About Blaze Pizza
Blaze Pizza is a modern day "pizza joint" serving up artisanal pizzas that are both fast and affordable.  With fans lining up or ordering online each day for their custom-built pizzas, freshly made salads, house made lemonades and s'more pies, the innovative fast-casual concept has quickly become one of the hottest restaurant chains in the country.  Each restaurant features an interactive open-kitchen format that allows guests to customize one of the menu's signature pizzas or create their own, choosing from a wide selection of inventive toppings.  The generously-sized pizzas are then sent to a blazing hot open-flame oven ? the centerpiece of the restaurant ? where dedicated pizzasmiths ensure the artisanal pies are fast-fire'd and ready to eat in just minutes.  Restaurants make fresh dough from scratch using a proprietary recipe developed by Executive Chef Bradford Kent (the "Pizza Whisperer"), which requires a 24-hour fermentation period to produce his signature light-as-air, crisp crust. 

Recently named #1 ?Brand of the Year' in the Fast Casual Top 100, the fast-growing chain currently operates over 340 restaurants in 41 states and 6 countries.  The concept is backed by private equity firm Brentwood Associates and founding investors, which include LeBron James, Maria Shriver, movie producer John Davis and Boston Red Sox co-owner Tom Werner.  For more information, please visit blazepizza.com and facebook.com/blazepizza or click here to view a company video.
