Consider this; Internet searches reveal there are a near equal number of independent pizza outlets versus chain outlets. Furthermore, independents potentially account for about 50% of the total US pizza market. More online searches suggest the frozen pizza sector, if included in the chart, would possibly be number two which is impressive. Perhaps the only captivating narrative; near everyone, including Garfield, ❤️’s 🍕 whether their preferred place is a large chain, a small independent or from the frozen foods aisle!

Did you know cold drinks now represent 75% of Starbucks' sales?! Coffee chains are betting big on cold drinks as Gen Z turns its back on hot coffee. But it seems the smaller café/restaurant chains and independents are struggling to keep up with the cold brew demand. Does this come from a lack of options/solutions or a lack of awareness of the demand? Not a rhetorical question... I really wanna know why restaurants/café chains aren't rushing to find cold brew solutions.

It's a tough one. Operationally and competitively. Pizza. Nailing the product itself is tough - McD tried it and failed pretty badly. And it's a competitive category - from Pizza Hut to Domino's to Pizza Pizza, and everything in between, it's become a 2 for 1 business. So, I have to wonder if it's a long run, for a short slide - if the operational complexity (with the added complexity of making it work in a franchisee model) can deliver a product that consumers like. And whether it's the linchpin to unlock the dinner daypart. https://lnkd.in/gY7-iwbR

Years ago, I posted about testing a pizza served at Tim Horton's. A few people laughed at the thought of a coffee and doughnut chain serving pizza. Fast forward to the present and, after 2 years of testing, Tim's is finally planning to add flatbread pizza to its menu nationally. This is a great example of test and learn, not to mention patience and keeping focus on a longer-term objective of growing afternoon and dinner traffic. Does your organization have the fortitude to test a concept for 2 years? #testandlearn #pizza #timhortons #longtermthinking #strategy
