He explained that he started the company seven years ago with his brother. At first the company was in a small 3,000 foot space. They wanted to not only offer quality pizza ovens but were interested in being a “one stop shop” for every pizza business. The rotator deck oven is able to cook 200-250 pizzas in one hour. The unique aspect of this particular oven is the programmable touch screen. The screen has an automatic turn on and turn off. You can set the oven to be cranked up by the time you get to the store to open your pizzeria. There is a very special insulation used in the ovens which allow them to cook their pizza at 900 degree F.<\/p>\n

The oven line includes Neapolitan style ovens, rotating deck ovens and electric ovens. They offer a wide variety of pizza tools, pizza ovens, both wood fired and electric. They also do consulting. He stressed that the company is very customer service oriented.<\/p>\n
