HBCU Athletes on Pizza Empire Helping Underserved Communities
As featured on the New York Times, Good Morning America, USA Today and Forbes, the famed Black-owned gourmet pizza chain, Slim + Husky’s have now expanded to deliver nationally to take America by storm with their hip-hop-inspired pizzas. We would love to arrange an interview with you and the remarkable friends/partners that dish out innovative pizza creations to underserved communities. The three best friends share the mission to empower communities while using pizza as their vehicle to engage, offering quality food, employment opportunities, and community events as the company expands across the nation. Slim & Husky's was ranked #5 out of 101 in The Daily Meal's 101 Best Pizzas in America.
The three Tennessee State University grads and football players (Clint Gray – CMO, Derrick Moore- Chief Development Officer & EJ Reed – CEO) started Slim + Husky's to serve unique pies and provide jobs to their neighborhood in North Nashville. Now, they have expanded locations across the country and offer build-your-own pizzas, take-out options, catering services, and national delivery. This includes opening the first Black-owned restaurant to open on Broadway in Nashville.
