National Pizza Day

For every pizza you bought on Thursday 9th February, our restaurants will donate a pizza to a local charitable cause. Thanks to you all, we’ll be donating a whopping 13,344 pizzas! This means that tens of thousands of people up and down the UK, who may not normally be able to, will benefit from the joy of our sourdough pizza.

The inspiration for this idea came from our Neapolitan roots. In Naples, there is a long-standing tradition called caffè sospeso, where a customer pays for two coffees but only receives one. The other paid-for coffee is later given to another customer who isn’t able to pay themselves. It’s a custom that beautifully reflects Neapolitan values of kindness and support for the community, which are also key pillars of our identity here at Franco Manca.

In challenging times like these, it’s more important than ever that we all do our bit to help those in need. Thank you to everyone who got involved!
