Born in 2001 from a dream to make gourmet pizzas, the first Crust Pizza store opened in Annandale, New South Wales. With the goal to branch out into another state, the second Crust store opened shortly after in Richmond, Victoria, both of which still operate today as a network of over 130+ stores across the country.
Taking the pizza industry by storm, Crust became iconically known for their innovative product offering and famous gourmet pizza flavors. Winning International Pizza Awards for their pizza flavours, Crust has cemented themselves as market leaders in their product offering and famous flavour profiles such as the Peri Peri Chicken Pizza. Crust was one of the first QSR brands to offer Gluten Free and Low Carb bases, a Healthy Choice Range in 2015, and Vegan Cheese in 2016. Continuing to dominate in market trends, Crust is now a market leader in Plant-Based Protein and Vegan Pizza ranges within the QSR Industry, being a finalist in the 2022 Vegan Nourish Awards.
At Crust we are obsessed with quality. We pride ourselves on using real, fresh ingredients on every pizza. From hand rolling and cutting our pizza dough, to hand seasoning fresh chicken breasts, lamb, and beef mince through the oven each morning, slicing each piece of fresh onion, mushroom, capsicum and every other ingredient that you receive on each pizza slice, our Crust Pizza Makers take pride in making the freshest, tastiest pizzas using the best quality ingredients every day. It’s passion that sets Crust apart in market, and what drives our stores to bring people closer through delicious food that’s prepared with love. We belong to our local communities because we’re locals too.
