Growth Makes Happy Joe’s Happy

 

Customer frequency matters. When you are a restaurant, looking at your concept, trying to drive top-line sales and bottom-line profits, start with the menu. That according to Steven Johnson Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions®. That said, leveraging the menu to increase customer frequency without operational disruption is an art and Happy Joe’s Pizza & Ice Cream can show you how.  Let’s look at what they are doing.  

Yes, regular readers of this blog know that people love pizza. People love burgers. For the creative minds at Happy Joe’s Pizza & Ice Cream, combining the two just makes sense – especially since they’ve mastered the art of developing extraordinary pizza creations.

There big idea was to turn the most popular Happy Joe’s pizzas into burgers, using the same toppings found on its innovative pizza menu. Already available at Happy Joe’s corporate locations, the new pizza burgers are launching at franchise locations on Friday, Dec. 1. 

The Happy Joe’s Pizza Burger menu includes:

Sloppy Joe Burger: Pickles, mustard and blended cheese top this burger alongside Joe’s Sloppy Joe meat.

Taco Burger: The world-famous Taco Joe Pizza on a burger! Served with HJ’s Mexican bean sauce and blended cheese. Drizzled with nacho cheese sauce and lettuce, tomato, and chips.

Taco Supreme Burger: Just like the HJ’s Taco Supreme Pizza, adding black olives, jalapeños, and sour cream to the Taco Burger.

BLT Burger: HJ’s burger topped with pizza sauce, mozzarella, Canadian bacon, bacon, lettuce, and mayo – just like the pizza.

Mac n Cheese Burger: Macaroni and cheddar cheese transform this classic burger into a classy delight.

HJ Special Burger: HJ’s burger topped with pizza sauce, mozzarella, Canadian bacon, and crispy sauerkraut. Just as unique as the namesake pizza.
