padding: 0px; outline: none;">It only took 100 years or so, but the Rosati family has finally broken into the&nbsp;Franchise 500&copy;. It's an honor that would probably please--and likely confuse--Saverio "Sam" Rosati, who began serving&nbsp;pizza&nbsp;at his Italian restaurant in Chicago near the turn of the 20th century. In 1964, his children took his old-world recipes and opened&nbsp;Rosati's, one of the first pizza joints to offer delivery, and a local legend was born.</p> <div style="margin: 5px 0px 10px 20px; padding: 10px; outline: none; border--width: 5px; border--style: solid; border--color: #edf0f3; border-bottom-width: 5px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: #edf0f3; line-height: 17px; font-size: 12px; width: 180px; float: right;"><img style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: none; width: 180px;" src="http://www.entrepreneur.com/dbimages/article/2013-franchise500-2.jpg" alt="Entrepreneur's 34th Annual Franchise 500"> <ul style="margin: 5px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; list-style: none; overflow: hidden;"> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; outline: none; background-image: none; background-: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Franchise 500: Our Full List</li> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; outline: none; background-image: none; background-: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Understanding the Ranking</li> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; outline: none; background-image: none; background-: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The Top 10 Franchises for 2013</li> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; outline: none; background-image: none; background-: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Top Franchise for 2013: Hampton Hotels</li> <li style="margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; outline: none; background-image: none; background-: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The Demographic Trends Driving Growth in Franchising</li> </ul> </div> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">For decades there was no need for franchising--so many aunts, uncles and cousins opened Rosati's Pizza locations around Chi-Town that the company grew organically. Five years ago, however, when demand outnumbered family members, the franchising program was born. There are now 108 Rosati's Pizza stores operating across 12 states.</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">So what pushed Rosati's ahead this year, enabling it to squeak onto our ranking at No. 499? President Marla Topliff credits a stronger general focus on the franchising component. Since 2011 the company has not only hired a dedicated franchise sales representative, but has also begun attending franchise shows and improved its nationwide distribution system.</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">The result? Last year Rosati's opened eight new stores; this year it's on track to open 15 to 20. What's more, the company has turned to a higher-margin family-friendly "pizza pub" concept, one that focuses on its Chicago roots, offering wings, beer and Bears games along with its full Italian menu, which features four styles of pizza.</p> <div style="margin: 0px 0px 10px 20px; padding: 0px; outline: none; float: right; width: 330px;"> <div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: none; font-size: 10px; color: #505050; line-height: 12px;">The &nbsp;Rosati family franchise has been serving pizza for five generations.</div> <div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: none; font-size: 10px; color: #505050; line-height: 12px; font-style: italic;">Photos courtesy of Rosatti's</div> </div> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">Topliff is proud of what the concept has accomplished so quickly, especially the fact that Rosati's has been able to make headway in a segment she says is saturated with 67,000 pizza places.</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">"The only thing you can do is tell your story and explain to customers why they should choose you over the competitor," she says. "It comes down to quality. The big three--Pizza Hut, Domino's and&nbsp;Papa John's--sell pizza based on price. We sell on quality."</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">But the company's greatest asset has to be the Rosati family, which still controls the business and serves as its main marketing tool. "This is a great brand, and the oldest surviving family pizza restaurant business in the United States," Topliff says. "There's not many brands owned by the same family for 100 years."&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; outline: none;">&nbsp;</p> </div> </div> </div> <p><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: none; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br><br>Read more:http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/225187#ixzz2O7GQhaFJ</span></p>

  • Story: Rosati's Pizza

    <p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px; font-family: 'helvetica neue', arial, helvetica, geneva, sans-serif; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 14px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; color: #333333; background-color: #f4e4c6;">Sam Rosati&rsquo;s father began the family&rsquo;s rich tradition of serving delicious Italian food to customers in his New York restaurant back in the late 1890&rsquo;s. After the turn of the century, the family moved to Chicago and opened yet another fine ltalian restaurant featuring &ldquo;Italian Style Pizza&rdquo;, a tasty appetizer consisting of homemade tomato sauce served on a crispy piece of bread. In 1927, following in his father&rsquo;s footsteps, Sam opened his own Italian restaurant in downtown Chicago. &nbsp;</p>
