DEMETRIOS PIZZA HOUSE, INC.
BRADENTON, FLORIDA

Immigrants from Greece, Demetrios and Helen along with son Gus and Helen’s sister Paula, moved to Bradenton in 1976 in search of a better life. With recipes from the old country and help from family, “Demetrios’ Pizza House” was formed. Working diligently, they quickly attracted customers from all over the area, who came for the great food, outstanding service and low prices. 1982 was the landmark year when the group realized a dream and became American citizens. As Bradenton grew, so did the family business. In 1987, a small waiting area addition was completed. The family worked harder than ever, and the business continued to grow. “Community involvement is a priority for us” says Gus. “We live here. We work here, and we contribute to our town.” By 1993, the family felt it was important that the appearance of the restaurant be upgraded to keep up with the changing times. Demetrios’ Pizza remained involved in the community, and the business continued to thrive. After more than 30 years in business, building a loyal customer following and being active in the community, Demetrios’ Pizza realized the American Dream of success and recognition by being named “2007 Small Business of the Year” by the Manatee Chamber of Commerce. Immigrating from Greece, in search of a better life, Demetrios, Helen and Paula came to Bradenton in 1976. With recipes from the old country and help from family, “Demetrios’ Pizza House” was formed. They quickly attracted customers from all over the area who came for the great food, outstanding service and exceptional value. 1982 was a landmark year as the group applied for and obtained American citizenship. As Bradenton grew so did Demetrios’. Over the years several small remodels and renovations were executed to help suit the growing business. The family working harder than ever now saw the need for a major overhaul of the existing property. In the summer of 2000, the immense change came in the form of a complete roof-off reconstruction and enlargement of the restaurant. 2007 brought the family full circle as the “American Dream” had been realized. Demetrios’ Pizza House was awarded the coveted “Small Business of the Year” award by the Manatee Chamber of Commerce.
