When you run a foodservice establishment, it’s common to be managing a balancing act between your team members, your customers and your bottom line. Satisfying all of these requires versatility, value and proven success.

And pizza is a solution that does it all! Found on more than 30% of entrée menus, pizza is a popular offering enjoyed by 83% of Americans at least once a month. Pizza can be made in a wide variety of styles inspired from around the globe - including foldable, deep dish, thin crust, wood fired and fried. And choosing the right crust allows you to do the things you need to in order to help your bottom line, including using limited labor and streamlining inventory.

Here are all of the ways that using the right crust can help you succeed:

Leveraging limited labor

From the lingering impacts of COVID to increases in minimum wage, you’re not alone if you’re focused on how to best use limited labor.

Chef Tom Santos, a member of The Doughminators™ says, “This is where pre-made dough and crusts can have a significant impact on customer visits.”

Referring to BONICI® products, for example, Chef Tom continues, “Instead of having inexperienced labor make dough, which can result in inconsistencies, you now can offer a dependable and appealing product quickly and easily.”

Using a streamlined inventory

Choosing to use dough balls, parbaked crusts and flatbreads, for example, allows you to use one product in multiple ways. Specifically, choosing any BONICI® dough ball, crust or flatbread means that you can create all kinds of pizzas and flatbreads plus appetizers and sandwiches, from savory to sweet and traditional to trendy.

Working across dayparts and all kinds of kitchens

Crusts are blank canvas that can be used in any mealtime arena - breakfast, lunch, dinner, appetizer and even dessert. In addition, many crusts, including BONICI® products are easy for all skill levels to use and versatile enough to use frozen or thawed, defrosted and held for days or topped and refrozen to cook later. What could be simpler?
