    If you ever find yourself near exit 109 on Interstate I-95 between the hours of 11:00am-10:00pm on any day of the week, we encourage you to head over to Western Avenue in Augusta and indulge in what we consider to be the epicenter of Maines pizza revolution. Its fun, its fast, its simple, and theyre just getting started!

    It all started as an idea in June 2015. Not new to business, but completely new to pizza. Entrepreneur Spenser Ouellette decided to take the industry by the horns, adding a fast casual flare to the way Maine creates pizza. We pressed it, then cheesed it, topped it and perfected it, fusing it all together in our revolutionary 900 degree brick oven. Under three minutes later, Pizza Degree was born!

    The fast-casual pizza concept was first introduced to Ouellette while attending a restaurant conference in Las Vegas last fall. After seeing several quick service pizza restaurants on the strip, he soon realized that this was exactly the kind of innovation Maine was missing out on. With his knowledge of the restaurant business as owner of Burger Boy in Caribou, along with family ties to the Augusta area, came Ouellettes decision to bring his own concept to life. He purchased 265 Western Avenue in Augusta and opened franchise-ready Pizza Degree in December of 2015.

    Our concept is simple: fast casual pizza, brewed-in-Maine beer, and legendary customer service. Thats it! At Pizza Degree, we recognize that our most important assets are our customers. Knowing this, we put our customers in the drivers seat to a create your own pizza experience. Customers have the freedom to choose from one of our eight signatures pizzas, or work their way down our line of Pizza PIEoneers to create a one-of-a kind concoction that will leave you begging for another to take home!

    Although you cant go wrong with pizza and draft beer, we also offer smaller and lighter scale menu items where customers have the choice to create their own salads, pick from one of our signature salads, or choose from our delicious side and dessert options. All of our dough and sauces are made in house daily and from scratch. We also offer gluten friendly crust as an option for those with dietary sensitivities and restrictions.

    We are asked daily, What makes you different than the guys down the street? The answer is a simple one. If you go to other pizza establishments, you are going to end up waiting at least 15 minutes for mediocre service and frozen pizza. At Pizza Degree, we strive to do things with a degree of excellence, each and every time. We take pride in not only

    offering our customers fresh quality products, but doing it quickly, consistently, and on budget. That is the Pizza Degree difference.

    At Pizza Degree we do things a bit differently. We focus all of our time interacting with customers and ensuring they receive a unique experience and a quality product. So instead of wasting time counting change and unrolling coins, we decided to change the way Maine pays and remain a cash-free business. Thats right! Pizza Degree only accepts debit and credit cards. Not only does it make for a smoother transaction, its no longer a sanitary issue, and we can ensure the safety of our employees and each one of our guests.

    With the reward of operating a successful business comes certain challenges one must overcome to maintain daily operations. One of our biggest challenges we have faced in opening is having our customers better understand the reasons behind the idea of Pizza Degree not accepting cash. We want them know it is not done to inconvenience them. At the end of the day, not accepting cash cuts back on labor costs, improves speed of service, works as a precautionary measure for sanitation, ensures safety and security of our employees and customers and helps protect our investment as a company.

    Throughout the entire process from construction to our grand opening everyone in the area has been extremely helpful and supportive. It has been great getting to know the people in the community, and we look forward to getting to know more people every day. The challenges for the most part have been eliminated because of the great staff and support team we have set up behind us.

    Jamie Cyr at Performance Foodservice - NorthCenter has been great to work with and has been there every step of the way. Not only does he understand the area, he understands our needs and shares with us a commitment to quality. It is nice to work with a local distributor, one thats knowledgeable and goal oriented for the businesses that support them.

    With our first location thriving, we can now set our sights on our second location. As with any new business it is important for us to always look forward. As of now, we are looking to have our second location started as early as July 2016 and start franchising by the fall. Once we make our concept easy to replicate there will be no stopping us. As long as we stay true to our commitment to quality and put our customers first, theres no doubt we will eventually be able to branch outside of Maine and tackle all of New England.

    The Ultimate in Taste and Convenience

    Product Versatility

    Known for their firm texture and mild taste, our Empires Treasure Black Tiger and White Shrimp are processed within hours of harvesting and packaged in modern, temperature-controlled, HACCP- compliant facilities. All Empires Treasure are carefully inspected for size and quality, then individually quick-frozen and packaged for the freshest taste possible.

    Versatile and adaptable to a variety of bold flavors and seasonings, Empires Treasure Shrimp inspire creativity and innovation in the kitchen. Suitable to a variety of cooking methods and easy to prepare, we promise to deliver a superb tasting product to the table every time. Empires Treasure Black Tiger and White Shrimp are the ultimate in taste and convenience.

    Sizing Up Your Shrimp

    Versatile in both size and variety, Empires Treasure Shrimp offer something for everyone. Understanding the size of shrimp is as easy as knowing the count.

    The count refers to the number of shrimp per pound. For example, a 13/15 count provides 13 to 15 shrimp per pound. The smaller the number, the larger the shrimp. This means a 13/15 count yields larger individual shrimp than does a 16/20 count.

