“What’s really impressive about Sauce franchising is that we’re there from the very beginning,” says Ray Zandi, Vice President of US Business Development for MTY Group. “When a franchisee first inquires, we’ll help them do their due diligence and make sure they understand the business and what they’re getting into. Then we take it a step further. They’ll have real estate support, support with advertising, support with marketing, and most of all, support with operations. So there’s always someone there to assist with any questions they have. The franchise support is endless.”
Hands On Franchise Training
At Sauce Pizza and Wine, we believe in learning by doing. Our hands-on franchise training program is designed to immerse you in every aspect of running a flourishing Sauce restaurant. You’ll spend time in one of our certified training locations, working alongside experienced team members to master our proven systems and processes.
Our comprehensive training covers everything from food preparation and customer service to inventory management and financial reporting. You’ll learn the ins and outs of our menu, including our signature pizzas and pasta dishes, as well as our wine selection process. We’ll also guide you through our point-of-sale system, teaching you how to efficiently manage orders and track sales.
But we don’t stop at operations. Our training program also includes modules on leadership and team management, helping you develop the skills you need to build and motivate a high-performing staff. By the time you complete our training, you’ll be fully equipped to bring the Sauce Pizza and Wine experience to your community.

We also provide regular check-ins and performance reviews to ensure your restaurant is meeting our high standards of quality and service.

“One of the benefits is that we’re not just Sauce Pizza and Wine, we’re also an MTY Group franchise brand,” says Patrick Lacek, Director of Operations for Sauce Pizza and Wine. “We have different franchise concepts in other areas. This is what we do. We understand what bandwidth is, we understand what you need for marketing support for POS support, training and operations support. That’s why you franchise. We’ll give you our expertise, we just need you to invest and grow with us.”
