Today we’d like to introduce you to Brett Tuft.
Hi Brett, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
We started as a food truck!
My son needed more individual help at home when he was 2, I left my Executive Chef job, bought a 1937 dodge truck and transformed it into a mobile pizza kitchen(2013), wood fired oven included. Our goal was to offer a truly healthy, great tasting pizza for both adults and children. After 4 years of operating the truck, we were approached to open a brick and mortar. Our truck has since moved to catering only and our store is almost 9 years old!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
There have been many obstacles/tests with a 80year old vehicle, but the old girl is still running and serving weddings, company parties, graduations, or any other pizza party needs. As far as the store front, building a brand, staffing, supply chain problems, COVID, inflation, family issues, goverment issues, etc…the restaurant industry is not easy!
But, we’ve made it over 8 years and have many loyal clients.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