    Target Markets

    Empires Treasure shrimp is ideal for use in country clubs or casual or upscale establishments serving luncheon and dinner menus.

    EMPIRES TREASURE YELLOWFIN TUNA

    The Ultimate in Taste and Convenience.

    Empires Treasure Yellowfin Tuna products bring variety and good taste to seafood operators menus. Additionally, tunas natural nutritional attributes appeal to the growing segment of health-conscious consumers.

    The steak, loin, and block products are specially processed to help maintain the fresh qualities of the product even after freezing.

    NUTRITIONAL ADVANTAGESTuna is an excellent source of lean protein, vitamins and minerals, and is a wonderful way to excite the palate while maintaining a balanced diet. Tuna has more to offer than just great taste and nutrition, though. Tuna can also help lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Research has shown that omega-3 fatty acids, found in abundance in fatty fish like tuna, can help lower the risk of heart disease, ease the pain of arthritis, reduce asthma complications, and is essential in the growth and development of young children.

    FROZEN AND PACKAGING ADVANTAGESBecause Empires Treasure Yellowfin Tuna steaks and portions are frozen, they offer operators the following advantages:

    Individually vacuum packed 100% net weight product 100% usable product Consistent piece count Year round supply Less expensive than fresh per pound Provides food cost control

    OTHER ADVANTAGESEmpires Treasure Yellowfin Tuna products are specially processed which produces better appearance, a two year frozen shelf life, and an eight day shelf life for thawed product.

    All tuna is caught using hook & line methods (safe for dolphins, and better for the fish meat), which target large tuna and naturally encourage sustainability. Empires Treasure Yellowfin Tuna is pre-portioned and packaged at the source to ensure quality and consistent size.

    Product Distinctions

    ROMA LOLIGO PEALEII SQUIDThis product is caught in Rhode Island and then fully cleaned (no fins.) It is

    packed to 100% net deglazed weight, which means there is no water added to bring product up to net weight. It consistently outperforms other calamari brands on taste and tenderness. Chefs consistently pick this item in side by side taste tests. This product is popular among operators due to its domestic origin. This particular feature proves to increase sales volume as more of the population chooses to buy American.

    ROMA ASIAN LOLIGO SQUID This product is fully cleaned (no fins) and packed to 100% net

    deglazed weight, which means there is no water added to bring product up to net weight. It consistently outperforms other calamari brands on taste and tenderness. The quality rivals the Domestic Calamari without the higher cost. It is a great alternative when the chef wants to upgrade quality without paying a much higher price.

    LUIGIThe Luigi product is Todarodes squid, (also known as Japanese Flying Squid.) The Luigi label is fully cleaned

    with the fins removed. It is also packed to 100% net

    deglazed weight, which means no water added to bring product up to net weight. Todarodes squid is slightly wider and thicker than loligo squid, which gives the operator a wide ring for great plate coverage. It is a very tender calamari that out-cuts most of the other Todarodes squid on the market. It is a great value-priced item that can often save the restaurant money without sacrificing quality.

    ASSOLUTIAssoluti branded squid is traditionally cleaned calamari with the fins on.

    It is priced to compete against the other brands of imported loligo squid found throughout the country. This brand is 100% net weight, with no water or fillers added to bring

    product up to net weight. Comparisons often show that using the Assoluti brand will be a much better value than a similar imported Loligo squid.

    Experience the Difference

    P U F F P A S T R Y D O U G H

    Features and BenefitsThe flaky texture of Heritage Ovens Puff Pastry squares begins with laminating the dough. Lamination, the process of repeatedly alternating rolled layers of chilled shortening and pastry dough, causes the pastry to puff up during baking. The steam entrapped in the shortening between the dough layers causes a physical separation of the dough layers making them light and flaky.

    Puff Pastry takes standard meals to a gourmet level and allows chefs to create unique dishes and signature items that command a higher menu price. From squares to twists, to pockets to tarts, the possibilities are endless.

    The flaky layers of Heritage Ovens Puff Pastry Dough turns everyday tarts, appetizers and pot-pies into gourmet menu offerings commanding higher price points. Experience the difference with Heritage Ovens Puff Pastry Dough!

    Helpful HintsKeep potatoes from turning brown after peeling.After peeling, store potatoes in water within the walk-in cold box. Use an air-tight lid if possible.

    Keep potatoes from sprouting.Dont store potatoes near onions, bananas, or any other fruit. This actually hastens sprouting. It is also best to store potatoes in a breathable sack and make sure your potatoes are completely dry before storing.

    Brunch has always been a popular forum for biscuits, and this year theyve really been taking off. Gourmet options like lardo biscuits, peanut-butter-bacon biscuits and apple-brown-sugar biscuits are gracing menus all over the nation.

    A great new way to capitalize on this trend is to run is a build your own biscuit bar. Concepts like Chipotle, Subway and Your Pie have made it popular to build your meal the way you like, so why not try the trend? Market and run your biscuit bar on game day mornings (Saturday and Sunday) and if you serve alcohol tie it into a Bloody Mary Bar. Or, add it to your catering list as a way to inspire customers to book holiday parties in the morning or mid-day instead of in the evening. Here are a few ideas for your new biscuit bar feature:
