Pizza Today

This week, we continue our Pizza Expo Interview Series from the show floor at Pizza Expo. Denise spends some time with women who are in the mobile pizzeria business to get their perspective on business, mobile clientele, the pizza industry and Pizza Expo.

Gina and Betsy Wolfe own the upstart Wolfe It Down Pizza in Princeton, Iowa. Gina is retiring this month, so the couple’s new pizza mobile unit will debut at an event in May. We learn all about how this mobile unit is getting off the ground.

Colleen Constant and husband and Chef Isaiah Ruffin own Project Pizza in Seattle, Washington. The food truck relocated from Colorado. We talk with Colleen about business growth plans and learn more about their food literacy nonprofit organization. Explore more about Project Pizza at https://www.projectpizzaco.org/.

Linda and Abby Ortegas, owners of Fired Up Fresh in Watsonville, California, give us an update on what’s happening with the business and the rebranding process they are currently going through. Learn more about Fired Up Fresh at https://www.firedupfresh.net/.
