Kate and Tom first heard about the brand from Kate&#8217;s brother, Steve Gesicki. When he was a student at BGSU, Steve used to be a delivery driver at PIta Pit. He worked his way up through the ranks and eventually became a General Manager. During Steve&#8217;s time as General Manager, the location went up for sale. So, the couple decided to pair their entrepreneurial personalities with Steve&#8217;s experience with the brand.&#8220;We decided with his Pita Pit experience and our business experience, we could make it work,&#8221; Kate told the Sentinel-Tribune.Since signing with the brand, they&#8217;ve seen great success. Kate and Steve now own and operate four Pita Pit locations in Ohio. Established in 2005, Pita Pit now boasts over 500 locations worldwide.
