The brand is the latest to launch into the crowded pizza franchise marketplace and the Melbourne-based business has announced plans to expand its fledgling vegan pizza chain further across its home city and into Sydney, Brisbane and Byron Bay.
Founders Michael Craig and Shelley Scott opened Red Sparrow Pizza’s first outlet in 2017 in Collingwood and have since added a Chapel Street store and a food truck.
The couple pride themselves on the brand’s authentic Neapolitan approach using traditional techniques for making pizza dough and tomato sauce, and baking the pizzas in Italian wood-fired ovens.
Earlier this year, Red Sparrow Pizza partnered with DC Strategy to bring their franchise goals to life. The all-in-one franchise firm has guided the Red Sparrow Pizza team through the initial stages of their tailored franchise project, and will now assist the brand with the franchise recruitment and marketing across Australia.
Craig said: “As small business owners with more skills in hospitality than business we were looking for a team who could help us in all the aspects that we were unfamiliar with.”
