Round Table Pizza Looks to Asia for Expansion
BEIJING - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Round
Table Pizza, a California Pizza restaurant icon known for quality
and innovation, will be evaluating cities and prospective partners in
China during the next two weeks. The leading west coast pizza brand has
received multiple inquiries for master licenses to bring its premium
products to China and the rest of Asia and is beginning to set up
meetings with these prospective partners.
"International demand is growing as entrepreneurs recognize the value in
the Round Table Pizza brand," notes Round Table Pizza President Rob
McCourt. "Although currently there are other American pizza concepts
operating in China, consumers there are now asking for higher quality
products that the typical chains can't provide."
Founded in California's San Francisco Bay Area, Round Table Pizza has
prospered as the market share leader in one of the most competitive
markets in the United States. Last year, Round Table celebrated 50 years
of success in bringing families together to share a wonderful meal. Of
the company's 500 restaurants, 75% are owned and operated by
franchisees. Round Table is uniquely structured to provide its partners
with the tools and flexibility necessary to launch successful,
international restaurants.
