Salvatore's Announces the Pizza Hall of Fame
The Salvatore's Pizza family is excited to pay tribute to all the loyal employees and support staff that have helped our company grow since 1978. Founder Salvatore "SoccerSam" Fantauzzo felt it was important to remember the great people that have been apart of the company since day 1 to today. Each year we will add new members to the Hall of Fame. If you are a former key employee that worked 10 or more years, manager or contributor please email soccersam@soccersam.com We are also looking for pictures from locations and employees, please email them with date and description, thank you!
