Donatos has announced plans to grow the brand by adding 10-15 locations in Pittsburgh. Donatos is already selling its pizzas inside nine Red Robin Gourmet Burgers’ locations in Pittsburgh. In addition to its three target cities, the brand recently opened a third unit in Erie, PA.
“The overwhelmingly positive response from guests at our existing locations has definitely motivated us to continue doing what we love and move forward with our growth plans,” said Jeff Baldwin, vice president of development and franchising for Donatos.
“We’re excited to share our famous edge to edge pizzas with more communities in western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and West Virginia. We are confident that people will fall in love with our food and resonate with our mission as we continue to expand nationwide.”
Donatos is focusing on smaller communities around Youngstown and Morgantown. The pizza brand already has 112 locations open across Ohio, and is looking to build on its growth in western Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
“It’s clear that our mission and food is appreciated across our home state of Ohio, and we believe neighboring states like Pennsylvania and West Virginia will enjoy the Donatos experience, so it’s a no-brainer to keep expanding in this region and give back to the communities that have given so much to us over the years,” said Kevin King, president of Donatos.
“We hope to foster more of that local love that motivates us to provide the best food and service possible in our markets.”
