Process - Godfather's Pizza Franchising

Survey and Financial Application

We want to make sure Godfather’s Pizza’s franchising offerings meets or exceeds the investor’s portfolio requirements and that we’re a good fit. Once we receive and qualify the application, the Franchise Disclosure Document is distributed.

National Headquarters

The investor will travel to Omaha, Nebraska where he or she will be introduced to the entire Godfather’s Pizza concept. The day would include meeting the family of owners, executives, research and development and marketing in addition to dining at a nearby Godfather’s Pizza restaurant to look at décor and product.

Site Selection

A site submission form along with a deposit will be required to have approval on a requested location, market, and review of territorial boundaries.

Training and Certification

Once the site is approved, the investor must select an operator for one or more of the units to travel to the national headquarters facility for operational training. The person(s) will be in training for three weeks. A training certification is required for each unit. Prior to opening our training staff will be on site to ensure an exceptional opening. In addition, our staff works with your team to train and open your location.

Site Coordination and Opening

Assistance is provided in all aspects of opening a new location: store design, equipment specifications, marketing assistance, two-week of corporate support for your opening, food purchasing and any other new store opening assistance necessary. Our goal is to help the investor be successful by serving the best pizza in town.

Signing the Franchise Agreement

A franchise agreement will be distributed upon opening each location. The signed agreement is required to be mailed back to Godfather’s Pizza headquarters along with the initial fee and continuing fees within 5 days after the restaurant opening. As the Godfather would say, now just “Do it!”

The Road to Success

Our franchising process consists of six steps designed to ensure the absolute best possible outcome from the very start all the way through to the very end. Each step is required and builds upon the last.
