Pita Pit featured in Vancouver Business Journal
Pita Pit was featured in an article today in the Vancouver Business Journal for Dennis and Laura Sallee as they just opened their fourth Pita Pit titled, “Fresh success in a down economy.” Dennis Sallee discusses the success that he and Laura have found in the Vancouver market since opening their first Pita Pit in 2008 as well as the healthy, customizable food options that Pita Pit makes that are perfect for everyone. In addition, Dennis and Laura are only the second Pita Pit in the 300-plus unit franchise that has the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine that provides over 100 different drink choices.

Fresh success in a down economy
By: Jodie Gilmore
Give the customer what they want and watch every penny – this is the bread and butter of Dennis Sallee’s success with the Vancouver-area Pita Pit restaurants he co-owns with his wife, Laura.
The Sallees have opened three additional Pita Pits since their first in Fisher’s Landing in 2008: one in Hazel Dell, one in Orchards and one in Ashland, Oregon. Sallee hopes to open “at least two more” Pita Pits in the Vancouver area – possibly at the Westfield Shopping Mall as well as a mobile unit.
Sallee said he would choose his locations carefully, because “it takes three daily rushes to make one of these work” (lunch, dinner and catered platters of sliced pita sandwiches).
