History
The first Snappy Tomato Pizza was opened by Robert Rotunda in Fort Mitchell in 1978. Rotunda went to a horse race and put all of his money on a horse named “Snappy Tomato.” The horse won and Rotunda took all of his winnings and opened the first Snappy Tomato Pizza restaurant. In 1981 the company began franchising. In 1993, Snappy Tomato Pizza was purchased by Charles H. Deters.
Snappy Tomato has bought two other pizza franchises. Those two include a Cincinnati-based pizza franchise, "Spooners Pizza" in 1993, and seven Louisville, KY based franchises, "Pizza Magia" in 2005.
In July 2022, Tim Gayhart, Snappy Tomato Pizza's largest franchisee and area developer purchased the company from The Deters Company. [1]
