How Nell's tripled orders for its 22-inch pizza

New York-style pizza, made in Manchester. Nell's moved delivery and catering onto its own Slerp ordering site. Within five months, orders for its 22-inch pizza had tripled.

20+ hrs saved a month on deliveries Staff time that went back into the rest of the business.
5 months to triple From the switch to three times the big-pizza orders.

New York slices, made in Manchester

Most pizza in the UK was Neapolitan. Jonny wanted to make something different. Eighteen months of research, trials and trips across the pond followed. So much pizza eating.

The result was Nell's. New York-style slices, ice-cream sandwiches and craft drinks. The pizza is baked longer, at a lower temperature, on organic flour from Shipton Mill. Thin, crisp, charred. And it comes in 14 inches or 22.

Then catering took off. Marketplaces struggled to deliver pizzas that size, and customers noticed. Big orders took hours to manage, with no proper system behind the deliveries.
