PizzaRev holds grand opening, gives proceeds to local nonprofit

JACKSON, Tenn. — A new business opens in north Jackson and offers some of their first proceeds back to the Hub City.

Build-your-own-pizza restaurant PizzaRev officially opened its Vann Drive location Thursday.

For the grand opening, 100 percent of the money from each guest’s first pizza is being donated to the STAR Center, an organization that benefits Jackson residents in need by providing services in education, employment and quality of life.

“We know that we’re not where we are by ourselves. Clearly PizzaRev knows the same thing, and any time we have an opportunity to collaborate to benefit others, we want to do that,” said Dave Bratcher, president of the STAR Center.

Jackson marks PizzaRev’s first location in the state of Tennessee.
