sauce wouldn’t be the product, it would be
the people who serve our communities - the MOD Squad. By taking care of
employees, they would take care of the customers, and the business would
take care of itself. It’s how we’ve built a culture of opportunity,
belonging and community since 2008, and it’s catching on
wholeheartedly.
If you’re in a State where MOD exists, chances are we already have a comprehensive plan to grow that entire state. If you’re in a state without a MOD, and you’d like to learn more, we’d love to hear from you. We’ll get back in touch as soon as possible, normally within a few days.
