Your Pie, the original down-the-line pizza concept, ended 2022 with a footprint of over 70 stores across the U.S., as well as an increase in overall sales and transactions. Despite downward trends in the overall success of the industry, the fast casual concept saw year-over-year sales jump by nearly 8.46%, AUV increase by 18% and witnessed the top 50% of restaurants garner over $1 million in sales.
Your Pie also closed the year with a complete brand refresh featuring a revitalized logo at the forefront. With that, the brand introduced a modernized menu board design featuring high-quality project imagery, updated product names and a convenient pizza sizing chart illustration. In tandem with the new logo and menu board design, Your Pie updated the dining room layout and exterior design of new locations and current stores who elected to remodel. Your Pie plans to continue updating store interior and exterior designs in 2023.
“Although 2022 was uniquely difficult for restaurants in the fast casual industry, I’m proud of our ability to not only remain focused on growth but meet our guests’ ever-evolving needs in a meaningful way,” said Drew French, Founder of Your Pie. “Behind the steady growth in our national reach and exciting brand initiatives, you’ll find a committed group of executives, franchisees and team members whose priority is to make everyday moments better with pizza.”
Backed with a secret ingredient of sales, Your Pie is poised to accelerate momentum in 2023, projecting 20 store openings. Since January the brand has already opened one new location and has two slated for remodel. Your Pie also earned recognition on Pizza Marketplace’s annual Top 100 Movers & Shakers list.
“The past year pushed fast casual brands to new levels of innovation, which makes us even prouder to be ranked among some of the most successful concepts shaping the future of the pizza industry,” said French. “We are confident Your Pie is a franchise on the rise and a leader in the future of fast casual.”
Your Pie was founded in 2008 by Drew French, who pulled inspiration from Italian family recipes to offer a down-the-line pizza concept that granted guests the opportunity to customize their pie their way or sample signature selections. Since its inception, the company has grown from its Athens flagship location to a national franchise footprint.
