Nick-n-willy's World Famous Pizza Introduces Family Style Fast-casual Restaurant Model

October 01, 2007 // Franchising.com // Denver, Colorado -- Nick-N-Willy's Franchise Company LLC, featuring a distinctive selection of hand-tossed freshly made signature pizzas, announces the launch of its new family style fast-casual restaurant.

The new fast-casual restaurant model was designed for today's busy working professionals and their families. The restaurant's décor provides a pleasing ambience, and restaurants will range in size from 1,200 to 1,600 square feet, with the capacity to seat 26 to 40 guests. Each restaurant will prepare pizzas in a custom Woodstone gasfired brick oven, dedicated to the art of creating a traditional Italian style pizza. In addition, restaurants will include televisions as an entertainment source and, in some cases will serve beer and wine. Restaurants also feature an 4-foot open-air cooler that offers consumers a choice of fresh made pizzas, salads and cold beverages to purchase on-the-go.

The "fast-casual" restaurant segment is a hybrid of the fast-food and traditional sit-down eating experiences. Today's more educated, health-conscious consumers are requiring healthier, better tasting food from the fast-casual restaurants they visit, and Nick-NWilly's offers a selection of healthy, gourmet style pizzas to satisfy its consumers.

"We are excited to enter into the fast-casual restaurant arena, a market that has experienced year over year growth for the past 42 quarters. Our new restaurant model fits well into this hybrid category, and was introduced so that we can provide our consumers with every option to enjoy our fresh, made to order pizzas," said Richard Weil, President of Nick-N-Willy's Franchise Company, LLC. "The launch of this new model has also provided us with an opportunity to retrofit a number of our existing franchise stores and provide them the opportunity to increase their business," said Weil. In addition to the Company's original business stream of take-n-bake pizzas that are prepared fresh and baked at home, the new restaurant model will have the capacity to handle two new revenue streams: baked dine-in and baked takeout pizza.
