Franchising

Franchising

The Group “La Piadineria”, member of the association “Assofranchising”, is nowadays a business reality with a well advanced productive and distribution network. The current outcomes result from  a slow and steady development, made of passionate and concrete choices, starting with the first shop, opened in Brescia in 1994. Founded by the partners Franco and Antonio as a single business, “La Piadineria” became a franchising in 1998, and now it owns several shops in the North and in the centre of Italy. The meticulous choice of a genuine product, prepared according to traditional recipes and using with fresh ingredients is at the basise of our business.

And then the decision of betting on people, creating a simple and easy formula, that allows the affiliate to focus on the preparation of the “piadas” and on the relation with the client.

That is how we built our network: acquiring clients and affiliates’ trust “piada after piada”. The continuous increase of the number of shops led to the establishment of a new headquarter with a large and well-organized warehouse - but more importantly, with a more functional workshop. In fact we still make the dough with flour without adding food colouring or preservatives, on the basis of our traditional recipe. Ever fresh!
