TORONTO, ONTARIO - (Marketwire) - Halloween is the single biggest sales day for Pizza Pizza. In 2009, the Pizza Pizza team processed over 45,000 orders over Halloween alone. Families rushing around to get their little witches and goblins ready for the big evening out often opt for the convenience of pizza.

To prepare for the projected double digit sales spike the Pizza Pizza team carefully interprets previous sales data, makes advanced supply orders, increases call attendant staffing and lifts the 40 minutes or it's free guarantee so drivers do not have scary run-ins with ghouls in the community. Halloween sees more orders placed than New Years or the Superbowl, which come in at number two and three.

WHAT: Pizza Pizza is able to discuss the business side of the Halloween scare, the cause and preparation for the sales spike for anyone working on a Halloween story. Pizza Pizza can also comment on what customers can do to beat the busy signal at the other end of the phone on October 31.
