Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, was today ranked No. 105 on the 28th PROFIT 500, the definitive list of Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies, ranked annually by PROFIT Magazine and Canadian Business. The PROFIT 500 ranks Canadian business by their five-year revenue growth.
Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria made the 2016 PROFIT 500 with a five-year revenue growth of 680% and its ranking on this year’s list speaks to the company’s steady growth and expansion in the marketplace, with 28 locations throughout Western Canada and in Ontario.

Famoso continues to be committed to bringing the art of authentic Neapolitan pizza to Canada, with a focus on using fresh, locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. Adapting and evolving with trends and market expectations to stay relevant in the hearts and minds of team members and consumers alike also remain a priority for the Famoso team.
“We are so honoured and proud to be included in this year’s PROFIT 500 ranking,” says Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria CEO and co-founder Justin Lussier. “This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire Famoso family, from our team members to our loyal customers. Since our first trip to Naples in 2005, we’ve focused on bringing the city’s vibrant culture - and of course authentic Neapolitan pizzas - to our restaurants, and we stick by that mission through our food and drink in the local communities in which we have a presence.”
