Washington D.C.-based Timber Pizza Co. is setting its sights on expansion into new states. The brand is focused on partnering with multi-unit franchisees, according to a press release.

Timber Pizza Co. has opened six franchised locations in just over a year, with recent growth in Charleston, South Carolina., Raleigh, and Durham, North Carolina. With additional deals in development for Alexandria and Richmond, Va., the brand is strategically expanding its footprint while remaining intentional about the people and communities it joins.

"The success we've seen over the past year has reinforced that we're building something special," Chris Brady, co-founder and president of Timber Pizza Co., said in the release. "From opening multiple franchise locations in a short period of time to seeing how deeply Timber resonates in each community, it's clear there's real demand for what we do. As we look to enter new markets, we're excited to partner with operators who share our passion for quality, hospitality, and building neighborhood restaurants that people truly care about."

Timber Pizza Co. is seeking entrepreneurs in areas such as Atlanta, Georgia, and Charlotte, Savannah and Wilmington, North Carolina.

"There's still a tremendous amount of white space for Timber across the Southeast and beyond," Luke Watson, CEO of Timber Pizza Co., said in the release. "At its core, Timber is about creating a shared experience, a place where food, community, and lifestyle come together and feel like home. As we grow, my focus is on making the franchisee journey as seamless as possible so our partners can spend less time navigating systems and more time building spaces that bring people together and truly belong in their neighborhoods."
