HISTORY

__

In 1958 Frank and Dan Karney open the first Pizza Hut in Wichita, Kansas. In 1972 there were 1000 Pizza Hut restaurants throughout the USA. Then in 1973 Pizza Hut went international. Later on, in 1977 PepsiCo buys Pizza Hut, with 3,000 U.S. units. In 1989 the Pizza Hut Jobs Plus program expands Nationwide to employ more than 10,000 individuals with physical and developmental disabilities. The Jobs Plus program is recognized as the largest corporate initiative of its kind in the food service industry. On October 6, 1997, Tricon Global Restaurants, Inc. was formed as a result of a spin-off from PepsiCo Inc. of the three restaurant concepts - Pizza Hut, KFC, and Taco Bell. Pizza Hut launches "Totally New Pizzas", a quality initiative putting sliced, fresh vegetables and meatier meat toppings on pizzas.
