Pizza Patrón Expands in Ft. Worth

Premiere Mexican Pizza Chain Kicks Off Growth Spurt

DALLAS  — May 28, 2014 – Pizza Patron, the premiere Mexican pizza chain, has opened a new location at 6280 McCart Avenue in Ft. Worth, Texas.

The store was opened by Pizza Patron franchisees Luis Ibarguengoytia and Ismael Leal of Pizitaz, LLC. This is the fifth store in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex for this group of long-time multi-unit operators.

“We are excited to be here and look forward to introducing the brand, and its amazing food and unbeatable prices to the community,” said Leal.  “Our promise is ‘Más Pizza. Menos Dinero.®’ and we keep that real every day.”

The location is a carryout store with pick-up window that is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to midnight.

The chain currently has a number of new stores under development in the DFW metroplex. After a year of restructuring and a weeding out of underperforming operators, Pizza Patron is positioned in 2014 for high growth through corporate store development, its existing veteran franchisees and a pointed focus on the Mexican segment of the Hispanic demographic.

“Ft. Worth remains one of the top five growth cities in Texas,” said Victor Vazquez, business development manager for Pizza Patrón.  “We are excited to bring great pizza value to this new community.”
