Famous Famiglia vs Papa John's Franchise Comparison

In the summer of 1986 the Kolaj family, founders of Famous Famiglia, opened their first pizzeria in the vibrant and culturally rich Upper Westside of Manhattan. First year sales far exceeded projections and New Yorkers were enjoying pizza at its best. Famous Famiglia quickly became a leader in the New York pizza market. Over the next 12 years they opened many more locations throughout New York City growing the company into a successful New York pizza chain, winning contests and awards with their quality and service.

Franchising is a very popular business model in the United States and in many countries throughout the world. It is proven that investing in a franchise reduces exposure to risk by following a proven system. While there are no guarantees in business, our franchise program has been carefully developed and executed over the years.

Since our brand is very important to us, we decided long ago to develop a franchise system that will hopefully do two things: preserve the respected reputation of the Famous Famiglia brand and provide a business opportunity to entrepreneurs.

Famous Famiglia is currently seeking qualified franchisees in a variety of markets. While our preference is to attract experienced food & beverage operators, experience in the industry is not a requirement. We encourage motivated individuals that have a long-term vision for entrepreneurship and own their own business to consider our program.

We feel there are certain traits about an individual, or a group, that might make them an ideal Famous Famiglia franchisee candidate. These are some of the traits we are looking for:

1. You have a passion for the pizza/restaurant industry
2. You have a natural desire to serve people
3. You have the ability to motivate a team of individuals
4. You pay attention to detail and follow through on tasks
5. You are a natural team player
6. You are a good listener and understand the value of following a proven system
7. You share in a similar work ethic and promote a healthy work environment
8. You have a business plan for your Famous Famiglia business
9. You have the financial wherewithal to establish your business

We welcome entrepreneurial individuals and groups that are interested in considering multi-unit development programs. We also offer territorial exclusivity to qualifying prospects.

At Papa John's we have a simple formula for success: Focus on one thing and try to do it better than anyone else. By keeping the Papa John's menu simple, we are able to focus on the quality of our product by using only superior-quality ingredients. Our commitment to quality can be seen in all of our ingredients, from our fresh (never frozen) water-purified traditional dough, to our vine-ripened fresh-packed tomato sauce (which goes from the vine to the can in an average of six hours), to our cheese made with 100% mozzarella and many other premium ingredients.
