Mama Romano's has Launched National Franchise Program
07/18/2012 – (Restaurant News Release) Mama Romano’s Italian Restaurants has announced they will be launching an aggressive expansion program through franchising. The Mama Romano’s brand was developed originally in South Florida by Paul and Tammi Pizzi as a fast casual Italian restaurant opportunity based on years of experience from the food service market.
Mama Romano’s brings traditional, authentic Italian cuisine by embracing Italian culture and history through a focused and genuine Italian menu offering and an operation that resembles that of eating in an Italian home right next to the kitchen. “The Mama Romano’s dining experience goes far beyond enjoying pizza or Italian Food, it’s about creating an experience that is memorable and has a great deal of value to the families and customers who visit our locations,” explains founder Paul Pizzi.
For most, it’s a refreshing opportunity to dine in a fun, upbeat restaurant that has really great food at extremely low prices for the quality of product offered. The ambiance and environment create an opportunity for sizeable lunch traffic and an enormous amount of dinner clientele. The food speaks for itself, but the operation adds the personality to Mama Romano’s.
Franchise partners for Mama Romano’s will be offered a corporate training program, site location assistance, onsite training, marketing programs, food distribution relationships, private label products and a wide-ranging menu. The operation has been designed for simple duplication with structured systems through technology, processes and refined operating systems.
Mama Romano’s is entering the restaurant service franchise marketplace with confidence that the business model, financials of the operation and the concept will create a competitive advantage over other food service franchises. “We never planned on franchising, but we investigated,” said Mr. Pizzi. “After gathering the facts and evaluating the market we saw an enormous opportunity for the Mama Romano’s brand and business model.”
