Papa Murphy’s Newest Location in Four Points Centre
Can “CREATE” More Than Just Pizza
Papa Murphy’s supports Viper Band in 2-day kickoff event
AUSTIN, TX – August 27th, 2013: Papa Murphy’s, the country’s largest and fastest growing take-and-bake pizza chain, is opening their 17th location in the Austin area at 11404 FM 2222 in the Four Points Centre, in front of Target. Prior to its opening, this location has already joined forces with students, teachers and parents of the Vandergrift High School Viper Band. The store, which opens August 30, will celebrate with a two-day fundraiser for the band boosters Wednesday, Sept. 4 and Thursday, Sept. 5. For two days only, this new Papa Murphy’s will sell a total of 1,000 Large Signature Pepperoni Pizzas for just $5 each. Viper Band Booster co-chair, Bill Parrott, adds “we have the potential to raise $5,000 if we can get 500 donations each day!”
The new Papa Murphy’s at 620 & FM 2222 is the first prototype of Papa Murphy’s new modern store design, aptly named “CREATE.” Store owner Doug Miller has decided to use the new “CREATE” theme to reach those who “CREATE” in the Austin community. Papa Murphy’s first fundraiser will support the Viper Band, who creates magical halftime shows for their beloved fans. This is just the first in a long line of community groups Papa Murphy’s aims to support through fundraising.
With more than 1,350 locations, Papa Murphy’s is widely acknowledged by consumers for excellence in value, quality, variety, service and convenience. The company was just ranked “#1 Rated Pizza Chain” in the U.S. for a third straight year by consumers on Zagat’s Annual Fast Food Survey. A key driver of Papa Murphy’s success is the connection the consumer has with the product. Not only do they decide which fresh, high-quality ingredients top their pizza, but customers have the pleasure of baking it right in their own ovens for a piping hot, delicious meal whenever they want. Owner Doug Miller likes to call it the “moment of pizza perfection.” Nothing brings the family together like a delicious Papa Murphy’s pizza straight from their own oven.
