Hunt Brothers Pizza has officially surpassed 11,000 locations nationwide, marking another significant milestone during the company’s 35th anniversary year.

Founded in 1991 by brothers Don, Lonnie, Jim and Charlie Hunt, Hunt Brothers Pizza has grown from a single idea into the nation’s largest brand of made-to-order pizza in the convenience store industry. Today, the family-owned company operates locations across 33 states.

“Thirty-five years ago, our family set out to create opportunities for store owners and provide consumers with a quality product they could count on,” said Scott Hunt, CEO of Hunt Brothers Pizza. “As we celebrate this milestone anniversary, we’re proud to see the next generation of our family carrying that vision forward while staying true to the values that have guided us from the beginning. Surpassing 11,000 locations is an incredible achievement, but what means the most is the lasting relationships we’ve built with our store partners and the opportunity to continue serving communities for generations to come.”

“What makes this milestone especially meaningful is that we’ve never lost sight of why Hunt Brothers Pizza was founded in the first place,” said Erin Hunt Ferguson, CEO of Hunt Advantage Group, a Hunt Brothers Pizza master distributor. “For 35 years, our family’s mission has been to be a blessing to others – our team members, store partners, vendor partners and the communities we serve. Reaching 11,000 locations is a testament to those relationships, and we are excited to continue investing in innovation, operational excellence and the success of our store partners for years to come.”

For 35 years, Hunt Brothers Pizza has helped convenience store operators grow their foodservice businesses through a turnkey branded pizza program focused on profitability, simplicity and quality. The company has remained committed to providing top-quality ingredients and exceptional flavor that exceeds consumers expectations.

“Surpassing 11,000 locations less than two years after reaching 10,000 reflects the continued strength of our business and the opportunities we see ahead,” said Robinson Hunt, president of DBH Distributing, a Hunt Brothers Pizza master distributor. “As we look to the future, we’re focused on investing in our operations, supporting our distributor and store partners, and building on the momentum we’ve created over the past 35 years to drive sustainable growth.”

Hunt Brothers Pizza remains family-owned and operated, with the next generations, Erin Hunt Ferguson and Robinson Hunt, carrying forward the Hunt brothers’ vision while continuing to invest in store partner success, operational excellence and long-term growth.
