Get a Free Slice of the Action with Papa John himself

Tuesday 24th August

John Schnatter, founder of Papa John’s Pizza, will be giving away 100 free pizzas in Caterham to celebrate the opening of the UK company’s new £5m dough plant. Schnatter, who founded Papa John’s in 1984 and has grown the chain into the world’s third-largest pizza company, will be visiting Papa John’s Caterham store on Croydon Road on Thursday 26th August.  John will be giving away 100 free pizzas at 1pm. John said: “I’m looking forward to giving some of our 100% fresh dough pizzas to the people of Caterham to celebrate the opening of our new dough plant in Milton Keynes.

“We’ve opened the facility because the UK is a key international growth area for Papa John’s, and is setting the benchmark in terms of quality and expansion for other countries across the world. I founded the company on our ‘Better Ingredients. Better Pizza’ brand promise and it’s this commitment to quality that is proving so successful here in the UK.”

Papa John’s has nearly 140 restaurants across the UK. The company has achieved 18 consecutive quarters of comparative sales growth, with a two-year sales growth of 23.3 per cent.

Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, USA, Papa John's is the world's third largest pizza company. For 10 of the last 11 years, U.S. consumers have rated Papa John's No. 1 in customer satisfaction among all national pizza chains in the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI). Papa John's also was honored by Restaurants & Institutions Magazine (R&I) with the 2009 Gold Award for Consumers’ Choice in Chains in the pizza segment and was named 2007 Pizza Today Chain of the Year.
