Buscemi's Pizza Cost Comparisons

About Buscemi's Pizza

In the years ahead, the outlook for the franchise food industry is impressive. More families are eating out, and homemade prepared Italian foods are in ....so is Buscemi's.The 2000's have held great potential, particularly for the Original Buscemi's because it appeals to the population of Americans who have been brought up on convenience, fast foods and an informal way of life. Nationwide convenience store chains are adding brand name fast food operation to their stores. Many working parents today have raised their families on convenience foods and an "eat-as-you-can" basis. These facts bring our ideas right into focus: Americans today, because of their fast pace and many activities, would just as soon "grab a bite on the way". With Pizza and Subs being two of the most popular foods, gaining to be the favorites, we feel that Buscemis's provides the answer to a hungry America. After you've read over the material on this website and taken all necessary considerations, we think you'll be convinced, as we are, that there is a great future in Buscemi's.

Buscemi’s present competition comes from single unit operators of party stores. Consequently, as the only party store chain of any real size in Michigan, Buscemi’s has for years enjoyed a good measure of leadership in the Southeastern Michigan marketplace.

Management believes the superior food products and services offered in the Buscemi’s Party Shoppes, if coupled with greater marketing and advertising, could place the Company in a truly dominant position in Michigan. If rapid growth can be attained in the Michigan market area, Buscemi’s may eventually consider expansion into the national market for party and convenience stores.

Growth in Michigan will be through the conversion of existing party and liquor stores in southeastern Michigan, which hold state liquor, beer and wine licenses, and lottery licenses. New licenses are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain, so the purchase of an existing license is a much surer method. These stores will then be converted by remodeling with a new Buscemi’s decor package, signage and menu. The Submarine sandwiches. Such stores can be converted to the Buscemi’s concept and reopened in as little as 60-90 days.

The initial focus for selling new franchises will be accomplished through store conversions and offering reduced franchise fees and royalty payments to persons who convert their stores to Buscemi’s Party Shoppes.
