Hungry Howie's Franchise Partners to Bring More Locations to Houston

Texas-based franchisees Caleb Guajardo and Chris Thompson have found success with Hungry Howie’s pizza. Their company, Pizza with a Purpose, has two open restaurants in the Houston area, and another scheduled to open in January. Now they have an additional agreement to open two more locations by 2024, giving them five locations.

“We’re eager to bring more of Hungry Howie’s and its one-of-a-kind products and service to our home in Katy, Texas,” said Caleb Guajardo. “Bringing five Hungry Howie’s locations to Katy is just the starting point. Hungry Howie’s has proven to be more than a successful business but a brand we can partner to grow with. As the brand continues to flourish, we’ll continue to spread Hungry Howie's cheesy goodness throughout Houston.”

Thompson was first introduced to Hungry Howie’s pizza where he grew up in Michigan. He said he was attracted to not only the great pizza but the company’s commitment to giving back to the community. He was also impressed with Hungry Howie’s back-end support system for franchisees.

Thompson came to Texas with the brand and formed Pizza with a Purpose in 2019. As partners, Thompson has more than 20 years of restaurant and business experience and Guajardo has a close connection to the community. They have supported local schools, organizations, charities, and other groups throughout Katy.
