Figaro’s Pizza, a take and bake and dine-in pizza chain with more than 100 stores nationally, celebrates its 25^th anniversary this fall.  As part of the celebration, a grand prize trip for two to Italy will take one lucky couple to the birthplace of pizza.

Other prizes include 1,000 Figaro’s $25 Gift Cards, 5,000 Large 2-topping Figaro’s pizzas, 10,000 Medium 1-topping Figaro’s Pizzas, 50,000 orders of Figaro’s Breadsticks, and 334,000 discounts on an Extra Large Figaro’s pizza.

The Figaro’s 25^th Anniversary Sweepstakes will run at participating locations, September 25th through December 3^rd, 2006 or while sweepstakes scratch-off cards last. There will be no purchase required to participate. “We’ve been serving pizza for 25 years and want to thank our loyal customers for their support,” says Ron Berger, CEO of Figaro’s.  “We are giving away huge prizes and hope people will come in and take advantage of the sweepstakes and our store specials.  This is just a token of our sincere appreciation for being a part of the communities in which we are located.” 

Figaro’s is offering a special 25^th Anniversary deal on its Sicilian Pan Pizza – only $9.99 for a Large 2-Topping pizza, which is earning raves as “Simply Delicioso!”   Other 25^th Anniversary offers are available exclusively to Fig-e-Deals club members who can sign up at Figgaros Franchise.

Figaro’s began in 1981 as the dream of two entrepreneurs, in Salem, Oregon, who wanted to meet the needs of busy families in an era when both parents often worked outside the home.  There was a universal demand for speed, quality, value and convenience, which still holds true today.  Figaro’s became a pioneer in Take & Bake pizza, adding ovens ten years later.  The Take & Bake option remains a significant portion of sales.  Today, stores offer customers their choice of baked, unbaked or a combination of the two.

Figaro’s has grown to more than 100 franchises nationwide and in Canada with a steadfast focus on the quality and freshness of its ingredients, the flavor of its products and its service.  Using only 100 percent real Mozzarella cheese, fresh vegetables and meats with no fillers or MSG, and fresh dough made daily, Figaro’s has grown and reinforced its trusted brand over time.
