Rico Lunardi’s journey from Philadelphia back to Pittsburgh and from working in management information systems to running his own pizzeria is both insightful and inspiring. We talked about the dynamics of running a family business, the thought process behind location expansion, and the challenges of staffing and retention. He also discusses his reasons for bringing New York-style pizza to our beloved city. Rico shares some of his factors that go into site selection, and contrary to the age-old mantra, location, location, location is not always a practical approach for deciding upon new locations. If you’ve ever wondered what really goes into growing and building a local business, you’re going to enjoy this episode. After listening to Rico, it’s easy to see that his love for food, family, and Pittsburgh play a prominent role in his life and business.
