Making Dough on Main Street
My name is Paul Tamasi and I own a pizza shop called Angelina's. It is located on Main Street in Cambridge, Vermont. I have been in business there for 24 years. The economy my be in recession but I'm still moving ahead and making dough. I have grown my business to over 100% over the past 24 years. that is an average of about a 5% increase per year over the past 24 years. This year I am 3% ahead of last year. My pizza business is thriving. I have the best pizza and I always give out good meal deals. On Monday nights you can get pizzas at Angelina's for half price. That means you can get a large cheese pizza for just $5.25. I am always there to contribute to the local schools and other local organizations. This generosity gained me "The "Restaurant Neighbor Award" for the state of Vermont. It's not just having good food that has kept me in business for 24 years. It is the involvement in the local community that is so important. There are approximately 2000 people in my community. The other contributing factor to my success is the location. I am located on 48 Main Street in Cambridge, Vermont.
