Hunt Brothers Becomes Official Pizza of Nashville Predators

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Hunt Brothers Pizza formed a corporate partnership with the Nashville Predators and Bridgestone Arena to be the official pizza vendor through the 2011-12 season. Through this partnership, Hunt Brothers Pizza will be served at five concession stands throughout the arena, including at the main entrance and Club Level.

The pizza varieties available will include classic cheese, pepperoni and veggie. The Nashville-based company said its pizza will be well-suited to the concession stands, since the product is easy to prepare and serve.

Hunt Brothers Pizza will offer its Hunk A Pizza -- a quarter of a 12-inch pizza – as well as whole 12-inch pizzas at all regular-season Predators games and all Bridgestone Arena events, including the CMA Awards, concerts and other major events. The partnership kicked off at yesterday’s game where the Nashville Predators took on the St. Louis Blues.

“As a company headquartered in Nashville, Hunt Brothers Pizza is excited to offer our great- tasting pizzas to hockey fans and concert attendees,” stated Scott Hunt, chief executive officer of the company. “This strategic relationship will serve to help grow our brand by driving new customers to all of our convenience store locations in Tennessee and across the region.”

In addition, Hunt Brothers Pizza will receive special recognition on Bridgestone Arena’s JumboTron, including segments such as Predators player profiles and in-game contests where a lucky section or row will receive free pizzas, according to the company.

Hunt Brothers Pizza currently has more than 6,000 locations in 28 states.
