Pyramid Pizza, sometimes simply called Pyramid, is a multinational pizza restaurant chain, with headquarters in Tyrámen, the capital city of Walneria. Being originally located exclusively in Walneria, its expansion into the world began after the Silent Revolutions, with the first out-of-Walneria shop being opened in Obszariec, Malskia, in 1991.
History
Pyramid Pizza was founded as a single shop in Tyrámen in summer 1978 by Karl Mache and Josef Lakda, being originally named "Pizza Latinvm". They operated under this name until 1983, when they recieved a cease and desist letter from a small pizza franchise located in Lubov, which has been using this name and has registered it as a trademark. After that, the pizzeria has undergone a transformation, eventually settling on the name "Pyramid Pizza" sometimes in mid 1984.
In 1985, they experienced massive growth and opened two other shops, creating a franchise out of the single restaurant. In the following years, thanks to multiple innovations, such as at the time unusual zoning and delivery times guarantee, the franchise managed to grow to a chain of approximately 50 shops by 1990, located in Tyrámen and suburban areas around it. First big venture of the company into international trade was the establishment of a restaurant in the capital of neighboring Malskia, Obszariec, with local pizza makers aligning to the company, but not to the general scheme and maintaining a sort of autonomy, therefore establishing an international franchise. This success led to the creation of multiple more restaurants across central Argis in the 1990's, with the number of locations increasing fifteen fold in just 5 years between 1995 and 2000.
In 2003, the company crossed a benchmark set by the competition law of Walneria and has been forced to decentralize and cede much of the structure's competence to each locations' discression in order to prevent anti-monopoly strikes. This decentralized structure allowed locations to diverge from each other, despite keeping the necessary minimum demanded by the franchise owners. Economist Howards Johanssen coined the saying "No two pyramids are alike", comparing the differences in constructions of pyramids across the wurld to the divergence in menus and discounts in respective restaurants.
