Pita Pit featured in The Bryan Eagle

Pita Pit was recently featured in The Bryan Eagle entitled "Pita Pit execs hungry for another shot." The story features Pita Pit corporate store manager Marc Foglesong taking over two College Station locations and lends insight to his climb through the ranks of Pita Pit to enjoy success in the company. It also provides perspective from Pita Pit vice president of brand development on why College Station was worthy of a corporate takeover, as well as the company’s plans to add 10 new locations within the next two years.

Pita Pit's corporate executives hope their recent takeover of the chain's two locations in College Station will be followed by 10 new eateries in the area in the next two years.

The Pita Pit in Northgate at 403 University Drive reopened Oct. 4, and company representatives expect the store on South Texas Avenue at Holleman Drive to reopen in early November. The eateries were shuttered in the summer after the former owner looked into selling them or closing and moving them.

But College Station is too good of an area to allow the eateries to stay closed, said Peter Riggs, vice president of brand development for Pita Pit USA.

"If it's a great location like in College Station, we take it over and keep it running," Riggs said.
