When meeting Roger Howard for the first time, it becomes clear what a large part the Donatos Pizza chain has played in his life. Just 13 years old when he began working for Donatos as a dishwasher, Roger steadily grew within the ranks to become Vice-President of Operations. Although he eventually retired as VP after 36 years with the company, his story with Donatos didn't end there. Roger made a move back to the customer service side of the pizza operation, opening his own store in 2007 in Lewis Center, OH, a suburb just outside of Columbus. After opening this store, Roger soon found a new piece of cooking equipment, the newly developed Avantec double-belted ovens, which helped him to improve upon his already high quality standards and business model, making his store one of the top eight stores in terms of production within the fast-growing 200 store Donatos franchise.
