Business is Up For Pizza World Since Moving From Deer Creek to Shrewsbury

Since moving to Shrewsbury about a year ago, Pizza World’s business has been up, owner/manager Tim Miller said.

Pizza World moved out of the Deer Creek Center before the center was redeveloped with Ross Dress for Less, Joann’s Fabrics, Buy Buy Baby, Marshalls and other large national retailers as anchors.

Miller said the new space, at 7504 Murdoch Avenue, is smaller than his Deer Creek location but business from the nearby neighborhood has made up for it.

Miller is 25 and has worked at the shop since he was 16. He and Virgil Avamzado bought the store from Robert Goombas in January 2012. Since then Avamzado has left, leaving Miller as the only owner.

He added beer last summer, and said it didn’t add greatly to his business. The pizza itself seems to be the draw.

“Everyone says the best part of our pizza is the dough, made here fresh, daily,” Miller said.
