Emerald Expositions and Pizza Today magazine announced last week a new industry awards program designed to honor pizzeria operators and help celebrate their business accomplishments. The Pizza Industry Excellence (PIE) Awards offer more than 20 categories covering a broad array of foodservice business disciplines. Independent and chain pizzeria operators alike will be able to register for the PIE Awards now through May 4.
Past award winners from the International Pizza Challenge often report a sales increase in their businesses upwards of 30-35 percent after claiming top honors at Pizza Expo. If you can garner press in your market by touting a victory in a national awards program, you’ll be able to harness some lasting and meaningful buzz and word-of-mouth advertising as well. It’s a business-boosting win!
Early bird entry pricing ends March 30th. If you’ve been looking for an opportunity to make some noise, here’s your chance.
