Aramark invests in fast-casual pizza concept

Foodservice vendor Aramark has invested in fast-casual concept Oath Pizza, bringing the 10-unit chain into its fold of noncommercial dining venues as part of a “strategic partnership.” 

Catalyzed by its Aramark connection, Oath Pizza, which specializes in grilled thin-crust pies, has opened units at hospital and business sites, and plans to do so on college campuses later this month. As of now, the concept serves the Boston and Washington, D.C., areas and has one unit in New York City.

“Our partnership with Oath will further enable us to provide a high quality, convenient, healthy and personalized menu option, not to mention a great-tasting pizza with a purpose,” Victor Crawford, Aramark’s COO, said in a statement. 

Details of the investment were not disclosed.
