Celebrating two years of franchising, Crust Pizza Bars has confirmed plans for its first franchise in Western Australia and rewarded its franchisees with a three day conference on Hamilton Island.

Crust used the conference to outline its 2010 vision and menu, encourage involvement in team building activities, run a series of workshops and present the annual Franchisee Awards.

Michael Logos, CEO and co-founder of Crust Gourmet Pizza Bars said “We have recently launched our new website and a social media presence for the business, which aims to build a community of loyal customers who we can reward and engage with to make sure we are providing the best service.”

“We are also heading into a strong growth phase as we have appointed our area development managers for Western Australia and will be opening our first franchise there early next year,” he said.

The Franchisee Awards were held on the last day of the conference and Crust Castle Hill took out the Franchisee of the Year award in recognition of its excellence across customer service, operational compliance, product quality and local area marketing.
