Your Pie Featured in Greenville News

Clemson’s campus is getting the addition of a new pizza franchise this spring with Athens-based brand Your Pie. This is the beginning of big development plans for franchise owners Doug and Denise Zirbel, who aim to open as many as five locations over the next few years.

“There’s a lot of competition there, but I think the appetite for this concept – delicious food and then coupled with craft beer – is there,” Doug Zirbel said. “And then the pedestrian traffic, people looking for high quality without the long wait, I think it’s a niche place to be.”

Your Pie allows customers to create their pies with any combination of ingredients and offers a wide range of beer and wine, making it the perfect fit for college campuses. However aside from Clemson, the brand has already eyed a number of other potential markets in the area.

"As we continue our expansion, we want to target franchisees who share our commitment to quality, community, and building a brand that lasts," Caldwell said. "We’ve identified 15 potential markets in which we’d love to target these key franchisees.”
