Papa Gino’s Announces Retail Pizza Expansion into Walmart, Market Basket in 22 States
Papa Gino’s, New England’s neighborhood pizzeria, announced the availability of its retail frozen pizza at nearly 600 Walmart, Market Basket, and Hannaford locations across the United States. For the first time ever, the over 80-year-old Italian family recipe is available in retailers outside of New England and available now in 22 states. Made in partnership with Artisan Chef Manufacturing Company (ACMC), a new production process better reflects Papa Gino’s signature taste. The company has plans to roll out the retail product to other locations both locally and outside of New England in 2022.
The new frozen pizza is created at ACMC’s state-of-the-art food production facilities in Lawrence, Massachusetts, using authentic ingredients, made in stone hearth ovens and placed in blast circular freezers to preserve quality. The pizzas feature the same Papa Gino’s signature three-cheese blend and vine-ripened tomato sauce that is used in restaurants so that Papa Gino’s lovers from all over can bring the familiar taste of their favorite New England Pizzeria home with them in a convenient frozen format to make right in their own kitchens.
