Organic pizza chain takes concept national with launch of new franchise system
 
Fort Lauderdale, Fla., March 14, 2007 – Pizza Fusion (www.pizzafusion.com), the leader in organic, quick-service food and a better quality of life, recently announced that they’re taking their organic pizza concept national with the launch of their new franchise program.
 
Founded by Vaughan Lazar and Michael Gordon, Pizza Fusion offers an extensive menu of organic, gourmet pizza, sandwiches, wraps, salads, desserts, beer, wine and more. Pizza Fusion is the first ever organic, fast food franchise, addressing the needs of today’s health conscious consumer with concern for both the individual and the environment. From the creation of their organic food menu to its delivery to the consumer in company owned hybrid vehicles, every aspect of Pizza Fusion was designed to preserve and improve the environment.
 
“We wanted to create a business that benefitted all entities involved: the customer, the environment, the employee and the owner,” Michael Gordon, co-founder of Pizza Fusion, explains. “The result was a profitable business model that is valued by employees and customers alike for its environmental standards, unique product offering and the rewarding experience of contributing to a good cause. When we started getting interest from investors across the country with virtually no marketing whatsoever, we realized we were onto something.”
 
Randy Romano, vice president of development with Pizza Fusion, will lead the company’s national expansion. “Pizza Fusion addresses a much needed void in the restaurant industry. It’s virtually impossible to eat organic when eating out,” Romano continues. “By combining the demand of the organic food market with America’s favorite food in a dine-in, carryout or delivery format, Pizza Fusion is at the forefront of the niche organic restaurant industry. Tie in our industry leading eco-friendly approach at a time when the environment is at the top of everyone’s concerns and we deliver an entrepreneurial climate with a powerful recipe for success.”
 
Romano brings over 20 years of experience with developing and expanding business through franchising to Pizza Fusion. Pizza Fusion’s franchise efforts will target expansion into markets where organic food is already in high demand.
