Franchise Interview with 1000 Degrees Neapolitan Pizza

We are meeting with Brian Petruzzi of 1000 Degrees Neapolitan Pizza. Brian Petruzzi is no stranger to the world of startups. At 11, he handled a 200-home newspaper delivery service, cut lawns in the summer, and shoveled snow-covered Jersey sidewalks in the winter.

As a sophomore in college, Brian had amassed more than $2 million in revenue through different businesses - everything from movie rental stores and frozen yogurt shops to spray tan parlors and domain holding companies. But Brian grew up in an Italian family and dreamed of opening a pizza restaurant in Naples, Italy, like his grandparents.
