Pizza Today - July 2023 - 3

Commentary with Jeremy White
On the Rise
O
ne of the most
exciting features we do
annually is our " Rising
Stars in the Pizza
Industry. " Th at's where
we take a look at up-and-coming
pizza makers who are forging new
paths and setting new standards
in their respective cities. Some are
very young, like 18-year-old Gemma
Cataldo from Indiana. Others
got started in the pizza business a
touch later in life. Regardless, the
passionate pursuit of pizza perfection
fuels these men and women.
Th ey stand out and we are pleased
to point them out for the industry
to see.
Th is year we took a diff erent
approach than last year. Flip to
page 40 and you'll see a handful of
the pizzeria powerhouses we chose
to highlight for 2023. But since
we have only a set amount of print
space, we're off ering additional
online content on PizzaToday.com
where you'll fi nd several other
highlighted rising stars. So be sure
to visit the site to dive a bit deeper
into all the outstanding pizzerias
featured!
While you're online, don't forget
to hop on over to PizzaExpo.com,
either. Th ere you can register to
attend Pizza & Pasta Northeast
2023 in Atlantic City. Th is year's
show is October 1-2. We have a
dynamic lineup of educational
speakers for you, as well as a show
fl oor packed with exhibiting
booths, demonstrations, etc.
Lastly, I wanted to update you
on the PIE Awards initiative. Our
Awards Program Manager has
heard from several of you saying
you need more time to upload
the necessary assets required for
entry. Ask and you shall receive!
Th e deadline has been extended to
September 15. But don't let that
extension keep you from jumping
on it now, because entry does take
just a bit of time to complete.
Looking forward to seeing you
in Atlantic City this fall!
