The Pizza Nova story began in 1963 when a young Italian family opened the very rst Pizza Nova restaurant. Still family-owned, we have helped hundreds of families open and operate our 145+ locations across Ontario and specialize in hand-tossed, Artisan-style pizzas that are complemented by an extensive menu of proven favourites. Our 59+ years of success continues as a direct result of our uncompromising commitment to providing quality ingredients and product innovation. In 2015 we became the rst Canadian pizza company to introduce pepperoni sourced from beef and pork raised without the use of antibiotics or added hormones. We have since expanded our ‘Raised Without Antibiotics’ pro le to include bacon, chicken wings, chicken pollini, grilled chicken, and smoked ham. In 2021, we introduced the rst pea protein-based pepperoni as a plant-based alternative to our diverse menu, as well as plant-based chick’n bites, thus further expanding our reach to include vegans, vegetarians and exitarians alike. We provide comprehensive training, easy ordering from our HAACP approved commissary, location identi cation & design, operations support and innovative marketing initiatives that bring customers through your door. Pizza Nova is the Of cial Pizza of the Toronto Blue Jays™, Toronto International Film Festival, and the CNE.

DON’T MISS OUR MAY/JUNE 2022 ISSUE!

The Kids & Pets Issue

One of the many perks of franchising is that you can go into an industry that provides support and guidance to the friendly faces in your community. In the May/June 2022 issue of Franchise Canada, we’ll spotlight franchises that provide services to kids and pets across the country. Prospective franchisees can examine franchise opportunities that offer vital education, active lessons and sports, diverse services to help children grow, and more. For those with a love for furry friends, the pet care industry is the ideal opportunity to have fun with cats, dogs, and other cuddly animals while making your entrepreneurial dreams come true. As part of this Kids & Pets issue, we’ll take a trip across Canada to explore education franchises that deliver tutoring, training, subject specialization, and more supplemental education. We also include a special franchise focus on the health and beauty industry that keeps Canadians looking great and feeling better. Check out the May/June issue for this content and more, including franchisee success stories and expert advice from franchise professionals!

WATCH OUT FOR THESE EXCITING FEATURES IN OUR MAY/JUNE 2022 ISSUE:*

PET SERVICES: What better way to pair your love for pets with your passion for business ownership than with a pet care franchise? These brands help train dogs; provide boarding, grooming, and daycare services for fun-loving pups; and offer food, toys, and essentials for growing animals.

CHILDREN’S STEM FRANCHISES:

Every child has a dream and some dream big—right into a discipline that can prepare them for the future and hone their unique abilities. The STEM field—which stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics—is of growing importance to parents and kids. We explore a variety of franchise opportunities that help kids develop vital skills and knowledge in fields that could take them to the moon (maybe literally!) and back. ACTIVE KIDS: Most kids are full of energy and eager to dip their toes into activities that help them discover new hobbies, make new friends, and develop life skills and interests. As a franchise owner, you can support these eager tykes through franchises that provide sports, swimming lessons, and performing arts skills to children of all ages and abilities. CHILDREN’S SERVICES: There are many moving parts to raising a child, and children’s services franchises are the ideal way to support Canadians and their kids from coast to coast. Whether it’s lice removal services, haircuts, clothing, meal production, or more, these franchise brands are a great way to care for your community.

EDUCATION FRANCHISES ACROSS

CANADA: It’s never too early to start building children’s knowledge and life skills, and for some Canadians, their love for learning doesn’t stop after school ends! We’ll examine educational franchises that enhance the skills of students of all ages in subjects like reading, math, English, science, coding, arts, and more.

BEAUTY, HEALTH, AND FITNESS

FRANCHISES: Nowadays, a lot goes into a beauty routine. From burning calories in the gym and nourishing your body with good fuel to taking off hair in unwanted areas or getting your perfect cut and colour, franchises in the beauty, health, and fitness industries help Canadians look and feel their best—inside and out.

PLUS, A SPECIAL FRANCHISE FOCUS ON HEALTH & BEAUTY FRANCHISES!
