The assumptions, benchmarks, and drivers behind your pizza shop projections.
A pizza shop is modeled as one kitchen line with a ceiling on orders per day, because the make-line and the ovens, not the seats, cap what the shop can sell. Capacity is that ceiling times open days, utilization is the share actually sold, and the ticket is one order blended across a two-pizza family delivery and a slice-and-soda walk-in, around $22 to $28. Cost of goods is flour, cheese, toppings and boxes at 30 to 34 percent, so gross margin sits near the high sixties after the discount line, which here carries promo codes and the share of third-party delivery commission the shop absorbs rather than passing on.
Deck ovens, hood, dough room, walk-in and counter commonly total $150,000 to $400,000 for a strip-mall unit, far less if a second-generation space with a working hood is available, financed over ten years. One line can turn out about 140 orders on a busy day, and a settled shop sells 60 to 70 percent of that ceiling across a seven day week. An independent pizzeria does roughly $500,000 to $900,000 a year. Cheese is the exposed cost line, and the model holds debt service coverage at 1.25 or better.
The delivery apps set the shape of this business. They put a new shop in front of its neighbourhood from the first week, which is why the ramp here is short, and they take 15 to 30 percent of every order they bring, which is why the discount line matters more than the ticket. A shop that leans on the apps for most of its volume should expect that line well into the teens, and the model exists to show whether the kitchen can carry it. After that the result turns on labour: counter service keeps the roster under a full-service room of the same revenue, and drivers at peak are the part most often left out of a first plan.
