Caprinos Pizza hits 110 UK stores after latest openings
By 2030, the group is aiming to double its UK estate to over 200 locations, further expand its international footprint through master franchising, and increase average order spend through investments in brand and new product development
Caprinos Pizza has continued its rapid nationwide expansion with four new store openings over the past eight weeks.
These new openings include stores in Cambridge, Watford, East Sheen and most recently Kettering bringing its full estate to 110.
The openings build on a strong year-to-date performance, which has seen Caprinos achieve 14% like-for-like growth in H1 (vs H1 24), significantly outperforming well-established peers.
In addition, the period has seen Caprinos complete several strategic initiatives, including the opening of its newest market, Ireland, as well as new product launches that are trading ahead of expectations.
New store openings are an important component of Caprinos’ ambitious growth strategy, with plans to open an additional 15-18 new locations across the UK where Caprinos does not already have a strong presence.
By 2030, the group is aiming to double its UK estate to over 200 locations, further expand its international footprint through master franchising, and increase average order spend through investments in brand and new product development.
Gul Nawaz and Khalil Rehman, co-founders of Caprinos Pizza, said: “When we started Caprinos Pizza, we knew there was a gap in the market for delicious and innovative flavour combinations at affordable prices. Today, 110 stores later and in a period of strong financial and strategic progress, we are firmly on the way to cementing Caprinos as a high-street staple and the takeaway destination of choice for consumers across the UK.
“As we look ahead, we aim to leverage this positive momentum from H1 and are confident in our goal to open 200 locations by 2030. We look forward to realising our exciting growth potential and outperforming well established brands by delivering affordable and innovative pizza to every major town and city.”
