The South Park Meadows corporate-owned location of Mr Gatti's Pizza in Texas has been acquired by OneRyan, the family office of Dallas-based businessman and philanthropist G. Brint Ryan.
With the acquisition, Mr Gatti's officially transitions to a 100% franchise-owned system, a significant milestone in the brand's growth strategy, according to a press release.
Ryan and his wife, Amanda, CEO of OneRyan, also are preparing to open Mr Gatti's Pizza in Big Spring, Texas. It is slated to open Nov. 1.
"This marks an exciting chapter for Mr Gatti's," Jim Phillips, CEO of Mr Gatti's Pizza, said in the release. "Brint and Amanda Ryan bring not only business expertise, but also a passion for community investment. Their acquisition of South Park Meadows and the launch of Big Spring signal the strength of our franchise system and the robust opportunities which lie ahead."
"I've been fortunate to see firsthand the impact Mr Gatti's has in creating spaces where families can come together," Amanda Ryan said in the release. "Acquiring South Park Meadows and opening in Big Spring is about carrying forward that legacy — combining great food, entertainment and community connection."
With more than 234 locations open or in development across Texas and the Southeastern U.S., Mr Gatti's continues to attract entrepreneurs seeking a proven, family-focused franchise opportunity.
