ABOUT JIM JOHNSON

A native of Detroit, Michigan, Jim Johnson got a taste of the food service business early on working at a McDonald’s as a teenager. After discovering Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health by L. Ron Hubbard, Jim unlocked the confidence to fulfill his lifelong passion—achieving the American Dream by owning his own business. In 1975, he established the first MrJims.Pizza in Michigan. A family trip to the Dallas area revealed it was a “pizza-less” city, so in the late 1970s, he opened another shop there and was soon selling franchises throughout Texas and beyond. Jim drew upon his experience at McDonald’s to develop a system of uniform food preparation to keep the customer experience consistent throughout the growing franchise. According to Jim, no matter how you slice it, top-quality ingredients and distinctive crust made Mr. Jim’s a standout among countless competitors. Mr. Jim’s was also the first pizza chain to implement the idea of ordering online, boosting the number of pies delivered into an entirely new range.

To date, MrJims.Pizza has 46 locations across five states with all the ingredients in place for a whole lot more.
