I.������ THE FRANCHISOR. AND ANY PARENTS.
PREDECESSORS. AND AFFILIATES
The franchisor is Pizza Guys
Franchises, Inc. which is a California corporation incorporated on April 7,
1995 which sell pizza store franchises under the "Pizza Guys" name. To simplify language in
this Disclosure Document, "Pizza Guys Franchises, Inc." will
generally be referred to as "us," "we" or "our"
and "you" and "your" will mean a person whom we grant a
franchise.
The Pizza Guys� franchises to be offered in
this state consist of a system for serving to the general public, during lunch,
dinner and other hours, a limited menu of foods and beverages prepared
according to certain recipes, formulas and other procedures, for consumption
off premises at takeout and delivery only pizza stores decorated and equipped
according to our specifications, and operated under the "Pizza Guys " name according to our marketing,
business, inventory, accounting, and other policies and procedures, all of
which we have developed and will continue to develop (referred to as the
"franchise" or the "franchise system" as the context
requires).
The pizza market is a highly
competitive and developed market with low profit margins requiring a high
volume of sales to be profitable. Additionally, the market is dominated by
large nationally based companies such as Papa Johns�, Dominoes�, Godfather''s�, Pizza Hut�,
Round Table�, and little
Caesars� with
much greater capital resources than us and a multitude of small chain or single
restaurant stores. There may be other risks concerning this franchise. Discuss
the pizza market in general and this franchise in specific with your
Professional Advisor.
This is the 13th year in which
we have offered Pizza Guys� franchises. We have never offered franchises in
another line of business. We do not operate any Pizza Guys� stores our self although a
