The Hot Rocks Oven is a new way to cook pizza, combining a conveyor for speed and stones for high quality pizzas, said CFO Vincent Tourigny.

"Restaurant operators work hard," he said in an interview with FastCasual. "Our objective with the Hot Rocks oven is to offer a solution to make their lives easier. Hot Rocks offers a modern twist to serving real traditional stone-cooked pizza with a fraction of the work involved."

After installing a Hot Rocks Pizza Oven, restaurants have experienced:

• Over 5% sales increases year-after-year with some clients experiencing over 20% sales increases.
• Over 6% hike with overall satisfaction with the company scores.
• Over 3% increase in pace of the experience scores.
• Over 4% increase in food quality scores: Not a single complaint about burnt food 90 days post-installation

The oven, which has a granite stone conveyor that provides a consistent crispy crust in record time, is the result of many years of research and development combined with concrete customer insight to redesign the conventional pizza oven that is now revolutionizing the pizza oven industry, Tourigny said.
