Noble Roman’s Inc. is a fast‐casual restaurant franchisor specializing in pizza and Italian‐style menu offerings. The company licenses its Noble Roman’s Pizza brand as well as its Tuscano’s Italian Style Sub brand to franchisees and operates a limited number of company‐owned locations. Through these partnerships, it provides training, marketing support and proprietary recipes to ensure consistency across its network.
The company’s menu centers on large pies, pizza by the slice and hand‐tossed dough products such as pretzels, breadsticks and flatbread sandwiches. Noble Roman’s emphasizes fresh dough made from scratch at its food production facilities and offers a range of appetizers, salads and beverages to complement its core pizza offerings. Its modular kitchen systems are designed to fit within diverse real‐estate footprints, from mall kiosks and convenience stores to standalone fast‐casual outlets.
Founded in 1972 in Bloomington, Indiana, Noble Roman’s established its corporate headquarters in Indianapolis, where it oversees supply‐chain operations and product development. Over the decades, the company has evolved from a small regional chain into a franchisor with streamlined store formats and centralized dough manufacturing. Its history includes periods of domestic expansion as well as strategic shifts toward licensing and franchise fee revenue.
As of today, Noble Roman’s products are available through dozens of franchised and company locations across the United States, with a focus on nontraditional venues such as travel plazas, university campuses and military bases. By offering turnkey store concepts and ongoing operational support, the company continues to grow its footprint in diverse markets and seeks to leverage its established brand recognition within the quick‐service pizza sector.
