Kansas City’s population is changing as more tech start-ups meet in what’s been coined as “The Silicon Prairie,” this new population needs an excellent food industry to support its growth! Our development strategy focuses on starting in the suburban and rural areas around hubs like Kansas City, Missouri, and working our way into the more urban areas.

With a median household income of over $55,000 and 23% of the population being children and teens under 18, Kansas City makes a great place for a new pizza business.
