Ranch's Story
Ranch Pizza got it's start as a pop-up pizza delivery shop, operating out of rented kitchen space, serving customers at nearby watering holes in SE Portland, OR. What began as an experimental side project between two guys who shared a love of pizza, quickly turned into a thriving business with a great product and a loyal following. Now, in a partnership with Title Bout Restaurant Group, we have signed a lease on a space in the fantastic Woodlawn neighborhood in NE Portland, and are planning for a grand opening in the Spring or early Summer of 2018!
We can't think of a more appropriate means of raising the additional funds we need than from the folks who helped us get here in the first place, and all we want is to bring our pizza to as many people as possible.
Restaurants are expensive to build, license, and operate, which is why we're asking our dedicated fans for some help in the process in exchange for some great perks once we're open. With the money we raise, we'll be able to offer our pizza, salads and sides, along with a great selection of draft beer, wine, and specialty cocktails in a great new (and family friendly) setting, open 7 days-a-week for lunch and dinner.
So far we've raised enough money through loans, and with help from family, to get started on the design, licensing, and early construction phases of the project. The additional funds we raise through this campaign will help us complete construction, purchase a sign, pay for painting and artwork, buy all the equipment we need, purchase inventory and help pay our employees during the opening process.
We really went HARD to make the perks of this campaign attractive to all you Ranch fans. And we really tried to stick to what everyone is in this for to begin with: THE PIZZA! You'll find some very straight forward offers of food and drink, some classic Ranch swag, and also some special discount perks that could really pay off in the end. We're here to show our appreciation, so most of the perks are a better deal than what you might get once we're open for regular business.
We really appreciate you taking the time to check out our campaign, and we're really excited to make this restaurant happen. Check back for our video coming soon for some behind the scenes action.
Also, in the mean time be sure to come by for a taste of our pizza inside the awesome bar, Poison's Rainbow (www.poisonsrainbow.com), designed and owned by Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse!
