Neighbor Newspapers: Your Pie Founder Drew French Looks Towards Expansion in 2016

Athens- based Your Pie pizza is gearing up for their biggest day of the year when they'll celebrate customers on Pi(e) Day by offering their pizza, craft beer and more for just $3.14.

Founder Drew French was inspired by his Italian heritage to create the Your Pie concept, which has now expanded to 28 locations in 10 states, including one in Buckhead and a Perimeter location in Atlanta.

The company is planning big expansion this year, with 30 more locations in the works.

“We will open 20 stores this year as far west as California,” he said. “We have signed an additional 30 units. Our five-year growth goal is not about adding additional units, but about partnering with the right franchisees that share in our values and mission to improve our communities by changing the way people experience pizza. If we are hyper-focused on doing that in each of our local communities, then we feel the growth will happen organically.”
