What is Todd Penegor doing at Papa Johns?
This week’s episode of the Restaurant Business podcast A Deeper Dive features Todd Penegor, who has been CEO of the Atlanta-based pizza chain for just over a year.
This is a great conversation. Penegor has helped Papa Johns regain sales momentum during a particularly difficult time, both for the sector and the fast-food business in general. The company has done this through a variety of means.
We talk about the company’s focus on its core pizza. Todd talks about that effort, and he gives some hints at what may be coming.
We talk about technology, including artificial intelligence, and the work being done on that front. We talk about loyalty. And we talk extensively about third-party delivery, and how Papa Johns can maintain its first-party service even as aggregators take more delivery business away.
We also talk about marketing, and especially local marketing. Papa Johns has worked to shift marketing back to local after moving that spending nationally under the previous management.
We’re talking pizza on A Deeper Dive so please check it out.
