Timber Pizza Co. Accelerates Its Neighborhood‑Driven Expansion in 2026

July 09, 2026 // Franchising.com // Washington, D.C. – Timber Pizza Co.is building strong mid‑year momentum as it expands its franchise footprint, accelerates growth across key markets, and prepares to enter Georgia for the first time with planned locations in Alpharetta and Cumming.

This year, the brand announced its debut in the state, with both Georgia shops expected to open by late 2026 or early 2027 and additional territories across the greater Atlanta area now under consideration.

Timber also strengthened its Mid‑Atlantic presence, with key developments including:

• New storefronts under development in Richmond and Alexandria, following strong demand generated by Timber’s mobile oven at local festivals and neighborhood events. Richmond is slated to open in Fall 2026, and the Alexandria location is in lease negotiations with a targeted Q2 2027 opening.
• Established locations in McLean and Annapolis, both of which opened in 2024 and now serve as strong anchors for the region.
• Active development deals and renewed interest across Northern Virginia, Charlottesville, and the Hampton Roads/Tidewater region.

“It’s been a great first half of the year for our growth and our continued focus on supporting franchisees. We’re thrilled with the progress and consistency across the system, and we’re excited for what the rest of the year will bring,” said Chris Brady, Cofounder of Timber Pizza Co. “Whether it’s a new market or a city we’ve served for years, people want quality, community, and a place that feels like home. That’s the foundation we’re building on as we continue to scale.”

In the first half of 2026, Timber Pizza Co. also made significant operational improvements that strengthened franchisee performance systemwide. The brand focused heavily on inventory management, ensuring every franchise partner had a stronger grip on COGS and labor, resulting in the best financial visibility and consistency the system has seen to date.
