Garlic Jim’s Famous Gourmet Pizza
When we created the Garlic Jim’s concept we studied the pizza market carefully. We determined that many of the “Mom & Pops” were making very high quality pizzas but it could take 45 minutes or longer to get them delivered. The big franchises were able to get a pizza delivered quickly but we didn’t care for the quality of the pizza. So Garlic Jim’s combined the gourmet pizza created by the small operator with the refined and speedy delivery mechanisms of the big operators to provide to our customers - “Gourmet, Right Away!” And we do it all from an attractive, upscale store front.

What tools and resources do you provide for franchisees?
In addition to Garlic Jim’s business plan, recipes, logos and service marks, store design and branding, Garlic Jim’s supports its franchisees from the time they enter the system until grand opening.
After completing the sales process, we pair you with a qualified expert in retail leasing to assist you in locating a site that meets all of the Garlic Jim’s criteria. Additionally you’ll receive help negotiating a fair lease, store design assistance from one of our experienced architects, assistance in placing your restaurant equipment order and recommendation of a pre-qualified contractor to help build out your store.
What training and support do you offer?
As your planned opening date approaches you’ll be scheduled into your 5 week training program where you will learn every aspect of running a Garlic Jim’s pizza operation. We will teach you everything from hiring and training people to running the point-of-sale system to tracking inventory and marketing your store throughout your trade area.
You will receive training and assistance to create a tremendous awareness of your new store long before it opens. Our grand opening process is designed to drive volumes of business not normally seen until you’ve been open for months. We show you how to do it in the first week!
How do you differentiate yourselves from the competition?
Founder & Chairman Dwayne Northrop says that “it all starts with the dough, the sauce and the cheese.” It should taste like a good French bread. The sauces are made of fresh packed ingredients. The red sauce tastes like a fresh tomato and looks bright and delicious. The cheese used by Garlic Jim’s is fresh whole-milk mozzarella, never frozen. Our meats and other toppings are of the highest quality and always fresh packed. Together, our fine, high quality ingredients combined with creative, inventive recipes produce a product we’re proud to call gourmet. But that isn’t good enough…
