A. HOW WE STARTED It all started in 1993 when the current owner, Mr. A. Nicolakakis, a restaurateur by trade decided to purchase a flagging pizza restaurant, with the intention of turning it around using his extensive knowledge and expertise. After operating the store for a year, he realised the product the store was selling was ridiculously over priced and therefore the store would continue to suffer financially, unless some changes were made. Instead of changing the prices, he decided to rather keep the same prices, but give two pizzas for the price of one. That is when Little Caesar s came into being. As public knowledge of this fantastic, very competitively priced product grew, consumer demand lead to the opening of Little Caesar s in other locations in Pretoria as well as surrounding areas. Then, unfortunately, legalities arose with the registration of the company name, which favourably lead to the birth of Roman s Pizza in 2002. Since then the company has gone from strength to strength due to the franchisor s hands-on approach. Our goal today remains the same, and that is to offer the best value for money in the industry. Many have attempted to imitate our concept, but as yet, none have succeeded. Today, Roman s Pizza has some of the busiest pizzerias in the country with some stores selling up to (and even at times in excess of) 2,000 pizzas per night. We aim to offer consumers throughout the country a more affordable meal, but also provide the franchisee with a substantial return on his capital. B. OUR PLEDGE At Roman s Pizza we strive to provide the best quality meals at the best value for money. As founders of the 2 pizzas for 1 low price we have set an industry benchmark in terms of value for money. We offer the consumer a choice of either pan base (thick base), or traditional base (thin base) pizza. Pizza is our major line at the moment and constitutes up to 80% of our total sales at some stores. We have a combination of restaurants/take-aways as well as take-aways only, in the group. Our current focus is on setting up take-aways only, as they are far easier to manage from a franchisee point of view, and control from a franchisor point of view. C. OPERATIONAL ASPECTS All our franchised stores are owner operated. We do not believe in selling stores as investments, as they are generally not operated according to the standards required by head office. Franchisees and all other staff members undergo training at a corporate store for a period of 4 to 6 weeks. Roman s Pizza employees are trained to provide friendly and efficient service. Our employees are the heart of our business, so we strive to provide a fun, friendly working environment. To ensure that we continue to grow and prosper, harmony needs to be maintained throughout the group. D. PROFILE OF THE IDEAL FRANCHISEE A Roman s Pizza franchisee must posses the following attributes: Passion for the industry and his business as well as be involved in all aspects Willing to work long hours Exceptional communication skills Willing to learn Able to motivate his employees Adhere to Roman s Pizza s operating standards Have a minimum of R1 000 000-00 in unencumbered cash Always operate with the brand s best interests in mind E. SITE DETAILS Copyright Roman s Pizza Pretoria CC Version 2.0 (February 2016) 2
E. SITE DETAILS All sites are analysed by head office and must conform to our criteria. Head office also plays it s hand in determining the viability of lease agreements for prospective sites. We always try to ensure that a Roman s Pizza franchise is opened in the best site possible with a suitable lease agreement. As they say in this industry, there are three very important factors to ensure a restaurant s success: location, location and location. We know that other factors also come into play; however the right site will make a significant difference in a franchisee s success. We are not in the habit of closing stores and will therefore always take the option to relocate poor performers. F. LAYOUT OF THE STORES Roman s Pizza believes that high quality operations require the best equipment. All our stores are fitted with ovens, dough mixers and dough rollers imported from abroad. Due to the volumes of pizzas served, we work on a conveyor belt oven system. Roman s Pizza is the only pizza group that has 3 ovens operating simultaneously in a large amount of our stores. G.
