Maia Pizza

Maia Pizza is a Romanian pizza concept built purely for delivery. The star of the menu is pinsa romana — a dough made from a mix of wheat, soy, and rice flour, natural sourdough, and long cold fermentation, which keeps it crispy on the outside and airy inside even after it reaches the customer's door. It differs from an ordinary pizzeria in that there's no dining room or table service: the whole operation is built around making and dispatching food, so you don't need expensive premises on a busy street but rather an efficient kitchen wired into delivery channels.

As a franchisee you get a license to the brand, a proven cloud-kitchen format, and the know-how of the parent company, Sufro — from recipes and prep to operating procedures, launch support, and marketing assets. The finished dough is supplied centrally, so you don't run your own development or fermentation. What stays on you is the kitchen space and its fit-out, hiring and training the team, daily operations, delivery, and local promotion. Furthermore, HQ expects you to run the branch personally for the first few months — you can't jump into this remotely.
