King's Pizza,
Inc. was founded in 1978 by Thomas Griffin and his partner,
Richard Dubro. Tom and Rick went to school together and
frequently visited Rick's parents cabin up in Cedarville,
Michigan. While on one of their many excursions up north,
they frequented a little pizzeria called Kings where they
had the most incredible tasting pizza. Both Tom and Rick
were entrepreneurial types and saw an opportunity when it
was presented. They learned the business and bought the
recipe from the owners of that tiny little pizzeria, John
and Lisa Wagner, and started King's Pizza Inc. in the Detroit
area.
Their first
store was located in St. Clair Shores, Mi in 1978 but had
a kitchen fire in 1980 and had to relocate due to inadequate
insurance coverage. In 1979, they purchased a building in
Detroit at Seven Mile and Schoenherr and worked it very
hard. They also opened another King's Pizza in Roseville.
In 1984 Tom and Rick dissolved their partnership. Rick kept
the Detroit location which he later sold. He now owns and
operates a restaurant with a different name near Traverse
City, Michigan.
Tom kept the
Roseville location and later expanded that store and added
two others. King's Pizza IV, is located in Clinton Township
and is co-owned by Jonathan Roberts. Tom's latest addition
is King's Pizza III, Inc. in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
This store was opened in 1992. Scott Lewis shares ownership
at that location. Both Jon and Scott are former managers
of Griffin's Roseville location. King's Pizza, Inc. is independently
owned and operated. It is not a national franchise... one
of the few independents left!
Over the years,
Tom has expanded and perfected his menu. His pizzas have
received numerous awards and his customers keep coming back
for more! King's Chicago Style pizza is a "must to
try". With sales of over 1000 pies per week with a
