Our History
FRESHSLICE Pizza was founded in 1999 by Ray Russell in Vancouver, British Columbia. Ray decided to find a fresher way to prepare the pizza he loves. Starting with a single restaurant, FRESHSLICE quickly grew into a thriving ‘by the slice’ and delivery business.
FRESHSLICE is able to offer guests delicious pizza at prices lower than most of our competitors, so you can enjoy the pizza you love, more often!
Foodies love FRESHSLICE and the company has quickly grown to over 100 Locations across
Canada. Our team is committed to making your experience truly memorable. We want you to be regulars, to share your stories with us, and in turn maybe hear a few of ours. The most important thing for us is that with every visit you walk away with a great experience from beginning to end.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your total training from start to end will consist of 4 weeks. This consists of 2 weeks of training prior to the restaurant opening and then two weeks post opening. First, you start with an On The Job Evaluation (O.J.E.) which consists of a 1 day evaluation & training period. Your O.J.E. will be a great starting point for us to not only gain a better understanding of your current knowledge and learning speed, but also for you to get a better understanding of us as a brand and future partners. After you have completed your O.J.E., you will be scheduled for your management training which takes 2 weeks. From there you will receive ongoing support from our business coaches and the head office team.
There is no industry experience required for becoming a franchise partner. We are looking for people who are driven entrepreneurs that focus on quality and service. Having managed a team, worked in a restaurant, or have run a small business is beneficial but not mandatory.
If you pass the screening phone call, you will be invited to our office for a 2-hour interview. Depending on your province/location you will be invited for a video call. If you pass your first interview, you will be scheduled for your second interview. If you pass your second interview, you will be briefed on the official steps to begin the process of either taking over an existing location or opening a new Freshslice Pizza restaurant.
Normally, it will take 2-6 months to take over an existing Freshslice Pizza restaurant or build a new one.
Yes, we have partnered with a few banks to help you build your dream for a joint venture or a full franchise. But we also have in-house financing for Joint Ventures if the banks will not finance your proposal.
