Look How Far We've Come

Pizza Hut franchisees exemplify the entrepreneurial spirit, which launched our system back in 1958. Through interest and initiative, the Pizza Hut system was able to develop new territories in the United States and overseas.

Today, franchisees and joint-venture partnerships account for more than half of the Pizza Hut system's total units. Our development on the international front is a good indication of the growth that has characterized our system. Following the opening of the first international restaurant in Canada in 1968, Pizza Hut restaurants quickly appeared in Mexico, South America, Australia, Europe, the Far East and Africa. Today, Pizza Hut operates in more than 100 countries and territories throughout the world.
