How Biscuitville Started
The company started in 1966 in Burlington, North Carolina. It was first called Mountainbrook Fresh Bread & Milk. Later, it became known as Pizzaville.
The founder, Maurice Jennings, began by selling bread. He then started making pizzas. Maurice wanted to use his business in the mornings too. So, his family developed a special biscuit recipe.
Soon, the company sold more biscuits than pizzas! Because of this, they opened their first restaurant that sold only biscuits. This new restaurant was called "Biscuitville" and was in Danville, Virginia.
In 2007, the main office for Biscuitville moved to Greensboro, North Carolina. Today, Biscuitville continues to grow. As of April 2024, there are more than 82 locations.
