Unique Pizza and Subs Signs Agreement On First of Five Charlotte Locations


PITTSBURGH, Oct. 12, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Unique Pizza and Subs Corporation (Pink Sheets:UPZS) a Delaware Corporation, announces signing on another franchisee in the highly attractive and rapidly growing market of Charlotte, North Carolina. Ken Kraemer has purchased the franchise rights to a new location in the Lake Norman area, north of Charlotte. Site surveys have been completed and negotiations have begun on a lease within a high-traffic retail area. Unique Pizza and Subs is looking forward to rapid development within the region with four additional owners already committed to opening stores. James Vowler, Unique Pizza and Subs' President and CEO has been looking to develop the Charlotte market for some time; "I have always felt that the North Carolina market would be a perfect market for us to expand our business in. One of my goals when I founded the company was to expand throughout the southeast. We have many loyal investors and friends of the business in North Carolina, and we feel very optimistic that this will be one of our most successful markets."

Ken Kraemer intends to have his store open by early December. "We are very excited about getting started with our new Unique Pizza and Subs franchise. Jon Amato from the corporate office was very helpful in assisting us with the scouting of a premier location. If it were possible, I'd be ready to open tomorrow!"

Unique Pizza and Subs is a company with a lot of experience at the helm. This company offers a great chance for investors who are interested in finding a stock that is poised to move forward. UPZS now has stores either open, or ready to open soon, in many attractive markets throughout the U.S. They can now effectively convert existing pizza shops in these areas into Unique Pizza and Subs to gain market share and provide the rapid expansion that investors have been waiting for. This activity is elevating the 1-12 month price targets on the stock.

About Unique Pizza and Subs Corporation, a Delaware Corporation

Since the beginning of its development stages back in 1991 Unique Pizza and Subs clearly has separated themselves from the other major pizza franchises. They needed to have more than just the best product in the industry; they needed a way to grow rapidly in any market. They noticed all the major pizza franchises were predominately located in only highly populated markets, leaving a tremendously large pizza eating population only serviced by independent pizza shops. Two of the main reasons the major pizza franchises do not locate in smaller markets is because of their inferior quality of their product compared to the local independents and their corporate ownership is not usually welcomed. To succeed in a smaller market, a pizza shop needs to have these key elements: a high quality and consistently made product (all of their recipes were designed to have the quality of a "mom and pop" pizza shop with the consistency of a major franchise), good, professional and friendly customer service (UPZS is the only publicly traded pizza franchise that will have all of its locations orders routed to their professionally staffed Customer Response Center), and an owner that lives, works and pays taxes in that small market (all of the conversions of independent pizza shops into Unique Pizza and Subs will retain the same local ownership).
