General Assembly Pizza Launches New Website, Expanded eCommerce Offerings

TORONTO , August 05 /Businesswire/ - General Assembly Holdings Limited (the “Company” or “GA Pizza”) (TSXV: GA), a fast-casual, Toronto pizza restaurant turned omnichannel consumer packaged goods (“CPG”) brand, has launched a new direct to consumer (“DTC”) website for pizza lovers, which includes a highly anticipated one-time purchase option for their freshly frozen, naturally leavened pizza. The new website also showcases a fresh new look courtesy of a dynamic rebrand, including a new expansive colour palette, expressive typography, organic illustrations, and a new GA Pizza logo and siren. The new brand system will be seen across all channels, says GA Pizza Founder and Chief Executive Officer Ali Khan Lalani, “We needed a brand that could go everywhere with us and meet our pizza lovers wherever they are. From the retail shelf to doorsteps, to pop-up pizza experiences, and of course, our restaurant. The new GA brand exemplifies the versatility we need as we continue to scale and take pizza to new heights.”

Ali Meyer, Creative Director for GA Pizza, adds, “Expanding our offering and developing a consumer packaged goods line created new consumer touchpoints and sparked new conversations around how our brand should be experienced. Our new system is as bold, maximal, and fun as pizza is to all of us.” GA Pizza’s new logo, a winged pizza box, celebrates and elevates a timeless pizza ritual. The logo, named Levain, is a nod to the company’s mission of delighting pizza lovers through pizza experiences; from a pizza box with more than one pizza in it, to carving out an entirely new CPG category—premium freezer-to-table pizza—to address a growing segment of pizza lovers who crave quality and convenience without compromise.

Coming off a record-setting Q2 with frozen pizza sales up 70% over Q1, GA Pizza developed a true omnichannel brand experience that functions effortlessly across multiple environments, from retail applications to digital environments. Paired with enhanced eCommerce capabilities and a new path to purchase, it signals a next chapter for the company, as GA Pizza scales into retail and develops a complementary DTC experience. While the DTC channel is a space for GA Pizza’s community to thrive and grow—it also drives innovation across the company, with rapid feedback loops and instant access to consumer behaviour and insights. GA Pizza’s new eCommerce offerings were largely driven by subscriber feedback—with convenience and customization cited as key needs. New offerings include:

  • A one-time purchase option: a convenient new path to purchase for pizza lovers who want to enjoy GA Pizza’s premium home delivery pizza experience on-demand, whenever they want it
  • For subscribers, added convenience and control features to accounts—increasing delivery frequency options to 4, 6, or 8-week delivery (available for all stack sizes), and a new ‘Skip Next Delivery’ option
  • Carbon offsets for all home deliveries

Today’s announcements arrive on the heels of GA Pizza securing a new master production facility and a new food brokerage partner, Propel Natural Brands. As the company continues to scale, GA Pizza remains steadfast in its commitment to be ‘better’ and contribute to a healthy planet. Beginning today, GA Pizza is measuring and offsetting all carbon emissions for their home delivery, and aims to implement a company-wide carbon neutral strategy by Q4. GA Pizza has partnered with Carbonzero, a leading Canadian carbon solutions provider that supports companies in measuring and reducing their carbon footprint.
