    About Manny & Olga's Pizza

    Manny opened his first restaurant in 1974, gaining valuable experience which he expanded on through the years.

    In 1993, the restaurant was officially named Manny & Olga’s and the tradition was started. Incorporating the names of father and daughter (Manny and Olga) family values and warm hospitality are the key ingredients appreciated and respected by customers even today.

    Delicious food, fair prices and quality service is what you can expect with every visit to Manny & Olga’s.

    About Pizza Schmizza

    You see, way back in our earliest days, when founder and pizza retailing giant André Jehan (whose modesty compelled him to name his corporation André Grandé), first got serious about Schmizza, he dreamt up and trademarked the “one planet, one people, one pizza®” slogan. Because even then, he said, “world domination was the goal”. And now you can participate. Instead of simply standing by as an observer, or happily engaging André and the other Schmizza franchise owners as a Pizza Schmizza consumer, you can invest and own your very own Pizza Schmizza, anywhere! Opportunities are available literally virtually planet-wide. Sadly, there are a few places where you can’t open your own Schmizza, but they are few and far between. And there are no restrictions on developing other planets and moons, if you’re ready to move on from Planet Earth.
