"Google Cloud continues to be a strategic and trusted partner in supporting our best-in-class digital platforms, particularly as we've experienced tremendous growth in consumer demand over the past year," Justin Falciola, CTO, Papa John's International, said in the release. "As one of the largest pizza delivery brands in the world, innovative technology is an essential component of our business model, allowing us to create great customer experiences and increase efficiencies throughout our restaurant operations.
