Sacramento-based pizza franchise Pizza Guys is responding to the demand for takeout and delivery by making space for virtual brands like Calzone life and Pizza Piatta within its kitchens. After seeing the success of its Calzone Life brand, Pizza Guys set out to offer a new option for customers craving modern Italian flatbread pizzas. Made with fresh ingredients, Pizza Piatta's menu caters to consumers from lunchtime until late at night.
Virtual restaurants are growing in popularity and for good reason, since they offer up advantages for restaurants and customers alike. While restaurants have the potential to save money and offer an expanded menu without the need for a larger kitchen or more staff, customers choose virtual restaurants when they're hungry for more food options and convenience.
