How to reinvent franchising with tech and transparency

This is our future Hangzhou commissary; here we’re going to produce special dough for our new pizzeria in China. What’s different about our new dough? I’ll tell you soon.

Interestingly, builders in China prefer thin brick walls to plasterboard—they say it’s simpler, stronger, and cheaper.

Our construction managers are Eric and Ali. They’ve been with us for two years and have come to Hangzhou from Yantai, where our first Chinese pizzeria is located. We couldn’t embark on such a high-risk project, a new kind of pizzeria in one of the largest cities in China, without our team and our partners. The team is the key.
