For the Gluten-Averse, a Menu That Works

PIZZA - need a new location

Hi everyone~it's Cyndy from Grassroots Baking Company.
I make the gf pizza crust for Oliver's. I am requesting your help in locating a new restaurant to meet our gf pizza needs. I have a whole freezer full of crusts just waiting to be delivered! The gf pizza had grown to be 60% of Oliver's pizza business so the profitability is there for the right venue.
Thanks a bunch!
Cyndy

You can either leave your ideas in a post below or you can e-mail me at gig_membership@hotmail.com and I'll be sure to pass the information along to Cyndy.
Thanks!
Jenn
