A fast-casual pizza CEO's recipe for success moving forward

Easily served contact-free and beloved by families, pizza has proved to be uniquely resilient during the COVID-19 crisis. But what about the fast-casual pizza space, which relies so heavily on the in-store experience? Brands like Oath Pizza, which launched in Nantucket in 2015, have been forced to pivot more than traditional pizza chains, and for Oath that's included investments in things like meal kits, a food truck, and ghost kitchens. 
Oath president and CEO Drew Kellogg joins the podcast to talk about his recipe for future success, which includes designing restaurants to serve customers more safely, conveniently, and flexibly while still offering a solid price value. He also discusses the brand's strategic partnership with Aramark, which runs foodservice mostly at nontraditional venues where traffic all but disappeared due to the pandemic.
