Leading pizza franchise, Papa John’s, has announced the opening of its latest Heswall store, located on the Wirral, Merseyside.  New franchisee, Vishal Mohanan, who runs the outlet also has plans to open further Papa John’s as the Company continues to expand rapidly throughout the UK.

Vishal Mohanan explains: “My experience in the fast food industry includes eight years at a well-known high street pizza brand, plus as business manager for another leading food franchise.  I now have a young family and so was keen to invest our future by taking on my own business.  I was looking for a quality franchised offering and that’s where Papa John’s came in.

“I believe I’m joining the Company just at the right time as the brand is focused on growth and this brings further opportunities to open more stores,” confirms Vishal.  “So far I’ve been impressed!  The team are friendly and approachable and the franchising process has been straight forward.

“My training has also been thorough,” continues Vishal.  “Three weeks at head office followed by three weeks gaining hands-on experience working in-store has really revealed why Papa John’s is so successful.  The difference is the quality: the fresh dough, sauce and toppings are all premium ingredients and combine to create the most delicious pizza!  The BETTER INGREDIENTS.  BETTER PIZZA concept really does keep customers hungry for more!

“Myself and my team are now looking forward to serving-up Papa John’s top-quality pizza to residents of Heswall and the surrounding area.”

There are now more than 350 Papa John’s in the UK and over 5,000 stores in more than 40 international markets. Papa John's is one of the largest pizza companies in the world and has opportunities for franchisees throughout the UK.  Papa John’s is actively recruiting for new franchisees and provides all the training and assistance needed to set up, including help with location selection and full turn-key opening of the store.
