Pizza Ranch Franchise

The Pizza Ranch began in the year 1981 when Adrie Groeneweg with the support of his father started the business and named it the pizza ranch.  By then, Adrie Groeneweg was aged only 19 years and had just graduated from the high school. He had some little experience in the pizza business because he had worked part time at some local pizza place as an attendant. 

                                  

The father of Adrie Groeneweg signed a business loan and then together with his son they renovated the building that measured about 4,000 square feet in Hull in the US state of Iowa.  They used this money to purchase used equipment worth $16,000.  Because of their hard work, the business took off successfully and in the year 1984 they opened up another pizza ranch. 

 

The Pizza Ranch menu includes pan-style, thin-crust and glutten free pizzas.  The pizza sauce that was created by Adrie Groeneweg is still used today but another one referred to as the Alfredo sauce has been added to the menu.  The pizza ranch also serves barbeque, salad bar, wraps and the crispy ranch chicken. 

 

The most remarkable change to the Pizza Ranch occurred about a decade ago when the Pizza Ranch franchise came up with the concept of buffet.  Since its inception, Pizza Ranch used to have buffet but which was offered only in the noon and in Tuesday nights. This scenario changed some 10 years ago when they started offering buffet every night in response to the needs and demand by their customers.

 

 At the moment, the buffet diner is very popular and accounts for 75% of all the business at any Pizza Ranch franchise location.  25% (the reminder) of business is shared between carry out and delivery. This is so because all the pizza ranch locations have windows for drive up.

 

Why choose the Pizza Ranch franchise?

 

The Pizza Ranch franchise is a wonderful opportunity to make money the way you want.  The buffet of the Pizza Ranch is very popular among the customers because it is composed of pizzas that are unlimited.  Customers can therefore make special request from any type of pizza that they want ranging from mashed potatoes, chicken, salad, gravy, dessert, potato wedges and soft drinks. 

 

The Pizza Ranch franchise is not that low cost but it will give you good returns of investment.  The total initial investment ranges between $798,600 and 1,893,000.  The initial franchise fee is only $30,000 and the royalty fee is 4% of all the gross sales.
