“When life gives you lemons … make lemonade.” But what about, “When the economy gives you rising food costs … make … pizza?” OK, so it doesn’t have the same ring to it, but this could be the motto for executives at Kraft Pizza Co.’s Glenview, Ill., headquarters.
“It” is the family pride and tradition that are as much a part of Home Run Inn Pizza Inc., Woodridge, Ill., as the all-natural ingredients the 60-year-old company uses to make its award-winning frozen pizzas.
Kraft Foods asked Little Chute, N.Y.'s Village Board, to approve the rezoning of land to allow the company to grow its local pizza-production facility by 25 percent.
