Pagliacci Pizza is a popular pizza company that started in Seattle, Washington. It has grown to have 26 different pizza places in the King County and Snohomish areas, mostly in Seattle.
The very first Pagliacci Pizza opened its doors on February 19, 1979. This first spot was located in Seattle's University District. Over the years, this original location was updated many times. It finally closed in July 2018. Pagliacci Pizza offers several ways to enjoy their food. You can get pizza delivered, eat inside their restaurants, or grab a quick pizza by the slice. A fun part of their restaurants is the Italian movie posters that decorate the walls. On November 1, 2012, Pagliacci Pizza opened a special new restaurant. It was Seattle's first stand-alone pizzeria to be LEED-certified in the Madison Park neighborhood. This means it was built to be very eco-friendly.
Being Eco-Friendly
Pagliacci Pizza has been working hard to be more friendly to the environment. They use pizza boxes and other packaging that can be composted. This means the materials can break down naturally and help the earth. They also buy "green power" from companies like Seattle City Light and Puget Sound Energy. This helps support energy that comes from clean sources.
Since 2011, Pagliacci Pizza's boxes have been made from special materials. These materials come from local forests that are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. This group makes sure that forests are managed in a way that protects them for the future. The boxes also use recycled paper. Some of their restaurants, like those in Wallingford, Madison Park, and Old Bellevue, were built using materials that are good for the environment.
