Ready to hear the scoop on all the fun changes at Victory Lane Pizza this last year? From turning our dining room into a delicious coffee shop to launching online ordering and even rolling out our own food truck – it’s been quite the ride.

Here’s the juicy backstory:

Back in 2018, a group of friends who met as volunteer firefighters years prior, started a company dabbling in mowing lawns and doing snow removal (ahh, the good ol’ simple days). But then the pandemic hit, boredom struck and we thought “Let’s shake things up!” So, last year when the chance to buy Victory Lane Pizza came knocking, we seized it like a hot slice out of the oven!

We’re on a mission to crank up the heat on our brand! We have been sprucing up the joint, investing in our awesome team, and giving back to our communities in big ways.
