| “We are proud to be growing
Mountain Mike’s Pizza with strong, community-minded business leaders, and
our partnerships with focused, industry-savvy and dedicated franchisees
like the Plucinskis and Brandons allow us to bring the brand to new markets
like Colorado, where we expect to ‘peak’ thanks to best-in-class planning,
proven measures and talented people leading the climb,” said Chris
Britt, co-owner and co-CEO of Mountain Mike’s Pizza.
 Colorado, which becomes the eighth state where Mountain Mike’s operates its popular restaurants, is a natural next step for the acclaimed pizza chain as it continues to grow strategically throughout the West. Rocky Mountain residents now can look forward to the brand’s famous 20-inch Mountain-sized pizzas, which includes the popular Pikes Peak, and the inviting Mountain Mike’s Pizza dining/lifestyle concept that’s sure to resonate with Coloradans. “Mountain Mike’s has loyal fans throughout the West, and we’re thrilled to introduce our family-friendly pizza restaurant that’s perfect for celebrations, fundraisers and team gatherings to our new guests in Colorado,” said Ed St. Geme, also co-owner and co-CEO of the brand. 2022 saw Mountain Mike’s lay the foundation for the most significant expansion in the brand’s history. During the year, the company opened 20 new restaurants and signed more than 25 new franchise agreements, which included five multi-unit deals, resulting in 38 additional units. Mountain Mike’s has also earned impressive recognition and high rankings across a variety of industry-leading reports, including Franchise Times, Nation’s Restaurant News, Entrepreneur, Fast Casual, QSR Magazine, and Restaurant Business, among many others. “A family dining tradition for more than four decades throughout California, we are now being greeted warmly in new states throughout the Western U.S. where our franchise partners are experiencing record-breaking success – underscoring the tremendous opportunity for passionate entrepreneurs and successful multi-brand franchise operators to reap the benefits of joining one of the nation’s leading family-friendly pizza concepts,” said Jim Metevier, President and Chief Operating Officer at Mountain Mike’s Pizza. “Mountain Mike’s owes its success to some of the most reputable and talented franchisees in the business, and we are actively seeking entrepreneurs and qualified, passionate candidates in Colorado and throughout the Four Corners region to join our franchise family during the most exciting time in company history.” To build upon the brand’s success while satisfying consumer demand for higher-quality pizza and family-friendly dining options, Mountain Mike’s is extending opportunities to new franchise partners looking to diversify their franchise brand portfolios with a popular family pizza concept. With many more new Mountain Mike’s Pizza restaurants expected to open in 2023, the 265+ unit franchised pizza brand is primed to continue expansion west of the Mississippi in states that have been identified as prime markets for the established, fast-growing brand.
