Clif Roberson makes up one third of the trio of local school-friends-turned-entrepreneurs who have also recently opened Papa John’s in Merthyr Tydfil and Cwmbran. Clif explains: “We were looking for an exciting business opportunity and have certainly found it in Papa John’s! The company is growing rapidly and the support is tremendous.
“So far, we have all been surprised and delighted by the popularity of new our stores, both of which have already doubled original forecasts, seeing strong repeat business. Hot on the heels of Cwmbran and Merthyr, we are now looking forward to introducing Papa John’s to Pontypridd, plus opening two further Welsh stores this autumn!
“Pontypridd is a superb location for us,” continues Clif. “Just over ten miles north of Cardiff, the town has a sizeable student population. We have acquired a former KFC site, adjacent to the University which is a large modern building overlooking the main road, so we anticipate lots of passing trade keen to taste our tempting pizza!
“Staff have already been trained-up in our other stores and so are ready to deliver on our Papa John’s promise of ‘Better Ingredients, Better Pizza’,” confirms Clif. “We only use the freshest ingredients for a better natural flavour and our Welsh customers just keep coming back: they really are hungry for more!”
